Little Lamb for Easter

Good morning again!  My second post today, and this one is a card for a GDT spot at Lexi's Creations for this week's challenge theme of Easter.  I was provided with this lovely image (Easter Lamb), and decided it would be perfect for my younger granddaughter, who still sleeps with 'Lambie'....a little stuffed bunny that she has had since a baby.


I've coloured the image with copics, adding some chalk for the background.  The pretty papers are from MME and their Fine and Dandy Girl collection.  The yellow strip across the centre is a piece of that fancy tape that is all the go now.  I had lots of fun with punches and dies, but otherwise just a bow and a few gems for embellishment, as the papers are rather busy.

Tools used:
Martha Stewart punch - Edge Doily Lace
Whimsy die - Dainty Notables 4
Spellbinders die - Labels Twenty Three

I'm now ahead of the game and have one card ready for Easter.  Can you believe it's only four weeks away!  Don't forget to check out all of the DT creations this week at Lexi's, and perhaps get your card into the challenge for your chance at a lovely prize.
