Hey there!
It's Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday... LOL sorry, I couldn't help myself!
So we are just a couple days away from Easter and I'm already salivating thinking about that ham dinner and deviled eggs... yum! Oooo and some jellybeans too! ;)
In the meantime I've still got some Easter cards to share. Today I used one of the original Miss Anya's from The Greeting Farm and altered her just a bit by opening up her eyes. I've always thought that this little lady looks so ready for spring with her pretty basket full of tulips. I had a lot of Neapolitan scraps still hanging out on my desk so I decided to embrace a more haphazard layout design with little bits tucked in and layered together here and there. It was definitely a fun way to utilize all those little bits of pretty paper but my linear loving self still twitches a bit wanting to straighten a piece here and there. But I'm proud to say that I managed to leave well enough alone and Anya seems to be right at home amongst the mix.
I was also inspired to make my own little stick pin pennant as I've been seeing a lot from different paper companies recently. I'm happy to report that it was very easy to do and it opened up a whole different way for me to add a sentiment to my card which is great.
Ok, time for me to scoot my boot and get ready for the day.
See ya in 24!

Amy this is simply adorable! I love how you have put this all together. It is hard for me to make as well, but I always love how it looks. lol.. Great tag/sentiment idea as well. I hope that you enjoy your ham & eggs... The ham sound sooooo good. We are going low key with the M&Ms, but I am sure it will be a fun day. Hugs, Lisa
