When it comes to Easter 'critters,' most of us think of bunnies and chicks, but not sheep. I just laughed out loud when I saw this image from Bugaboo Stamps. It felt like a take-off on the Cadbury Chocolate commercials about everyone wanting to be the Easter Bunny. :-D
I started by coloring the image with ProMarkers and pencils, then I cut it with a die from QuicKutz. The frame behind it was cut from blue CS with a Sue Wilson die. Because the die cut was narrower than what I wanted, I cut it in the middle (lengthwise) and attached one half to each side of my image rectangle.
I wrapped stitched, satin ribbon around the card front, added the framed image, and then used one of my signature, hand-sewn bows with a pearl. Quick and easy design but the fancy frame makes it look much more complex.

Well, my weekend is winding down and I still have weeds to pull and plants to put in the family vegetable garden. My granddaughter is going to help out and I'll be most grateful for that. These old bones don't bend over as easily as they used to do. Well, bending isn't really the problem - it's getting back to an upright stance that doesn't happen the way it did a few years ago. :-D
