Double D Challenge . . . Easter

Happy Day Everyone!

I'm excited to say it's time for another fun challenge

at the DOUBLE D CHALLENGE BLOG!

Today's theme is EASTER

 

March doesn't just have St. Patrick's Day to celebrate this year ... there's also Easter on March 27th.

Here's a peek at the mood board you can use for inspiration.

Oh my goodness ... wait until you see the FABULOUS creations the design team has come up with this time around ... absolutely awesome!  Please be sure to pop over and leave them some love!  

I remember Easter as a child was always FUN and MEMORABLE!

Waking up to find our Easter baskets on the table filled with all types of goodies.  

And, not just candy!  I think my Mom put the baskets together for my sisters and I ... but I think my Dad was the one who always added the little wind up toys, ball & jacks ... or something of that nature to our basket. 

 We three girls ALWAYS had a new dress, hat & gloves for Easter Sunday Church Service!!

And of course photos were taken before heading to church.

(while we were still clean and looking like little ladies! lol)

Don't we look adorable!!  LOL!!

So, today I chose to go with the YUMMY side of Easter!

I noticed on the shelf a stack of 'Christmas' buckets that were given to me awhile back

and thought how cute would that be repurposed as an Easter basket for Little Lily 

(our almost 2 years old neighbor).  And that's where the fun began.

By simply tearing and decoupaging some Easter colored/patterned papers with Mod Podge, it was no time at all that my Easter Bucket was ready to be filled.  

I spotted this vintage Easter printable on Pinterest (reminded me so much of my own childhood Easter cards) that I thought a quick card for Lily and a little tag to match were in order. 

PLEASE come join in our fun at the new Double D Challenge Blog.

OH and did I mention there's a PRIZE to one lucky random winner?
Yep ... how cute is this?
