Yes, I know it is a few days too early. But I finally got into the Easter spirit yesterday, when Nicco and I started making Easter cards.

Easter card (folded to the left, open to the right)

I decided to go back to a style which I had used a lot for my Christmas cards and decorations, but had somewhat neglected in later months. It is a combination of folding and panel layering that is very loosely inspired by the work of quilt and stamping artist Patti Pasteur, and stamping artist Loretta Lock, but threw in some other elements that I have grown fond of since the beginning of the year (I handpainted the base panel and designed all the patterned papers).

I like the chunky, satisfying feeling the card has—and I like even more that I got to use one of my recent Ebay purchases in it, a really sweet Bible card.
