Here's last week's, and yes, the bird is on the tilt, I like to think he's feeding rather than dead!
Definitely flat though, the butterflies have glimmer mist on, so look better IRL
So funny, I instantly thought the bird was feeding if that makes you feel better. Such a lovely card.
This challenge is great because I keep seeing items I own which I haven't used. Lilli your stamp is one of them. It looks great and gives me an idea of how to use it.
So Spring or Easter, nice choice this week. Almost everything is coming out of my scraps box too, so I'm off to have a delve now.
Lilliboy, love your card, in particular the pull out section and really love the quote you've used
I can't access blogs at the mo' so unsure what this week's challenge is....Susie A. you've referred to Spring or Easter so I'm assuming we can choose one of the themes and there's no other elements involved?
'people may forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel'
DC8 there was a mention of pastel colours, but the main wording read Easter or spring.
This is a good one for me as I'm doing Easter cards with the youth club girls next week, so I can make my sample up, I was also thinking it's time I started on mine, always need more than I first think. Good challenge.
I liked that style of card Lilliboy and the lovely saying.
Cute bunnies Jampot I used some of those for the Mother's day cards with club, the girls loved them.
Susie, think we got the same stamp set - I'm currently working through them, there are sooooo many!! They are all lovely though and I really don't think there is one I don't like.
Oooh that is lush Trish, very nice use of the Cameo, I really need to get my old robo set up and working again - I am missing out on a lot of pretty die-cut action!
Here is my Easter card for this weeks prompt. My sister showed me how to make the little pocket at Christmas so have used the idea again to add a couple of chocolate bunnies to the card as an Easter treat.

I set mine up again last week, and am so glad I did, everything has changed but it seems so much easier with Studio than the original software. And I have some lovely new files to cut now from the Robo forum!

I love the idea of the pocket on the front of the card, it looks really cute.
That Silhouette die is fabulous Trish, I love the way you've used it. That's another one I have that I haven't got round to using and I'm blaming the scraps box. I'm trying to use up the stuff I've already half cut or made in some way and everything seems to be looking the same. This card is a prime example - another with punched edges, but the scrap box is going down gradually. Sadly, I do have another that's overflowing. Sorry for the rant.
Anyway, Spring for me this week. I was finishing this in the early hours because I couldn't sleep and had to rip it apart because I forgot to put the ribbon on. Now I've noticed I need to touch up a few bits but I won't tell you which in case they aren't too obvious.
Lovely Easter card Barb. Julia, thanks for your kind comment.
Another Spring one from me. By the way, if next weeks prompts are anything to do with bows, flowers, vellum, die cuts or pastels, this is going to have to count for that too.
I haven't stuck the congratulations tag on yet because I might send it as a birthday card or anniversary card, I think it would do for either really.

Philthetog, I love the 'dropper' from the flower, can I ask where you got it from please?
