Celebrating Easter


Hi all…I know, it’s been a long time, but I am back again…at least for a little bit. We have had an illness in my family and so I have not been around my home or crafting supplies for the last little while. But enough about me and my life, I know that you are all here to hear about the challenge going on at Digistamps4Joy. If you haven’t been to our challenge blog recently, then I encourage you to head on over and see the fabulous creations that Team A made for the beginning of our challenge. Now it’s Team B’s turn to Wow you. I know, you’re thinking “Come on, what’s the theme for this time?”…well I’m getting there…it has been awhile and I want to enjoy my first posting lol. The theme this time is “Celebrating Easter”. We want to see how you celebrate Easter. For me it’s a little bit of religion and Easter Bunny. When my kids were little we had the Easter Bunny show up, but being raised in a Christian household myself, my kids always knew that Easter was celebrated because of the death and resurrection of Jesus….the Easter Bunny was just for fun.


When I saw the theme for this challenge I was pretty excited because it gave me an excuse to use an image that I got awhile back and have not been able to use yet. The image is called Faberge Egg and you can find it here. I wanted to do something a little different this time…no fancy folds lol. Instead I decided to use the shape of the image to make my card.



Now it’s your turn, just make a project that has to do with Easter and enter it in. Just remember, if you use a Digistamps4Joy Image not only will it make us really really happy, but you will get an entry into a special draw for $10 worth of DS4J images! How great is that? For a full list of prizes and challenge rules head on over to the Challenge Blog. And while you’re there check out all of the incredible creations that my teammates have made.
