			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here are a couple of Easter Cards I recently made. They both use the new Swiss dot Cuttlebug embossing template I picked up at Hobby Lobby last week. <img src='http://laura-griffin.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   </p>
<p>Card #1 uses Papertrey Ink flowers, border, &#038; sentiment stamp.  I created a dimensional window by cutting out a square from an embossed piece of white cardstock &#038; then mounting with foam dots onto the front of a square card.</p>

<p>Card #2 uses a small sentiment from the Mixed Message Papertrey Ink set.  I first punched out two squares from an embossed sheet &#038; two pink squares that I randomly stamped with the Easter sentiment.  After assembling, I added a dimensional chipboard flower in the center.  It was a great find from Target.  They actually sell these darling stickers in the giftwrap department.  I think you&#8217;re supposed to put them on gift bags or something&#8230;but they scream cards to me! *LOL*  You can get a sheet of around 5 or 6 chipboard stickers for less than $2&#8230;this flower came from a set on clearance for 99 cents!  The lined border on the card was made using my Scor-pal&#8230;I love that thing!  What can I say, I&#8217;m a sucker for new crafting gadgets. <img src='http://laura-griffin.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   How about you?</p>
