Easter Message Flowers

Easter Message.2.0317Ah…the Easter Lily.  Such a lovely flower.  I have a friend who can’t attend church on Easter or Christmas because of flower allergies.  Isn’t that a shame?  The sanctuary looks so beautiful when it’s filled with flowers.

I started this Easter card with the lilies and then thought that the fun Sale-a-bration glimmer paper would be a fun way to highlight them.  I used the glimmer paper both on the background oval and as a border on the embossed piece.

Just a reminder that the glimmer paper is no longer available as a Sale-a-bration item.  They ran out and since Sale-a-bration ends next week they won’t be ordering more.  Such a shame….the colors were so fun!  If I were to recreate this card without the glimmer paper I would just change it to regular Mint Macaron card stock.  The card stock might actually make the card a little “classier”.  What do you think?

I used my ink pads and a blender pen to color the stems and add a hint of color to the center of the flowers.  One of new favorite tools is the Petals Embossing Folder.  It’s my go-to embossing folder these days.  What’s your favorite?

Have a great day!  Take care and Happy Stamping!
