Easter cards.......

 Do you ever have this vision for a card and just want to make it work! Well, I have some special ladies that I wanted to make some Easter cards for....I had this idea of a box/envelope with an acetate window. A little box to tuck my Easter bunny card into. I had to play around a bit to get the right template, but with a bit of adjusting and redoing....it worked out for me.

 Two of my special friends love blues and soft mauve and so with that in mind I started to make all my flowers in their favourite colours! I  also watercoloured the meadow that my little bunny is sitting in...added some white gel pen tiny flowers and lots of glitter.
 Here is a picture of all four cards that I finally finished up with the envelopes to match!
Lots of work, but I love to take the time to make special cards for special friends! And since these ladies are beautiful card makers too, I know they will love them! They inspire me too with the cards they make. And that is what this hobby is all about!!
Have a wonderful week.
