An Easter card - quick and easy

Oh, I'm so in love with Penny Black Stickeroos - thanks to Irene I could be going to bankrupt myself :( No sooner had a shed load of few sheets arrived here than Handy Hippo had 20% off on Thursday so I only ordered some Christmas ones! I made a couple the same of this Easter card:
Very quick and easy in between packing school newsletters - those are all posted now though, phew!

I used:

- C6 white linen card stock

- white linen card embossed with a sort of vine swirls pattern - well covered by the image etc. and it doesn't even show on the photo though so bit of a waste of time there :(

- Penny Black Stickeroo from 'Wherever they grow' sheet, really lovely images for Easter on this set

- little pieces of aqua card from the snippets folder

- ribbon from the ribbon box (bought recently with these cards in mind from Hobbycraft)

- 'Happy Easter' stamp by Funstamps, inked up using SU's Baja Breeze Ink Spot (remember that Sarn is a Stampin' Up demonstrator folks!)

And, that's about it. Hope you have a great weekend!

Snippets roll call day tomorrow in the playground :)

    Really lovely card Di, the stickeroo looks brilliant, one would never know that it wasn't your expert use of pastel chalks that had coloured this image.
    They are also accepted on the PB saturday challenge??? and PB at Allsorts challenge. Great Easter card.
