Happy Easter by Sharon V

Easter is this week and here we go again with another Easter egg hunt for the little ones only they are older and know what they are doing and are already getting their game faces on! The picture of them that I have here is last years and it seems so long ago as they have grown so much in so many ways. I adore them and everything i do is for them. I am so grateful this Easter as I have really been evolving as a desinger. It makes me so happy to see all the beautiful cards made from such talented crafters as well as the beautiful designs made from my resources. Im truly so blessed and grateful. Thank you to everyone XOXOX I feel so happy that I am focussing on my designing on a full time basis. It allows me to be at home with my little ones and still make some money. What a blessing. I absolutely love CUP and everyone here . My fellow designers, cardmakers and CUP staff you are truly amazing xo I Wish You a very Happy Easter XO

Cycling by Diane Hannah

This is a photo of some of the the Special Olympics cycling team. The story was done promoting our county games competition. Pictured are my grandson, Addison, Amanda, and Ellianna, one of the volunteers. Ellie is a college student that dedicates many hours of her time to our team. She times the athletes heats and cheers them on. She speaks three languages, and is also fluent in American sign language. She is a lovely young adult, and we thank her for all she does for our Special Olympic athletes.

Two of my newest kits. Thank you...Hugs

New Kid on the block! by Tina Fitch

Yes heres the new kid on the block due to take over from the GR4 Tornado at RAF Marham, its The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II. I was lucky to see it in action at Red Flag Nellis AFB in Nevada last week.. Its a single engine aircraft and has the ability to take off on a short runway and land vertically.. Photo taken by me personally.Funny I am not to keen on how it looks to be honest! I loved the shape of the F22 Raptor and thought maybe as it was stealth like would look like that but it reminds me of a beetle.. and its stance is NOT very fighter looking.. My opinion of course..Anyway thats my little bit of news this week, Happy Easter to all my customers old and new ! Oh and dont forget my sale is still on till Saturday night midnight..

EASTER TRADITIONS IN FRANCE by Wanda Lipski

Ah, I have fond memories of discovering on Easter morning a selection of easter eggs from the family, each in a colourful box, wrapped in coloured foil, just asking to be opening to discover the Smarties inside, or as we got older Milk Tray chocolates ... French chocolate tradition goes for moulding chocolate into 2 halves of a fish, rabbit, hen or occasionally an egg and filling it with (friture) little chocolate pieces shaped as fish and seashells. Put the two halves together, tie a ribbon around it and VOILA, French easter chocolate. Anyone want to send a Cadburys Cream Egg my way ??? Happy Easter to one and all !

Footstool by Sue Way

We have some new retro-style chairs in our conservatory. They are very comfortable and we like to sit there at the weekend watching the birds in the garden. But hubby said we needed a footstool. He had a tiny wooden footstool in his shed that he had picked up at a boot sale and had cleaned up and polished, but the cushion was a bit old-fashioned. So he found a piece of pop art fabric and recovered it. I think the finished result is lovely and bright and goes perfectly with the chairs. I have just added some Easter money wallets and pinch bags for those last minute Easter gifts. My SALE is on until the end of the month so empty those wish lists and grab a bargain! http://www.craftsuprint.com/sue-way/?r=968387

Little Tractor Driver by Carol Clarke

This weeks Cuddle & Giggle Day was dry and bright .... unlike the last few weeks! Soo we took advantage of this to get out and about again. For a change we took Austin to Hardwick Hall. Brrr .... it was soooo cold with an icy wind but we still had a great time. Austin especially liked the toy tractors in the courtyard ... Grandad and I didnt like them quite so much as Austin hasnt yet mastered the arts of peddling nor steering ... so we either had aching backs from pushing him .... or were in danger of being run over! lol Below are some of my NEWEST designs ... Watch out for more coming Soon!

Sunny Llandudno by Carol Dunne

What a beautiful day last Sunday was, first proper sunshine of the year here in the North West of the UK. So we (my husband and myself) went for one of our favourite drives up to Llandudno in North Wales. As you can see from the photo the sun was shining and the air was clear, although I must say the wind was rather chilly. Lets hope it is the start of good weather to come. Its a long time since we have had a really good summer.

Spring Gardening by Janice Shehan

I always look forward to spring and planting new flowers. This year I added a beautiful new deck and am having fun decorating. Im trying some new plants and have also planted a raised herb garden. I love to cook with fresh everything!Thats one of the reasons I love digital design so much, I can embellish with as many flowers as I want! Happy Easter to everyone, everywhere.

Egg-stra Special Alfie by Janice McFarlane

Easter is upon us, and I am sure schools around the country have had varying Easter celebrations and Easter parades. My grandsons school at RAF Benson is no exception. He has been working hard with his mummy to decorate his very elaborate Easter Bonnet, in fact I think it could be worn at Ascot this year. He has also been very busy working with his daddy to decorate his egg. As his hobby is playing Ice Hockey and his favourite movie the Mighty Ducks, they pair of them have created an ice rink out of a cereal box, with chicks and bunnies as spectators, and a great egg-head ice hockey player. It looks like Alfie has worked really hard on his creations, with a little help from Mummy and Daddy of course.

Birthday Girl Bella by Vicki Avcin

Well 26th March saw our little Grand daughter Bella turn two. Cant believe how time flies so quickly. She has just started kindy this year butfor now only goes one day a week to give Mum a break. With baby Clay who is just on 3 months old, it gives Mum a chance to have a bit of a breather to get more thingsdone than when this little livewire Bella is at home. Bellas Mum made her birthday cake again this year with it being all about the sea. She made all the little animal decorations on it too! (everything is edible). So where else would they hold Bellas party but down at the beach. Dont you love her curls? Reminds me of a little Shirley Temple.
