I'm not - but I'm gettin' there.
Miss Jaycie said something the other day which reminded me that I still have things to do - like, uh, decide what goodies I'm going to make for the kiddies to take to their church classes for Easter - yeah, not make them, I still need to decide what and then make them! And, I think I'm short on Easter cards so I've got to make a few more of those.
I made these for D's church class teachers. They love my cards, and they love that I always send goodies for every holiday - - it's nice to be appreciated. I don't do things because I necessarily want people to say anything to me, but, it's really nice when they do.
One of D's teachers sent me a nice card as thanks for the Valentine cards I made them and sent with their gifts (clearance Christmas chocolate - it was red and no sign of Christmas - shhhh), and then a couple of weeks ago one of the teachers' father died so D sent her THIS CARD (I told you there would be the perfect occasion for it) and she sent a note to thank for that as well. It's so funny the things that kids say...D wrote the card all by himself - he's in 1st grade now so I don't tell him what to say or how to spell it - he wrote "I'm sorry your dad died, Miss Leticia." It's so matter of fact, but sweet coming from a kid, no? Anyhooooo - these are the Easter cards I made for the (4) of them.

Simple and clean....was thinking for once I'd get cards flat enough to fit into an envelope but now as I write this I see that I have the flowers hanging off the side - LOL My cards rarely fit in to a regular envelope - *ack* So, I guess they'll be tucked into some kind of little Easter goodness for them.

These are really pretty! ;love the flowers and the embossiing!
Adorable cards with a touch of churchiness. Way to go!
I love when kids write (say) things for themselves. Too bad we usually lose that honesty and openness when we get older. Kids are such straight shooters.
so cute, simple and cute!
Nope, I'm not ready for Easter either. I don't even have any ideas yet so you're waaaay ahead of me! I really like the cards you created - love the swiss dots folder and the colors and design go well together.
