Easter (and a freebie)

The evenings are starting to get lighter so it must mean that the clocks will 'spring forward' soon. I really hate the cold dark evenings, so am so looking forward to the longer evenings.

Although Easter isn't for another month, there's no reason to hold off making a couple of Easter cards.  Plus there's a cute new Barry bear release and freebie today at StampFairy called Barry Easter 1 (I think that is a hint that there may be a Barry Easter 2 soon!).  Anyway, when I saw the cute Barry bear, I couldn't resist making a card with him. I've also used today's Stampfairy freebie to decorate inside.

Plus, as if one freebie isn't enough, I've also got a freebie of my own to share with you, being an Easter circle sentiment that I've used on today's card (collect it below)





This card is available to buy on my eBay listings
