In your Easter bonnet

It's about that time again. Paas is gearing up their plant to produce lots of that cool color we mix with vinegar to color eggs with. Some people are pulling out the wax to color eggs the Ukranian way (I much admire people who do this). My next door neighbor hosted an egg hunt every year for the neighborhood children until our park was finished. I can remember as a child getting a frilly new dress to wear to church on Easter Sunday with my grandmother. My parents weren't much for church and as I grew older, I grew away from organized religion. But I'll always remember the feel of the new dress and the crenoline under it, and the way the fabric rustled when I moved.

This Easter bonnet is unique. The stamp is from Art Impressions, the paper is DCWV Indian Summer and DCWV Nana's Kids. The sentiment is computer generated. Copics used were: E11, E00, R21, RV04, Y21, Y19, Y02, Y18, C00, G82, Y35, YR16, R46, R43, B91, B93, C1, C3, YG25; Spicas: Clear, Lemon, Silver, Blossom & Baby Blue.
