Its time for another Cricut cut challenge over on the BBTB2 blog. This time the challenge is to cut any egg from any Cricut cartridge. Easter is just around the corner....gasp!!! I just LOVE spring time!!!
I decided to make a quick Easter Banner. I used the egg on Doodlecharms cut at 10' for my banner.
The letters I cut from Winter Woodland at 2.5"
The patterned paper is from the DCWV Flower Shower stack...an oldie but a goodie!
I finished off my banner with some pink ribbon and Recollection goodies from Michaels.
Quick, simple and fun!

Dont you just LOVE the fonts on these sets!!! This is going to be ONE of the Birthday cards I make for my BFF. She is turning 36 later on this month.
