I wanted to use Easter colors today, because they make me feel joyful. So that is what inspired this card....
I started by creating my background. I used Tim Holtz distress inks with glossy card stock. I swiped the mini stamp pads across the paper, then turned it 90 degrees and swiped them again, alternating colors as I swiped. These dried super quick.
On black card stock, I cut the Impression-Obsession Die 152-N along the left edge. I lined the back with some of the background I had created.
I black-embossed the lilies, cross, and Rejoice from the Impression-Obsession MC73 Easter Lily clear set onto the background paper, then cut it into the shape of an Easter egg. I mounted it to the card with craft foam, and added a pretty purple ribbon.
Easy-peasy, but I like the way it came out.
I am entering my card in these challenges:
Impression-Obsession - Pick A Holiday
Make My Monday - Easter Fun
Sunday Stamps - Easter palette
