The Paper Players #728

Take a peek at the Color Challenge at The Paper Players and I'd bet money you'd see the perfect palette for your first Easter card for 2025 - at least that's what I saw!

 


A wonderful friend sent me a fabulous gift and it only took a few days to put it to paper:


I just love Jaydee's pastels on this creamy, dreamy paper - first debossed with a cover die from ASD then I even found a piece of it embossed with that gorgeous woodgrain from Simon Hurley for Spellbinders - a wooden egg?  why not!  
These darling Layered Tulips from Waffle Flower Crafts were cut from scraps and snippets - I think I have all the pastels covered... except lavender! shucks.  [When you see all the purple I've used for my DT cards this year you'll wonder how I missed it!]  I'll bet I will be excused for that misstep.  

Our weather is so wonderful right now - I'm not a girl who loves hot weather so the 50's are feeling just about perfect for late Winter.  Hope you're enjoying some warmth and sunshine, too - thanks for stopping by!

So very pretty, Michele! Love it. Yes, we are having a lovely false spring in my neck of the woods!

Whether there’s lavender in there or not this card is so springtime fresh that even your bunny approves!

It has been beautiful here in the northeast. It's supposed to hit 67 today. Your card is so full of spring. I love the way you used to colors, your background and your lovely wooden egg. I recently acquired both the tulip dies and the EF. Time to get working with them!

A perfect Easter card with those soft and dreamy pastel colors Michele, and I am head over heels in LOVE with those tulips!! (Please bring on the 19th??) Loving the background and the wooden egg too! Lovely, lovely card my friend! And yes, the weather is perfect for me too...not too cold and not too hot...just right!! Hugs. :0)

It's hard to believe Easter so far away still, but this card is a great Springtime representation of blessings to come! Enjoy the weather, I know I'm enjoying ours here

I love the detail on these tulips and those spring colors are just right even without the lavender. I love that woodgrain egg! I think they'll be showing up in my craft room soon. Nice weather here too.

Michelle this is an amazing Easter card. I adore those tulips (do I need more?) and the embossed details are amazing!!
