Window on Easter

This is one of the cards we made at the Springtime/Easter cards class on Wednesday. It's a relatively easy card to make. The only possible trouble one would have would be if using the paper cutter to cut the frame was too challenging.  Oh, and then there's the bow, for my bow-challenged friends.

But I think next time I will emboss the frame. It looks a little too plain to me now. And maybe trim the ends of the vellum to make a banner. And add some Dazzling Details to the flowers.  Haha! I definitely subscribe to the more is more theory!

Apologies for the recent series of less than sharp photos. My regular camera has been in the shop for a few weeks and, due to the floods in Thailand, parts for my Nikon are somewhat delayed. That's okay, I can wait. I do have a camera that works okay, and my broken camera pales in comparison to what those poor people have had to endure. Perspective, friends. It's all about perspective.

Have a blessed weekend!
