Wishing "Ewe" a Happy Easter!!

Hello Friends!! I don't know about you but boy am I ready for Spring!! The temperature here has been unseasonably COLD!!  Yesterday we woke up to 9 degrees...now in NY I expected that but not here in VA!!

Today I am popping in to share a card for this week's Shining the Light challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs!!  We are thinking warm and Spring!!!

This week's challenge is:

Make and Easter Card or Project!!

I decided to make a card that was not too frilly for a couple rather than just plain feminine.  I used darker masculine colors but still added a couple flourishes and a bow.  I just love this little lamb from The Shepherd!!  I colored him with copics and sponged the background.  The lamb is framed with ODBD's Elegant Ovals.

The shape of the card uses Spellbinders Resplendent Rectangles as does the inner  framing.  The inside of that frame was cut out and lattice was adhered on the inside using Spellbinders Lattice . Behind the lattice an old olive panel. The bow is Mauve May Arts Silk ribbon.  The flourishes are created using Cheery Lynn's Fanciful Flourish.

Card Recipe:
ODBD Stamps Used: The Shepherd
ODBD Dies Used:  Elegant Oval Dies
Dies:  Spellbinders Resplendent Rectangles, Spellbinders Lattice, Spellbinders Banners, Cheery Lynn's Fanciful Flourish
Accessories:  The bow is Mauve May Arts Silk ribbon tied with the bow easy.

The Shepherd

I also made this card, When I think of how Jesus died for me, I think of the Song Amazing Grace!!

I used this month's ODBD release Chalkboard- Amazing Grace . The paper is from Echo Park Vintage Collection. The border is created with Spellbinders Parisian Accents.
