{real cards} a little peep...

A certain Easter treat always reminds me of my friend, Cecilia. She loved to eat those yellow marshmallow treats months after they arrived in her Easter basket! {Yes, months!} So when the first signs of spring arrived on the shelves of our local drugstore {aka Easter candy}, I thought it would be a fun surprise for her.

I wanted to make a card that was whimsical and springy and I remembered a birthday invitation I designed 4 years ago for a client. I dug through the virtual archives for the artwork and here's what I created...

After finishing, it seemed like such a shame not to send out a few more! I had a lot of fun with the envelopes, too! There's even a little butterfly flying out of the envelope flap. My heart's all a flutter!

Wishing you happy memories and many blessings!

Happy Easter!
