A Year in the Making...

Hello!  I have a card to share today that I started a year ago.  Yes, you read that correctly.  A whole year.  I created the background on my card base and never finished it, but I loved it too much to toss it.  

The background was simple.  I repeatedly stamped two eggs from Pretty Pink Posh Spring Eggs in kraft ink onto kraft cardstock.  Then I used a white gel pen to color in the designs.  I have to say, I absolutely adore how it looks.  
Waiting a year allowed for the release of new products, so I pulled out my favorite Fall Foliage dies and cut various leaf sprigs in white and pale pink.  I arranged them on my card and added a few pink blush pearl accents.  
I pulled out the Birthday Scripts Stamp set and dies and embossed "Happy" in white onto black cardstock.  Next I inked up a partial sentiment in Easter Signs to get just "Easter".  A little foam tape to pop the sentiment up and my card was finally complete.  
Sometimes I think I'm crazy for holding on to unfinished cards because I rarely circle back to them, but I'm so glad I did this time.  I sure appreciate you stopping by today!  I hope you are headed into a wonderful weekend friends! (PS Don't forget that you can still snatch Pretty Pink Posh's Easter products on sale HERE for a few more days.)
