This is my submission for Monday's TLC577, Smackin' Acetate Technique, and CAS368, Spring Critters.
The Smackin' Acetate Technique is featured on the the land behind the lamb (it took me three tries). The lamb represents a spring critter. I suspect most wouldn't call a lamb a critter, however, having been raised on a small farm, every spring we looked forward to the births our little "spring critters"; lambs, chicks, calves, piglets, foals, etc. Thus, my "spring critter" is a lamb.
As for the rest of the design, I sewed (or tried to) yellow flowers around the border of the card to replicate the yellow flowers around the lamb, which I colored with copics.
There is more details about the true representation of this card on my site, if interested.

Well gosh, there's no"tried to" about that sewing, it's amazing! What a sweet Easter lamb in his field of daffodils; the TLC background makes a lovely soft setting for him.

Awesome! Love the spring lamb with the daffodils and the three crosses behind. Your stitched border is amazing and it does coordinate with the daffodils. The die-cut piece is beautiful. Your background turned out fabulous. Wonderful card. Great job with all the challenges! TFS
