Easter
is next weekend. I always think of Easter as being in April because my youngest
daughter was born April 6 and it happened to be Easter weekend. So, yesterday afternoon I thought I better take the time to make Easter cards for the
ladies in the nursing home that I visit every month. All the cards were made
from paper in my stash – it was a challenge I gave myself. Here’s the first one
I made.
For
this card, the background paper was cut for another project and this piece was
left over. I trimmed it to the size of the card and glued it to a card base.
The light pink in the centre is a piece of very wide ribbon which is held in
place with double sided tape – my preferred method of adhering ribbon. It has a beautiful embossed design on it but hard to see in the photo. The two
other strips were left over from one of the double fold cards I made and they
were each cut about ½” and also added with double sided tape. Then gold
peel-off strips were added along the seams.
Every
card is different so stay tuned for more ideas. That’s all for a cool, windy Monday,
March-21-16.
Cheers
Violet
