Welcome Easter and CAS Color Challenge #365

Hope everyone has a happy Easter celebration despite the social distancing. Created this card to share with 30 elderly shut-ins. We normally get together once a month to assemble but were not able to this month. The gals were so sweet, they wanted the cards to get done despite the situation at hand. Innovative as they are we pulled it off and the two mailings still went out this month. I’m so blessed to be a part of this wonderful group of dedicated women who love others unconditionally. Hope you’ll consider playing along with the Clean and Simple Challenge #365 this week. Hurry along as the deadline is closely approaching.

GDP#235 Easter and Iris Fold Baby Card

My niece is expecting her second son any day now. I’ve had iris folding on my mind today so I thought I’d play around with the technique and create a sweet baby card to send out this week. Isn’t the bunny just the cutest? He’d make a great Easter card also. I think I’ll submit it to the Global Design Project Blog for this weeks GDP#235 challenge. If you haven’t done an Iris Fold card before here are the instructions for this card and the pattern. Hope you will give the technique and the GDP#235 a try.
