Simon Says ... Easter and Shimmer

Urgh, I am so over making Easter cards!  I think its because I never really think to buy Easter images, so when it comes to the crunch I don't really have much to choose from! 
Apologies in advance for the rubbish photo - if I remember I'll take a better pic tomorrow.  (at least next week the nights will be brighter after the clocks change)
As you can see there's a shimmer on my DP which totally blinded my rubbish camera!  Paper pieced the little flower pot with the shimmery paper too. 

Sketch from Creative Inspirations # 53 .... sort of!  I kinda forgot to leave room for my sentiment in the bottom corner!

Incy Wincy Designs #35 is Easter

Stamp with Fun #51 is also Easter

Corrosive Challenge #56: paper piecing

Sweet Stampin #18: Spring is in the Air

Allsorts #44: Spring is in the Air

Crazy 4 Challenges C4C29: Spring

The Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge #75: Spring has sprung (I was lucky enough to win one of their new stamps last week so can't wait till it comes!)

Supplies: Messy Rabbit stamp from Joanna Sheen; wee chick and little easter eggs from Bunny Hugs (Stampin Up); DP has been in my stash for years, no idea what it is; dew drops; copic markers; gold peel off greeting: Stampin Up corner punch

Hi Lynne, I spotted one of your comments on a blog, what took my eye was the photo of your Westie, I'm from Australia and also have a Westie named Ruby, what a small world, our Ruby is 6 months old and we love her to bits, she is such a character.

Your card is adorable, love the colours and your colouring is wonderful. Hugs Jodie from Oz
