The DT were very kindly given some images to play along and I chose the adorable 'Party Chooks' and I made an Easter gift card in the shape of a bag, which cut on the Cricut.  The chooks are coloured with SN pencils on watercolour paper.  The tag is a sizzix die cut and the sentiment and stamped image inside are from PTI.

Summer Breeze Elena

Hello, just thought I'd pop on and post this easel Mother's Day card now as it has been received.  The image I have used is 'Summer Breeze Elena' by Simply B Stamps and she was the February freebie when you purchased $8 worth of images so unfortunately she is no longer available but I certainly was not going to miss out on her! I have coloured her using copics, papers from my stash, Prima Got Flowers, pearls and the sentiment is actually from another Simply B Stamps image called 'Bianca Hipster'  I kept the colours all neutral and I'm glad I did as I love how this turned out and so does my mum!
