Happy Easter and a Butterfly Birthday

Happy Easter to you!! I hope you are having a wonderful and relaxing Easter weekend!! We had a gorgeous day yesterday - the forecast showers didn't eventuate and it was still warm enough for short sleeves :-) After a busy few days  - that went very well phew!! -  it was lovely to take some time to relax and recharge the batteries and catch up with friends and family.

And here is a card that was made for a lovely new friend's recent birthday :-)
For inspiration I used last week's sketch from Just Add Ink - you can see the original post with card and  sketch here.

The gold butterfly is the star here with a little sponging of Pistachio Pudding ink underneath. The pom poms added for a little texture and fun :-) I hope she likes it.

Card stock: Calypso Coral, Pistachio Pudding, Whisper White, Gold Foil

Designer Series Paper: Gold Soiree

Inks: Calypso Coral, Pistachio Pudding

Accessories: Big Shot, Butterfly Framelits, Starburst Framelits, Angled Tag Topper Punch, Calypso coral Pom Pom Trim and Seam Binding, Gold Twine

Easter is of course synonymous with chocolate and I do love that we are allowed to indulge our love of it a bit without the usual guilt LOL!! But I did receive this awesome little box of cupcakes from a lovely friend too that I just have to show you - they look too good to eat!!

Wow!! Aren't these just the cutest?!

Such a lot of detail in the grass and nests and the cutest little eggs.

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope that you are having a wonderfully relaxing long weekend full of fun and laughter and good (and not so ) food :-)  Feels like a good time for a dog walk for me lol!

Happy stamping until next time,

Jan
