Thinking about Easter


Over the past couple of weeks I've made a lot of Easter cards and thought, now that my charity sales are over, I'd start to show some.

I used a card blank that already had a fancy cut edge which I dusted with a mix of tattered rose and worn lipstick distress ink, using the same to ink up the Tim Holtz script stamp. The Penny Black sparklers stamp and the sentiment were inked with memento tuxedo black. Cross and dove are from unknown stickers bought long ago.

Colours are for The play date cafe 173:

As usual, difficult to get the white to look white on the photo.


This is for:
