Little Boy and Little Girl of Easter

For Gecko Galz today, I have been working on some Easter cards with images of children. Easter is one of our favorite family holidays.  There is lots of food, church and of course chocolate bunnies and jelly beans.  We have many fond memories of fuzzy stuffed bunny toys and hiding Easter eggs for the children to find.

To make the card  with the " Little Boy "I started with the little boy  image from the Easter Children Sheet and layered it on a cross stitched patterned paper, then green, pink and finally I put that on a spring green plaid card. The embellishments include tiny green buttons, little flowers, glitter studs and green rhinestones. A  faux stitch rub on and Stickles were the final accents.

 To make the card with the "Little Girl" I started with the little girl  image from the Easter Children Sheet and layered it on orange plaid paper then a blue glitter egg cut out and orange paper lace. This was glued to multi colored  patterned paper and put on a green card. The embellishments  include an orange little flower, glitter studs and orange  rhinestones. The Happy Easter sentiment and Stickles were the final accents.


Hope you will have some child like fun this week.
Take care my friends, 
Gerri
