Good Tuesday morning! Yesterday I had an email from my buddies over at TwistedPapers.com, Stan and Russell, that they had uploaded some new images. I’ve been waiting for the colored Alice in Wonderland images because I’ve had an idea running through my mind for a few weeks now, which they did get uploaded. However, they also uploaded a bunch of new Easter images! I couldn’t resist downloading one with little yellow 
to work with.
I think that when I was a little girl I received a live chick for Easter one year. I really don’t remember it, but my mother told me I did. What I do remember is going to visit relatives with my grandparents one time, and my grandmother pointing out a goose that was my Easter chick. I only remember seeing it one time, but that memory lingers with me . . . . it was a darn big goose!
Anyhoo, here’s my first chick card . . . I’m sure there’s going to be a few more because I absolutely love the new images!
I teamed the image up with The Stamp Simply Lilac Avenue Kit, sponging the edges of all the paper before sewing the background layers to the base. I added just the image, but the design looked so bare to me that I made a frame from the glittery sheet that matched the background. If you look closely, you can see the glitter on the frame.

Well, I have another doctor’s appointment today and then I’m going to visit with my uncle, maybe a class tomorrow, and then my baby . . . Kate is getting married on Friday! Did I tell you? I know I posted on Facebook when I found out but I probably haven’t said anything here. They are going to the courthouse since they just bought a house . . . saving money bless their hearts . . . smart kids too . . . 
Anyhoo, thanks for stopping by today and remember . . . enjoy the adventures that come your way today, because life is short!
Love it!!! I like the twisted frame and the papers and the bow and the border….all of it! Thanks so much for sharing this morning. I think I need to go make some cards!!!! :o)

Oh how nice your Kate is getting married. Wishing her loads of happiness. Good wishes for you too Sherry at the DR’s. I love this vintage chic card. The image is so refreshing, a breath of Spring comes to mind. I always like it when you put the frame askew around the focal image. Lovely colors chosen. TFS!!! 😀
Simply GORGEOUS card Sherry!! (from another Sherry)
Just beautiful! I think I need to check out those images! I got a chick when I was young but my German Sheperd ate it. Yuck! Congrats on the wedding…hope it goes off without a hitch! Take lots of pictures!!!
What a beautiful image (I’ll have to check out the link)
WoW!! Congrats to Kate (and you!)!!!!!
(guess I should quit complaining about my calendar now, huh?!)
Beautiful card – I just love the paper. You have inspired me so much with your frames that I have started using them in my cards and now I can’t stop – I’m on a frame kick. Lovely work – Congrats to you and Kate on her wedding. Smart girl, saving her money for the house instead of all that hoopla.
beautiful card, Sherry! Love the chick image, too!
WOW! Stunning Sherry! I love that delicate image and it’s perfect for these yummy Lilac Ave papers! Hugs,
Awesome Card, everything about it is Easter. Brings back a lot of memories of our “Baby Chicks on the Farm”…. Really looks like you had fun with it.
Congrats..new family member…and Good Luck with the DOC.
Wow that is a gorgeous card, love those little chicks!
What a beautiful card, I realy love it.
The beautiful papers and colors are so fine.
Gorgeous card…love it! We always got little colored chicks…pink, blue or purple as children…
Congrats to Kate! And good luck to you with Dr. You will be in my thoughts today! Beautiful card and I visited the web site for these images. Looks like I’ll be going back there! Have a wonderful day!
Your cards are always beautiful. You are one my favorites.
As usual, beautiful card! Have you every made anything that looked crappy? Don’t think so!! Congratulations on your daughter’s marriage. Smart choice not to have a big wedding. I don’t know about other areas but here in NY having a wedding is a very expensive proposition. My daughter and son in law chose not to have a big wedding and “eloped” in Antigua. As a result they were able to buy a house after being married only one year. Much more important than the big fancy reception. The most important thing is that they’re happy!!
Congratulations becoming a new mom-in-law; you’ll make a great one! Your card is adorable and so spring-looking; lucky is the person who receives it 🙂
Gorgeous image and card, Sherry! Wow! Congrats to Kate on getting hitched! Smart kid saving all that money
This is beautiful. I love purple and yellow together. One of my guest bedrooms is painted yellow and I painted pansies around the window, door and closet. I have an Aunt who made me a beautiful quilt using the same colors. The room is so feminine. I went to Twisted Sisters site and they have some beautiful images. TFS.
Beautious!
too sweet, Congrats to Kate!
Gorgeous card!!!!! I love EVERYTHING about it!!!!!*/
Congratulations to you and your Daughter!
