Cards of the week - baaaaaaaaaaaah!!

{Lamb Table Confetti by The Green Grass Grows}

Spring is here! Easter is coming & so are all the fun symbols that remind us of it. Bright pastels arrive with bunnies, Peeps, sheep & more. April Cards of the Week posts will be honoring our furry friends of Easter.

Like Sheep. Baaaaaaaaaahhh!!! After this post from last week, you guys must have seen this coming...

{Mixed Animal Pack of Animal Notecards by rachellelevingston}

This stunning watercolor card is one in a multi-pack of 4x6 animal cards by rachellelevingston on Etsy. The others, 2 rabbits & a cat, are equally amazing. You won't want to part with them!

{Farmyard Animals by PaperInkPress}

Another set of animal cards, but these are a completely different style. Letterpress printing brings sophistication to the simple illustration. I think these are charming! Paper Ink Press has many other cards worth visiting her shop for.

{Sheep printable stationery by Happy Paper on Etsy}

This is a cool listing. Sheep Printable Stationery has the above sheep illustration on each piece. You'll be able to print out as many folded or flat notecards, gift tags, envelopes, etc as your lamb-loving heart desires - by Happy Paper from Argentina.

By the way, take a wild guess how many sheep cards there are on Etsy? A lot. Pages, and pages, and pages...and pages. And since I've only highlighted my top picks here, there are obviously many amazing items that I left out. There was also plenty that didn't suit my taste {Thank Ewe? Ug.} but different strokes for different folks.

My usual Friday COTW post was late! I had this post all prepared, along with another one that I was holding & the whole weekend went by. Agg!! So, lucky you, reader, gets 2 COTW posts this week. Look for it on Thursday...

Cutest. Sheep. Ever.

{Miniature Felted Sheep by ProjectsByCarm}

My fellow NewNew teammate - Projects By Carm - has adorable things in her Etsy shop. Namely, these 2 items for sheep. How. Cute. Are. These?!?!

{Hand Knit Felted Lamb}

{another view of the mini sheep. le sigh}

The knitted sheep are knit in pieces, then wet felted, stuffed & stitched together. She has items set up for the blue & white ones or can make the other tan/brown sheep pictured as a custom item. All of them are great & together like that, as they are pictured in a little flock, is really adorable.

The smaller felted sheep are needle felted. {Martha has some info on it if you're interested in the technique.} I want a bunch to put out as Easter decorations. Carm has had requests for them to be strung with yarn for Christmas ornaments. Also a good idea!

Stop by ProjectsByCarm & check out her other wool items. She has some great hats!
