An Easter Note Card Collection

Is it really possible that we will be celebrating Easter in just a few days?
Something seems to be a little "off" this year...weather wise.
Here in NC, we had 80 temps over the weekend and I planted flowers.
Tonight, it is supposed to get down to 29 degrees. Really??

Well, it IS what it IS, so the saying goes...
...it's all GOOD!

Jesus has risen from the dead and we are CELEBRATING this week!
AMEN!

Now...on to see what's going on at Vee's Note Card Party...shall we?



This opulent little egg belonged to my hubby's grandmother.
It was given to me by my mother-in-law, years ago, shortly after we married.
Isn't it beautiful? I call it the "mystery egg" because I know absolutely nothing about it.
Is it china? Ceramic?  How old is it? Is there a name for it? I have so many questions!
There are no identifying marks on it anywhere and there is no one left to ask.
I know I should have done so years ago...oh well...
...instead I put it in my china cabinet and thought no more about it.
Now that I have a bunch of blogging buds, many who are collectors,
I am hoping someone out there sees it and can offer a little information about it.
Anyone???



And who doesn't just adore dogwoods?
Along with the redbud, these are among my favorite sights of spring.
Many times the dogwood tree is related to the crucifiction...
...being that there is a legend that the cross was made from the dogwood.
It really doesn't matter if it's true or not in the grand scheme of things, does it?



And speaking of dogwoods, how about a pink one?
This lovely tree grows in the parking area of the medical office where I work.
It is currently in all of it's glory.
This photo doesn't quite do it justice but I thought it made a pretty backdrop for my card.
Pink dogwoods just make me smile...real big :)

And this last card...well it pretty much speaks for itself.

A few months back I posted about how I came upon this cross...

...and about how something so terrible became something so beautiful.

Three simple words—one simple sentence.

IT IS FINISHED.

Wow...sometimes it's still difficult to take it all in...

...there is no greater love.

So...these are my cards.

And they all fit nicely into their box.

I hope everyone has a beautiful Holy Week with a marvelous Easter Sunday!

After chilly temps for a day or two, we are to be back in the 70's for the weekend!

Blessings to all!
