Easter Time

 

Are you ready for Easter? Do you have little ones who are coloring eggs, and wanting an Easter basket? I hope each of you will stop and take some time to reflect upon the true meaning of Easter and the sacrifice Jesus made for us.

It is also time for another fun challenge at The Paper Shelter.

Our challenge this week is "Easter Time". We need to see your Easter cards for this challenge.

I chose Candy Bunny 

for my card! I think she is so cute and she is obviously getting her candy fix for the day!

I kept this card simple and just added a few tiny paper flowers and a lace butterfly.  I can't wait to see what you come up with for this challenge! 

I am entering this card at the following challenges:

My Song: Low In the Grave He Lay

Low in the grave he lay, Jesus my Savior,

waiting the coming day, Jesus my Lord!

Up from the grave he arose;

with a mighty triumph o'er his foes;

he arose a victor from the dark domain,

and he lives forever, with his saints to reign.

He arose! He arose! Hallelujah! Christ arose!

Inspiration For You!***

 

My Song: Waltz With The Angels (Rory Lee)

Played a party last night for some old folks
They were dancing and smiling at me
'Cept this old man, alone at a table
As if there's someplace that he'd rather be

So I said, "Sir, can I play something for you
Something special that you'd like to hear"
When he looked up at me, he was smiling
Oh, but his eyes couldn't hide the tears

He said, "Play me the Waltz of the Angels
And I'll close my eyes and pretend
Play me the Waltz of the Angels
So I can dance with my angel again"

He said, "Yes, that's the song I remember
That's the one that she loved the best
It was playing the night that I met her
And it was playing when we laid her to rest"

Play me the Waltz of the Angels
And I'll close my eyes and pretend
Play me the Waltz of the Angels
So I can dance with my angel again
Let me dance with my angel again

Out With The Faries!

 

Oh, dear! This fairy is having a bad hair day! I hope your day is going much better! If not stop what you are doing and make a card for the latest challenge at The Paper Shelter!  

Our challenge is "Out With the Faries". We want to see fairies on you cards or projects.

I chose "My Hair" stamp for this card. As you can see this fairy got a wet surprise. LOL!

I am entering this card at the following challenges:

My Song: I'm Gonna Wash That Man Right Out of My Hair (Stacey Kent)

I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair,
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair,
I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair,
And send him on his way.

I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms.
I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms,
I'm gonna wave that man right outa my arms,
And send him on his way.

Don't try to patch it up.
Tear it up, tear it up!
Wash him out, dry him out.
Push him out, fly him out.
Cancel him and let him go!
Yeah, sister!

You Brighten My Day!***

Don't Cry Over Spilled Milk!***

Animal Magic

 

I hope this card just 'quacks you up'! LOL! It is time for another fun challenge at The Paper Shelter and this week we want to see "Animal Magic". I chose "The Most Adorable Ducky" for my card.

He is such a fun little guy that you can't but help smile when you see him. I used a die cut for my lily pads and flowers. I added a shiny button for the center of the flower. The inside also  had a die cut that I cut in several layers and added some Copic coloring to. It fit perfect for this card.

So grab a stamp at The Paper Shelter and join in on the fun. 

I am entering this card at the following challenges:

My Song: A Little White Duck (Burl Ives)

here's a little white duck, sitting in the water

A little white duck, doing what he oughter

He took a bite of a lily pad

Flapped his wings and he said, "I'm glad

I'm a little white duck sitting in the water

Quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack, quack"
