Easter!

Here is a quick and easy layout. I used 3 pieces of card stock in pink, lime green and chocolate. The printed paper is Spring Words from 3 Bugs in a Rug from the Scrapbook Shoppe on Airport Thru Way. I used paper tearing. The font is Slim Gym from Sizzix.

Orange Cheesecake Squares

I adapted a recipe from Pillsbury.com.

1 16.5 oz roll of refrigerator sugar cookie dough
2 Tablespoons orange zest
2 8 oz packages of cream cheese soft
1/4 cup of sugar
1/2 cup sweet orange marmalade
1/4 teaspoon orange extract
2 eggs

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Press cookie dough on the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 13x9x2 glass pan. Sprinkle evenly with orange zest.

In a medium bowl beat cream cheese, sugar, marmalade and orange extract with a hand mixer until well blended. Add eggs. Beat about 2 minutes more. Spread evenly over the cookie dough. Bake 39 minutes or until crust is golden brown and center is set. Cool 1 hour before cutting.

Easter/Spring Card Class

These are my cards for the Easter/Spring Card Class at the Scrapbook Shoppe on Airport Thru-Way. There are three teachers (Myself, Shelley and Claire). Each teacher is designing 2 cards and each student will make two of each style. The students will end up with 12 cards, two of each 6 designs. The date has not been set, so far. But it will be in March. All the paper is from Cheryl's Shoppe. PS. There is one Bonus Card. So you will end up with 13 cards.
