Oh how I wish that were true here...but we've got snow to melt till the cows come home! Though I think it will feel like spring when you see this beautiful set illustrated again by Marcella. I just about squealed when I saw it.... it really combines some beautiful images of spring and Easter but can be used year round for many occasions.
As soon as I saw the nest I knew that I wanted to color it on Kraft paper with Prismacolors. That white/blue combination of pencils just pops on Kraft. I like the cute Easter Border Petites along the bottom too - and it's on sale at Flourishes too :) Just thought you might want to know that :)
Now how about the total adorable factor....
Just look at those bunnies in the flowers and grass! That totally says spring :) Coloring is with Copics on Flourishes Classic White Cardstock.
I've created a little lattice work/basket weave on my Lacey Circle Nestability to lay the bunnies on, and isn't this the perfect paper? It's new in the store from Prima called Jack and Jill Celebrate. Such adorable prints in this pack of paper.
Just look at those cute little bunny tails! My heart just smiles!

I saw a robin in our back yard today and I it won't be long before we find blue egg shells from hatched chicks in our yard. Lovely nest image and fabulously coloured as always. Fun bottom border to the card too.
As for the bunnies....I'm having some issues with the one in my yard that chewed my crocuses down to the dirt!!! Now I get NO crocuses blooming in my front garden so I maybe serving him for dinner this weekend LOL! Your image is darling and I love the pops of colour in the flowers. Great cards as always :)

they're both very pretty. love the woven circle on the rabbit piece. nice detail
Girl, the details on both of these amazing cards are wonderful! Love the colors showing through the border on the first one, as well as the beautiful image colored on kraft! And yes, those bunnies are adorable, but your woven die cut is phenomenal!
Once again two lovely creations. Both are so beautifully colored and real looking. Its 74 degrees here today (after 3 inches of snow Monday) my weather and your cards have me thinking spring. TFS
Oh my you did such a wonderful job with both these lovely and adorable cards. I love the soft colors you created on the kraft card with your pencils.
Then those bunnies...awww just as charming as can be and that lattice circle is fabulous and so creative.
these spring cards are great christine, beautiful stamps and coloring.
greetings karin
Oh I just love this new set and you have created two beautiful cards! Great colors too!
Both cards are absolutely wonderful! Love the woven background on your second card. And, the coloring on both is beautifully done.
These are both so pretty Christine. I love the coloring on the Kraft. It gives it such a rich look. Your bunny card is colored to perfection. Great job.
You've really brought these images to life with your beautiful coloring, Christine!! I love your pretty lattice work as well!!
Beautiful colors with your robin's eggs and nest, Christine! Love it on the kraft. And the bunnies -- super adorable! That ruffled ribbon edge is fabulous! I feel so lucky that we don't have bunny problems here. There are bunnies living in the brush near the beach, but for some reason they don't come into the garden. Therefore, I'm free to be enchanted by this sweet little scene!
Really cute - especially like the ribbon & basket weave adornments.
