Spring Inspiration

The weather is starting to warm up, and Spring will be here shortly.  I wanted to post pictures of a few Spring/Easter themed projects.  The store has some lovely paper by Authentique and Graphic 45 for your Easter pictures.  Plus, check out the calendar for March's classes.
Easter Wall Hanging.
Plus, there are a few layout kits left from Echo Park's Happy Easter collection.  
Easter Layout Kit available in limited quantities.
Authentique's Promise Collection available at the store.
Artistic Tip: Use Washi Tape to add colors and patterns to pages.  Apply washi tape to card stock and run thru a manual die cutting machine for shapes.  Washi Tape is perfect for decorating paper Easter Eggs too.
