Easter Parade

Hello all, Here's another Easter Card. I wanted to do a bright sunny one this time and put some daffs on. The beautiful stamp is called "Easter Parade" by Tina Wenke. It's perfect for a celebration of Easter and there's so much detail to colour that I bet it will look completely different in another colour combo. The gorgeous daffodils are from Wild Orchid Crafts. 

The paper is another one that came with magazine. I can't believe I forgot to look what design it was before I threw strip away with it on! We had the builders in yesterday and it was SO hectic. I didn't get any crafting done and I was completely shattered by tea time! So I'm just glad that I have managed to finish this card and enter it into the MAWT Challenge. It would have been shame to miss it when I've used their wonderful Sketch.

Moving Along With The Times Challenge 93

I had a go at decorating the inside. I'm not 100% happy with it but I'm not going to be too hard on myself as it's my first attempt! But to begin with I papered too far into centre and it wouldn't close! Luckily I managed to trim it and correct it. My daughter bought me these gorgeous Anita's gold butterfly stickers. They are great for decorating inside cards and are SO pretty!

Finally, is it just me who hates those 'Scratch and Sniff' Cards. I had a 'Filthy Cities' one in both my TV Guide and my History Magazine. I didn't even scratch it!!! (honest!) and yet my magazines smell of an '18th Century Tannery', 'Pong de Paris', 'Marie Antionette's Perfume' and last and definitely worst of all! 'Sewage Sludge' !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   Yuk .....!!!
