Easter Greetings

still averaging a card a week... grrr. i'm thinking i need to work on my priorities!! i made this easter card finally, which has been in my head for the last 2 weeks or so. the paper is rayner and i took apart a plastic flower stem and put the petals together, and added a couple of buds. the tag i made myself, and i did a bit of stitching in pink. the inspiration is from the lovely sketch from 2 sketches 4 you this week. i think it's so nice that the ladies there take the time to comment on the submitted cards; its such a nice added bonus, i think!

i leave you with a pic of what we did this weekend. festival season has begun! here's the boy devouring enjoying an extremely greasy, and equally yummy, semi-traditional lunch. we were at the annual easter festival at one of the squares.
it's another gorgeous warm, sunny day here today, so i'm off for my walk! enjoy your day!
