Last week I finished the mammoth task of cutting 1080 eggs for the church Children's Easter Day next Sunday. A super Easter Wreath.I have got a sore neck from all the die cutting, but it's not too bad.
From the minimal waste papers I have managed to cut some small eggs and will be making Easter Cards with those.
I also received a new Quickutz alphabet courtesy of Julia's sale of Mary's craft supplies. It is the Zelda one which I have always liked. It's a bit funky which certainly rings the changes. All I have managed to cut so far are my initials. I popped them on an ATC with my new Heart diecuts - nice Thanks JULIA super wrapping too.
And who spotted the WOYWW addition on my keyboard too?
Finally I made my March SWAP I used all items already cut as I just need a break from die-cutting just now.

love that atc! that is a mammoth die cutting session you had, you're lucky you didn't put your back out again! Helen #1
I first read that you had finished the mammoth task of "Eating" 1080 eggs. Eyes popped and I realised my mistake. Doh!
Love the wreath, and love the alphabet - now why did I not see it?

Hi BJ, that is one great alphabet! Glad you are finished with the die cutting. The ATC is fabulous; such a good idea to use up your left over bits and pieces. Sarah #12
Like the card for the swap, lots of purple Passion. I believe the best way to ease the ache is to stretch it gently the same way..or diecut another 1000 eggs using the other hand!! Glad you’re enjoying ownership of the alpha!
I like that alphabet too - how lovely that you bought some of Mary's stash. I met her many times at Julai's card workshop days and she was a really lovely woman. Your BJ initials are fab. And well done for rescuing some of those scraps to make mini eggs!

Morning BJ. 1080 eggs??!!! Boy, that was a mammoth session! But well done - I'm sure the youngsters will enjoy using them for the wreaths. That's a real fun alphabet - well spotted.
Take care. God bless.

busy desk again this week. Love the wreath and the ATC. I spent some time with the little Sidekick die cutting stuff. That little thing is really easy and fun! Just bought another Vagabond from a crafting friend that wanted to get rid of it for $15...a steal and I tried to pay her more but she wouldn't take it! Have a great week. Vickie #6
Well done on getting all the die cutting done and having enough bits to make such a lovely ATC. Gorgeous alphabet too, you can never have enough of those.
Happy WOYWW
