Easter is nearly here!

I was in the mood for some Easter cards today, the images were coloured ages ago so I just needed to put the cards together. There's something ever so special about this time of year with all the new growth in the garden and lighter nights.

Onto my first card, this image was given to me (ta Mandy x) and I've teamed her with some pretty Prima Easter papers and some pearlescent card I found in my card box that must be at least 5 years old. I tend to use matt Bazzill card but thought this suited this card...

Supplies:
Image - given to me by the lovely Mandy
Papers - Celebrate With Jack & Jill by Prima
Pearls - The Glitterpot
Netting - stash
Bakers Twine - Crafty Emma's Store
Tools - Oval Nestabilities, Martha Stewart butterfly punch

Onto my second card, again, the image was a pressie from Mandy (cheers lady). I have teamed this Tilda with some beautiful lace (thank you Jennie x) and pretty Memory box papers. I think this is going to be my nan's Easter card as I won't be able to see her at Easter to give her some flowers.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Little Claire's - Spring Celebrations
Sparkles Forum - Springtime

Supplies:
Image - again given to me by the lovely Mandy
Papers - Minuet by Memory Box
Lace - gift from my lovely friend Jennie
Ribbon - stash
Flowers - Dies to Die For
Buttons - Dovecraft from Crafty Emma's Store
Pearls - The Glitterpot

This is my third and final card for today, I have used an uber cute Penny Black bunny and some gorgeous Basic Grey Hopscotch papers...

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Supplies:
Image - from an Easter set by Penny Black
Sentiment - Ribbon sentiment from Pink Petticoat
Papers - Hopscotch by Basic Grey
Flowers - Crafty Emma's Store and Wild Orchid Crafts
Ribbon - Anitas
Tools - Deckle Edged Nestabilities
