Easter Blessings

Hello!  Happy Saturday!  There were so many wonderful cards to be inspired by from the March Papertrey release that I decided I needed to make some time to play along with their Create With Us Challenge.   I especially loved a floral card Laurie Willison created for the release.  I'm away from home, but I brought some PTI goodies I ordered a month ago and had never used, some ink, ink blenders, scissors, and glue with me, and this is what I came up with.  Simple, but I love it!  Even though I specifically bought Peonies on Parade because I want to learn how to color better, I still ended up just using the outline images...oy.  Someday I'll work on the coloring thing. :) Thanks so much for stopping by!

Supplies (all PTI)
Stamps: Keep It Simple: Easter, Peonies on Parade
Ink: Aqua Mist, Bright Buttercup, Limeade Ice, Raspberry Fizz, Royal Velvet, Summer Sunrise

  1. I ADORE your take on Laurie's card! The outlines are fabulous...they provide a light and airy feel that works so well with the soft blue background.

  2. WOW, Lindsay, you rocked this challenge with limited supplies and not at home. Why do I feel the need to keep buying more if all I need are a few supplies? Your ink blending really adds the perfect touch to your floral arrangement. Beautiful indeed!

  6. Oh wow!! This is STUNNING!! I love that you are away but bringing supplies along with you to create. I need to do this more often. I love how you used this set with the leaving the outlines of different colors and the shaded background. I bought this set too but it is sitting in my pile of unused supplies waiting to be played with. Beautiful card!!
