Happy Easter Challenge At Impression-Obsession

It's time for a new challenge at the Impression-Obsession blog .  The theme is Happy Easter.  And what says Easter more than Easter lilies?  

I used stamps from the Impression-Obsession set:
Lilies Of The Field CL929.  

I water colored the image using Daniel Smith watercolors, then added shading and highlights with Polychromos colored pencils.  
I studied some pictures of white flowers, and they all seemed to have colors in the white petals where there were shadow areas, not just gray.  So, I copied what I saw in nature.

I die-cut the image panel, and distressed the edges with soft pink distress ink, then added another stitched rectangle to layer it onto.  Then I added it all to a soft pink A2 card front.  

I added the Blessed Easter (from the same stamp set), cut with an oval die, with foam tape.  Some pearl accents finish the front design. 

I love the soft, spring colors of this gentle card.  White flowers are always a challenge for me to 'color.'  But I do love them.


For the inside:

I hope you will join us for this challenge.  You could just be a winner of a $25 gift certificate to the Impression-Obsession store!  You can't win if you don't play!
