Three years ago I bought some Easter cards kits in the post-Easter Tesco sales super cheap and tucked them away in the cupboard ready for the following year... and promptly forgot all about them! Little E loves making Easter cards, our favourites were the palm stampers we used a couple of years ago, so when we found these earlier this week she was excited to get started. We had 2 kits to make: A glitter set containing 4 cards and a sticking kit containing 12 cards. Little I was keen to join in the crafting and we started with the glitter cards. They had sticky panels which you expose one by one allowing you to add different colour glitter to different areas of the pictures. There aren't any photos of this bit as it was pure chaos! Little I was chucking the glitter around like a mad woman while Little E and I tried to coax her to sprinkle it actually on the card.the finished effect looks great though. After I had cleared up the glitter and mentally ordered a stiff drink for that evening we continued and the sticking bit was much calmer. The girls stuck the bunnies and lambs onto the cards and added an Easter message. Pritt Stick worked well and we quickly had a pile of cards to write and deliver with our Easter gifts. So another successful Easter craft project completed. I am super excited to start the Easter fun tomorrow!

The cards look fab. Glitter is always so much fun, despite being such a nightmare at the same time. Hope you enjoyed your drink ;)
