Easter Plans???

Hello stamping friends,

I'm sure many of you have big plans for Easter this year.  I'm looking forward to another amazing service at church followed by a visit to the lake. I'm spending Easter without family this year and this is the first time that it'll be just me...and my pups. 

I'm enjoying my spring break at home by spending time in my craft room stamping and doing some Spring cleaning.  If you know me well, you know that there is a TON to clean out and pitch...I'm hoping to get almost all of the clothes in my closets pitched or donated.  I haven't done that in years!!!

I also decided to dedicate my planner spread (Webster's Pages/FSJ Black and White Journey Girl Binder) this week to childhood memories and Him...after all, this week is a reflection of all He gave and the blessing of His resurrection.  

So I've been spending some time in prayerful thought this week too.  It's been a week of difficult and sad news for my family and with prayer, it helps the heart and encourages the spirit.  I was able to select some of my most favorite verses...meaningful verses this week.  My spread will probably remain pretty blank as I don't plan on doing much until Sunday...Unless I head down to my sister's on Friday.  We'll see what the week brings for her.

So this was a FUN spread to make (as if none of my other spreads are fun, right?).  I imagined some kiddos celebrating and having a big Easter Egg hunt...so I pulled out my Party Time set.  I stamped the background with the pinked-edge circle to create a faint wallpaper effect then doodled up some bunny ears, some eggs and some grass.  I like how I can add a little character to these kiddos by changing their hats!  :)

I also colored the kiddos with Banana Cream, Bubble Gum reinker and Fusion Blender with a tiny bristle brush, then went over that with a light Copic marker.  I also colored the TIME! banners with a few Copic Markers.  To finish the pages off, I applied some of my trusty FSJ Be Cool washi tape to the edges, re-punched the holes and POOF!  It was done.  :)

I hope you have a wonderful Easter and are blessed beyond measure.  :)
