Happy Easter, everyone! There are just so many Easter lenses to feature today, I don’t know where to start.

I decided, with the new Cupcake Club up and going, I’d feature RMS’s The Cutest Easter Cupcakes Ever.

And, with the relatively new linchpin: Easter is Jesus’ Story: He’s Alive!

Today is Palm Sunday, a Christian day of celebration which remembers the triumphant entry of Jesus into Jerusalem. Palm Sunday is always one week before Easter.

Palm Sunday is celebrated differently around the world. Many will receive palm branches during their worship service. Many will participate Palm Sunday processions.

Folding palms has become a tradition in many parts of the world. The most popular being a simple cross. I fold palm crosses every year, as well as make an all-palm arrangement in a vase that features palm roses.

Today is Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent. Lent, of course, being the forty days preceding Easter which is celebrated in the Christian faith as a time of prayer, preparation and self-denial.
