Hello folks! It feels like ages since I’ve posted anything. But not to worry – I have two cards I made for the Out of a Hat Challenge this week. They are asking for Easter bonnets and after searching the internet for ideas, I decided to opt for a couple of vintage Easter pictures with bonnets in them.
These little Easter chicks are so adorable and a sure sign of spring. I wish we were seeing spring here. We’ve had nothing but snow, snow, snow!
My second card showcases a different sort of Easter chick! She’s just hatched too but hasn’t quite come out of her shell yet ;0) The strip of patterned paper down the right side was punched with a Martha Stewart border punch and then inked with Desert Sand ink. The focal image was framed using kraft card stock, cut on the Cricut, and then mounted onto a piece of aqua blue card stock. Lastly, the paper flowers were glued down the left side and adorned with pearls.
That’s it from me today. I will just make it under the wire for the challenge so I must be off to add my post! Have a lovely week and happy crafting!

LOVE your Easter chick! The whole thing is FABulously SHABby chic, but I esp like how you captured the essence of the pussy-willow, with those glitter paper/pearl elements in the corners.
A couple of great cards, I love the colours and the vintage pictures! Thanks for playing along with us at Out of a hat creations. Tracey x
