Ok, so I've used a Lilli of the Valley image again.... but what's a girl to do when they are just sooooo lovely!
I hope that everyone is enjoying their Easter break.
Hubby is at the football, so I'm indulging in a little bank holiday crafting. I also found time to try out a new banana bread recipe this afternoon and I have to say that it smells fabulous! I'm looking forward to tucking into it later with a big cup of hot chocolate... yum!
This simple little Nestie card was so quick and easy to make. 
I coloured the image earlier in the week and just added the finishing touches today. I think that Nestie cards make a fabulous 'fallback' when you need a cute card in a hurry! I swooshed a little silver Versacolour over some D'vine Swirls embossing for a quick and simple background.

It's 'Blue and silver' for week #50 over at the Lili of the Valley Challenge Blog and the Flutterby Wednesday Challenge is for 'Blue, white and green'.
I'm also linking this card to the following challenges:
Papertake Weekly Challenge - Open week.
Stamptacular Sunday Challenge #53 - 'Sugar and spice and everything nice'
Crafty Creations girls - 'Anything goes'
One stitch at a Time Challenge #7 - 'Anything goes'
'Shapes Galore' at A Spoonful of Sugar.
One small card... so many challenges!
Just before I sign off I hope you don't mind if I share these latest pictures of my niece. 
Guess who didn't really want Auntie to photograph her wearing bunny ears!!!
She'll love these pictures when she's 21!
Happy crafting everyone!
