Easter traditions

 Wax resist dyed eggs -a beutiful tradition for easter in Croatia. Are they not amazing? a real art to create. Over 250 were made for Caritas by my sisters friend who has continued the this Croatian tradition -the true spirit of Easter. The eggs need to be white to take the colour but I love the texture of just the waxed ones (when you dye the eggs after painting with wax it melts & resists the colour). The painting is done with a special needle & to see the hand move to form the patterns is something else. It will be difficult to crack these beauties but the tradition & game we play is to each have an egg to bang together with each other, if it cracks you eat it & the one that dosen't keeps cracking the others & is then the winner, I hope I am so I can keep mine for  a bit to admire & apparently after some time it becomes hollow as long it has no cracks.

 A weaved Easter basket I made for Teya's easter egg hunt & pic of it full after she hunted, it held together real well!

Happy Easter

 Easter Blessings to you & your loved ones & hoping you make happy memories with family & friends over the Easter holidays.
Stay safe, be happy & keepstamping!



This card was inspired by the cutest little card on pg 80 of the Idea Book & Catalogue. The clouds are created with the cupcake punch. Daffodil Delight & Elegant Eggplant to me are perfect colours for easter, very royal.
The bird is from "Sweetheart" stamp set, Happy Easter greeting from "Teeny Tiny Sentiments" & the flower from "Itty Bitty Bits" & I just drew the stem with a marker.

early morning easter hunt & another scallop envelope basket

Up early this am to watch Teya collect her eggs -so much chocolate!!! I made her this cute basket & found her favourite boxed chocolates Guylian, packaged especially for Easter, I like Guylian as well & can't wait for to open & share & to see the chick & egg shaped chocolates, how cute!

Hope you are all having a lovely Easter Sunday, xx

Eat Chocolate, Happy Easter & a Birthday

 Happy Easter!
Scallop Envelope Bigz Die. Cut 4 out in Pretty in Pink CS & Embellish with 4 pieces of Melon Mambo DSP from the Brights Patterns Stack,  link for scallop envelope box tutorial on this post here. Eat Chocolate Stamp set, 2 of the images I stamped & combined, I added a Melon Mambo mount using the Decorative Label punch, I also added some Pompom Trim along with a bow tied in Satin Ribbon held together with an Antique Brad.

Teya's BF is having a Birthday tomorrow, we made her the same card I made Teya for hers. Teya chose the colour combo of Marina Mist, Perfect Plum & a little Rose Red.

Easter Cardmaking Class projects

What cute little bunnies & chickies! The bunny on the basket is a case of Renee's, very clever way of using the Heart to Heart punch. The basket is Box die #2 without the lid & a scallop edge & handle added, the DSP is Marina Mist from the Soft Subtles stack.
The super cute little bunny & chick on the Petal Card Punch box that contain a strawberry or caramel choc egg -yum, my favourite at easter, are a case from Stampin' Pretty. Both these projects involved no stamping so the next 2 projects had to for the class, I used the Bunny from 'fOREST fRIENDS" stamp set & "Sweet Summer" (SAB) tone on tone or Versa mark for background stamping on the treat card. I made it to fit & hold a little pack of easter gummy lollies that I found in Coles. The card colour combo, Bashful Blue, Pretty in Pink & Certainly Celery are in the Colour Coach & so very suit easter.

Bunny Hugs treats

I'm making lots of these & just wanted to give you a little preview, as each time I complete 1 I give it away! I was hoping to get them done in many different colours for School before the end of the week, they are pretty simple & quick (except for the cutting out of the bunny & watercolouring/optional), the bags I used to hold the chocs in are small cello's, I made these by just measuring the bags & have the sizes written down, if you would like them pop me an email. The cnr rounder (guide off) is used for the scalloped edge & Spring Bouquet Flower punch for the flowered brad. The handheld punch will punch through all the layers to hold the pouch together with ribbon. If you like this set, you will need to order it before the end of the month as it will be retiring with the Summer Mini!

"Bunny Hugs" Summer Mini

Cute little Bunny! Spring Flowers papers & co-ordinating Cardstock, Spring Bouquet Flower Punch. Happy Easter is from "All Year Cheer 1" (retiring), watercolouring with inks & Aqua Painter. I don't send Easter Cards, but I will send this one to my sister who lives in Croatia.
