Easter is Egg-Citing!

If you ask me what my favorite holiday is --hands down, it's Christmas.  I think Easter is a close second.  But thinking about it, I just really love holidays..any holiday..it really almost doesn't matter when all is said and done.  I'm one of those girls that has to have the holiday socks, the holiday movies, the holiday napkins..well you get the idea, lol.  Most of all, I love the constant traditions that I've celebrated as a child and the new ones that I've created with my family over the years.  Speaking about new, this year, Easter will be spent in our new home....so this Easter is definately going to be egg-citing...hehe (I just had to do that, lol).

And on that note, here is my card based on the sketch provided in the current challenge over at Meljen's Designs.

    What a lovely sweet bunny image, i was looking at the meljens designs last night, I'm very tempted...

    Thanks for stopping by my blog and for your sweet comment, I have actually made 3 cards today for the Waltzingmouse Stamps challenge and the Play Date cafe, but my Photo Aperture isn't downloading from the memory card for some reason, I'm waiting for Mr Techie to get home and sort it out quickly lol! xxx

    LOL that is Egg-citing. Love this card. It is so Spring like with the wonderful colors and patterns. You are becoming quite the coloring pro too. Didn't you start with your kids Crayola markers? You amaze me with how you learned on those.

    This card is egg-stra special (I couldn't resist either lol)! Fabulous coloring of that adorable image...and the dp is such a pretty backdrop for that little bunny. The colors are so "spring-y" and the daisy's are a perfect accent for your card. A wonderful card to celebrate such a special holiday.
