It's time for another sketch challenge from Just Us Girls! (Here's a link.) I really liked this sketch, and thought it would work for my nephew's Easter card--yes, this is an Easter card! He is very firm about which colors are "girl colors" and which colors are "boy colors." (Are all 4-year-olds like this?) And he reminds me frequently that his favorite color is green. So, no girly pastels for Adrian! I thought this cute stamp set from Verve would "quack him up," just like it says, and the basket would still be Easter-y. I sure wish I had a teeny oval punch to make some Easter eggs to put in the grass. I do have a "Happy Easter" sentiment inside--maybe I'll try to improvise some eggs to put in there. :-DSupplies

Oh! This is SO cute! Love all that baker's twine! Such great colors! I love the paper piecing on the cute little duckie's bill and your shaded him beautifully!
Even without pastelly pink and purple, it's still a very springy card with that nice, bright green - he'll love it!
This is just adorable Jill! Love that little duckie and your choice of papers is perfect (love the plaid)!
Thanks for getting sketchy with Just Us Girls this week!

This is so adorable, Jill!! Love the colors and the twine! Your nephew sounds really cute. I totally get it too! I have a 5 year old nephew who is the same way. :)
Oh your card is so adorable (love that duck & basket), but perfect for a little boy. He will love it - unless he wants the duck green, too, lol!
