Rejoice

Hi Everyone,
Thanks for stopping in today and welcome to March. I am really looking forward to spring, warmer weather and green grass and pretty flowers but we are once again getting more snow Sunday into Monday.

Easter this year is celebrated on Sunday April 21. So you will be seeing quite a few Easter cards on various blogs for a while. I decided to get an early start.

The Craft-Dee BowZ monthly challenge starts today. Hope you visit and you may see some inspiration and ideas for your card making. The Craft-Dee BowZ designers were given an Easter theme for all of our projects for March. Let me share the card I made for the Challenge post.

I used my Craft-Dee BowZ tool to make a 4 loop bow. The ribbon I used is not a wired ribbon this time but the bow is very full, and it was easy to make using the Craft-Dee BowZ tool.

Here is a closer view of that bow.

Stop over at the Craft-Dee BowZ blog and if you like entering challenges, the theme every month is Anything Goes with a Handmade Bow.We'd love it if you'd enter one of your beautiful cards or a scrapbook layout or whatever you'd like to submit. It just needs a handmade bow.

SUPPLIES USED ON MY PROJECT
Stamps:  JustRite - Easter Blessings
Paper/Card Stock
: Blue CS, Cream CS
Ink: VersaMark
Dies Used: Ellentina Cutting Dies – Fairytale Rectangle Frame; JustRite Oval Medallion Labels; Spellbinders Ovals sm
Accessories

I am submitting my card in the following challenges:

Thanks for stopping in today. Have a wonderful day.

This card is so striking in its elegance as to take my breath away. That blue is PERFECT for the backdrop, and your image is gorgeous. But that BOW is a heart stopper for sure!! WOW! I'm a sucker for a well-tied bow, and this one takes the cake!
