Easter Blessings Card

It's Good Friday and I hope everyone is having a blessed Easter weekend. I have my lone Easter card for my mother-in-law to share this year. Another of my favorites cards to make, it's loaded with stuff and quite busy. She loves those kind, too, so win-win! Honey's delivering in person tomorrow, so lumpy's okay. And, I used up some of my stash and paper scraps, yay! I must have every color of flower Prima ever put out in their early days. People today forget that's how they first made their name. Here I also used Doodlebug and Making Memories.


I used the current Outlawz Wednesday sketch. This is my edited copy, after resizing to 6x6 and turning on the grid view in PSE to measure the layers.

SUPPLIES:
Chatterbox textured card stock, SU card stocks
Stamps: Cornish Heritage Farms Kim Hughes Baked With Love front sentiment, Autumn Leaves, I Brake for Stamps, Avery Elle
Ink: Memento
Collage sheet image: Twisted Papers
Dies: Spellbinders Crosses 2, Intertwined Spirals, Timesless Heart Leaf Frames and Renaissance Jubilee Label 56; My Favorite Things Photo Corners and Jumbo Fishtail Banner Stax; Avery Elle Dotted Elle-ments
Paper flowers and brads, ribbon and lace from my stash

Here's how I began, trying to sort out the right shades and blends of pinks. I was trying to see if I could comply with multiple color challenges, which I believe I have done. Some weeks, they are all just similar enough!

 
The inside and back of card. I needed some card stock on the back to lend some weight and structure since the Chatterbox base is a little thin.




CHALLENGES:
1. Outlawz Wednesday Sketch Challenge April 17-30
2. Outlawz Tuesday Color TicTacToe Board Challenge April 9-22 - I used the bottom row: flowers, shades of pink and feminine, and my collage sheet image is multicolored.
3. Rainbow Card Challenge #4: Perfectly Pink - I worked off the different pink shades, the checkered pink print and the flowers.
4. Paper Girls Challenge #174: Spring Color Inspiration Board - I believe I have all the colors, thanks to my collage sheet focal point.
5. Time Out Theme Challenge #133: Use 2 or More Embellishments - I have 2 ribbons, and more than 2 flowers. I did not take the optional one layer card twist.
6. Country View April Challenge: Easter or Spring - my card is both
7. Use Your Stuff Challenge #355: Easter / Spring - my card is both
8. Ike's Art Challenge #119: D is for Dies + AG - I used several diecuts on my card - see Supplies.
9. Try it on Tuesday: Springtime
10. Moo Mania Challenge #189: Spring Fever
11. Brown Sugar Challenge #289: Spring or Fall - I chose Spring
12. Sparkles Monthly Challenge #115: Flowers or Religious - my card is both
