Welcome to my Corner of the World

I cannot believe we are heading toward Easter already, it seems just a short time ago we celebrated the New Year and I packed away the Christmas decorations for another year!

Today I am using the Easter Bunny Bundle for my card, this is such a cute stamp set, with 3 little bunnies, some cute Easter eggs and other useful decorative stamps and greetings, including a little grass stamp!. My card colors come from the Dandy Designs decorative paper – this was a Sale-a-bration freebie that is sadly no longer available, however there are other decorative papers available that would work just as well!
