Easter Patchwork...

Hi there,

I'm just popping in quickly to share a card I made with this week's Colour Q colours and the layout from Freshly Made Sketches...


I used one of the sets in our new mini catty called Easter Blossoms, stamped the egg in Pool Party Pear Pizzazz and Calypso Coral (2nd generation ink) and cut them out. I added some Crystal Effects to make them shiny (I sprinkled some dazzling diamonds glitter onto the middle one). The sentiment was embossed with Cherry Cobler embossing powder and I embossed the top portion of the panel with the dotty embossing folder. The background was done with different coloured dsps and the 1 1/4" square punch.

That's all for now... thanks for stopping by!
