Pretty Floral Easter Card

 Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How is your week going? We have had some nice weather. Today isn't so nice. Today is also vaccination day for us. This afternoon we will be heading off to the vaccination centre. We were lucky and managed to get appointments together. 

I have been making Easter cards. The Mother's Day cards I have made are in the post. 

I just love the Small Flower die and the Small leaves die from the John Next Door range. I used card for the flowers that I had coloured with my Spectrum Noir Sparkle pens. They are no good for colouring anymore but the ink in them makes gorgeous papers. The leaves were cut with paper I found in my Snippets stash. 

This sentiment was made with some of the Stencil Sentiments die set from the John Next Door range. I think I heard John say that some more words and phrases are coming in this style. 

There you have it a pretty floral Easter card. I think I have all my Easter cards made now. I really ought to make some more Christmas cards. This is the first blog post I have completed on our new laptop. I am taking quite a while to get used to it. A friend helped my out by making me some watermarks. 

Enjoy the rest of the week

Happy Crafting

Easter Wishes pretty floral card.

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How was your weekend? We had a quiet one as usual. On Saturday evening we do try to watch a film. There are a lot to choose from on Netflix etc. Last week we saw The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. This week we watched Late Night. We had some good news. We managed to get a Council tax refund for my parents as they are in receipt of Attendance Allowance. This has taken 6 months but we did get a whole years refund. Also our daughter went for a Covid test which came back negative. She was feeling poorly she is much better now.  

I have been busy crafting but I can't share what I have been working on just yet. I found myself with a bit of time on Friday so I decided to make a few more Easter cards. 

This is a DL Easter card.  The backing paper is from Polkadoodles.  I printed too much for a Design Team Project it was too pretty not to use. 

I used the Stencil Sentiments die set from the John Next Door range to make the sentiment. It is great how you can use the dies to make different sentiments. 

I used the Small Flowers and the Small Leaves die sets from the John Next Door range to make the flower spray. I made three cards like this and I cut the dies three times. This meant that I could match the leaves on each card. The dots are cut with the leaves die. The dots in the centre of the flowers was made with some Pearl PVA glue from Creative Expressions. All the flowers and leaves were made with scraps of paper. 

I do want to make some more Easter cards. The next thing I need to make is an Anniversary card for my hubby it will be 39 years this year. I wonder if we will be able to celebrate next year. 

I would like to enter the following challenges:
