What's in your Easter basket - pretty colored hard boiled eggs that you whip into egg salad or a ton of Chocolate that you eat for breakfast Easter Sunday morning.
Well I should have known. I see the evidence around your mouth and on your fingers too. You have been eating chocolate haven't you?
The dark you see around this card is really blue - a pretty deep blue for the base and the the frame around the chocolate bunnies is navy. I have the hardest time trying to get my colors right. Sure wish Suzanne would do a tutorial about getting colors right.
I hope that you will visit my very talented team mates. I know you know Danielle. She created those wonderful cards about THE SOUND OF MUSIC. Christina just posted the most beautiful Christmas cards on her blog. Charlene is a wizard with those cantankerous Copic markers. Why you should see her color away! Rene is so cute -- everyone knows Grace and Izzy. I wonder if Rene watched the movie FRIED GREEN TOMATOES. Last but certainly not least is Jean. Jean is a really good artist. I guess y'all saw the couch she drew for one of her cards. Amazing!
I sure do appreciate your comments. So many harken back to yesteryear and make me smile and sometimes just right ole' laugh out loud!!
XO Sandy

Sandy dear Sandy. I LOVE THIS CARD!!! Oh my goodness you've created a real gem here. What a layout and use of multilpe stamps!
Your story to go along with was real enjoyable too!!! Thanks for making this weeks wait well worth it!!!

Good morning Sandy, I love your card, this basket is wonderful, so nicely decorated. It would certainly be black chocolate for me! and no, I never started my rabbits by the ear, I would keep them for the end. I started by the bottom, where it doesn't show, and go up! Mama, I love your story about the church community, and the meaning of Easter. I would take a book with all your short stories... Haven't you thought about it?
Have a wonderful day, friend. Hugs.
Hi Sandy, your card is delicious! Every bite of it! What a super idea you came up with for Easter. BTW I always started my rabbits at the ears, especially if they were the solid chocolate one. Great coloring on the bunnies...hugs...Barb

Sweet Sandy,
It's a dark, gloomy, rainy day here in southern Utah - then, all of the sudden, a huge ray of sunlight jumped out of my computer screen! It was YOUR card! It is just precious! I just love the little story, and the images you used are wonderful! Your humor is just such a pick me up! I love your card. I love how it looks - so professional.

Love it!! I can just taste your chocolate bunny. Good job! Love you.
What a yummy card, Sandra! ( I just love your name, Sandra,gorgeous and suits you so well)
Your Easter basket looks amazing. I have this stamp too but never inked it up...lol! Thus colored it looks magnificent! Those corners make it so elegant and the inside is simply delicious. You know what? Not only your Mama has a sweet tooth. And I guess I'm gonna call my hubby get me one or two of those bunnies too. Yummy! I just love that chocolate color.
Great idea with those eaten ears. You are so inventive Sandy!
You said you were not satisfied with your colors. I noticed that if I take the pictures in the sun the colors are more like in real life. Still, I think your colors are just beautiful in the pictures. Your coloring is lovely and it's always a pleasure to stop by!
Have a great Sunday my dear!
Gosh, I need badly those chocolate bunnies! Gonna go get them!
Luv, Iulia
These are adorable!
