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:
