It’s a bright, sunny Easter and lots of fun to be in Wisconsin to celebrate. With the exception of last year, when we celebrated Easter alone, we are lucky to have had one set of grandchildren to celebrate with every year. This year, it’s Caleb and Hannah, although we miss seeing the three girls. Before we left Rochester, we celebrated with the three girls. They made some Easter headbands and some place cards for their dinner table (no photos!)
Yesterday, we did the same with Caleb and Hannah. We made an extra for their friend, Evie, who will be coming for dinner tonight with her mom and dad.
Hannah and I made Easter cookies Friday morning, and when Caleb got home we got busy decorating them.
All five of the grandchildren’s Easter cards are very similar. The Card Concept’s new challenge is “Celebrate Easter”-–perfect for these cards! Card Concepts asks you to classify your card design. I’d classify these as Clean and Layered.
A friend loaned me a wonderful bunny die by Lil’ Inker called “Peek-a-Boo Bunny”, and I used it for all five grandchildren.
These are the card for the three girls in Rochester. The only difference is the patterned paper—all from my stash. The funky flowers are stickers that were also in my stash.
The sentiment is from an older Papertrey Ink set, “Bunny Basket.”
Similar, but not quite the same, here are the two for Caleb and Hannah.
When I made these cards, I wasn’t sure we’d be able to travel over Easter, so I opted for a bow rather than a flower in case the card needed to go in the mail. I love the plaid paper on Caleb’s card and the bright green card seems more appropriate for a boy.
If you celebrate Easter, I hope you’re having a lovely day! If not, I hope the sun is shining where you are, and you have some time to get out and enjoy it!
Lovely photos of the Grandkids & how wonderful that you get to spend time with all of them, if not the same time. Very nice cards, such a friendly bunny messanger.
What a darling card and perfect for children! By just changing up a image here and there and the colors it easily went from girl to boy. Thanks so much for joining us at The Card Concept!
Everything about this post made me smile. Enjoy!💕🌼🌷🌹
Happy Easter Karen. How wonderful to spend such special hours with special people.
I’m so glad you were able to travel for Easter – what a joy! your grandchildren are adorable in their bunny ears … and seeing them in person must’ve been the best gift of all. Happy Easter!
Your grands are precious! What a treat to be able to celebrate Easter with both families. I love all the activities you share together too.
So delighted to hear you’ve been able to spend Easter with your family and see your grandchildren! Those bunny headbands and cards are just splendid – so creative. And bunny biscuits too … I bet they love doing things with you! Wishing you the joy of Eastertide and every blessing, Karen.
I’m on leave this week and have had a chance to catch up on some blog reading – it’s been so long! How wonderful to see all your grandchildren – they have grown so much! I love the little Easter headbands and the cards and I bet the children did too! Glad you had a lovely Easter with family. x
I am not sure which are cuter…your grandkids (and your hubby helping) or the cards! Well, shoot, the grandkids ARE the cutest, but those bunny cards are a close second! They are just the sweetest, and your colors are bright and springy! Thanks for sharing this with us at The Card Concept!
The cards are cute, but the kiddos are cuter!!
