I wish all my followers and friends a very happy Easter on this Easter Sunday, its time for the CD Sunday Challenge blog to have a new challenge, The host this fortnight is me, I am very pleased I scheduled this post as I am ill in bed with flu,, I will catch up when I am better in the meantime, stay safe and well.
For my card this fortnight I have chose an image from the Flower Patch CD by Debbi Moore, this is a new CD for me, which I brought recently, its a very pretty CD with lots of lovely images, I used the florist shop imasge (that was my shop many years ago) with the matching backing paper, I matted the image onto gold brush miri card by Hunkydory and the die corners, well I cut this die for the christening card you saw a couple of weeks ago only this die cut did not completely cut one corner, so I kept it and then used it on this card making it into a corner piece, the die is called Rose butterfly die set by Apple Blossom, and the ribbon is from stash.

Last Sunday we had a christening in the family, I made this card for Mabel she is just six months old. I had never been to a christening before apart from my own, something different for a change.
I used a cream square card and the rose butterfly die set by Apple Blossom, I cut the die out of pink card, and two crosses one large fancy one and one small plain cross which I brought from Amazon some time ago they were part of a set of five die crosses. I decoupaged them on top of each other. I added the words in silver peel offs.
I kept the card simple, less is more they say.

This is a busy weekend for me as I have two friends birthdays today and a christening, The christening is our beautiful great niece who was six months old last Wednesday, as I have never been to a christening it will be something new to me, I don’t remember mine but I was only three months old.
It’s time for another challenge at the CD Sunday challenge blog and this fortnight Jo is hosting,
For my card this fortnight I am using one of the birthday card I made our friend Ruth, this is a download from Debbi Moore’s website, I used the image and the background sheet that went with it, and decoupaged the chickens, Ruth likes chickens so I think she will enjoy this card. I finished it off with some yellow flowers and butterfly from stash.
My other friend Melody, whose birthday it is today received an Art Deco card I made for a CD Sunday challenge a few weeks ago. She fell in love with it when it was posted, I hope they both enjoy their days.

Hi,
Yes it might be April fools day, but today is International tatting day, and this year I have made this heart and paws in the colours of Ukraine. The blue should be darker but I don’t have any blue dark enough so I used this one I found.
The heart pattern is from Facebook called Pray for Ukraine by Edda Guastalla
The paws pattern is also from Facebook and I did them for all the animals that are frighten and suffering in Ukraine at the moment. This pattern is by @1001 no’s Frivolite
I used the yellow thread which is new to me and I have never heard of Lesur Pixie no 20, and the blue thread which I found in the bottom of my thread draw is an old ball of coats also no 20 which was brought in the 1979s.
I hope every tatter around the world has a lovely day tatting and eating chocolate

As I write this the sun has got its hat on, it’s a beautiful day here in Somerset, it would be warmer if the wind drop, a breeze they said … no it’s more like a Gale, at least its looking like spring with the daffs out, if the news was better, instead of the war we had peace in the world, My thought and prayers go out to the people of Ukraine.
It’s time for another challenge at CD Sunday and this fortnight its Pamela turn to host
For my card this fortnight I used Farmyard days CD by Pollyanna Pickering for the image and background papers, The image I did as a twisted pyramid design. which i matted onto blue card, finished off with peel offs and added some parchment feathers and made a matching blue bow.
