Monthly Calendar Challenge - April 2010

Hi there,

Today's post is for my Monthly Calendar Challenge for April. 

The theme for April is Easter.

I totally enjoyed creating these calendar's and I love the finished projects.  The first one is themed on the spiritual significance of Easter. I wanted to create a soft and elegant design.

Embellishments: Pearls, Satin Ivory Ribbon

Tools: Cuttlebug, Spellbinders Labels Four, Labels One, Corner Round Punch, Computer and Printer for Sentiment and Calendar, Dimensionals, Bow Easy, Glue Dot

The second one was a lot of fun to design with plenty of bright colours and embellishments.

I have decided to try a different Link system, it actually shows a picture of your calendar, and works much the same as Mr. Linky. 

Thanks for taking a peek, let me know if you like them.  If you like the calendars and would like to have a go, I would love for you to join in my monthly challenge. You can find the details here.
