Easter Blessings...

 Hello!  Hope you are having a good day.   Popping in with a card for a few challenges:   Paper Players, Fusion and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge.   The Paper Players challenge is to create a clean and simple card with an animal.  I have a butterfly on my card and so I hope that counts, but if you look really closely at the light blue oval there are tiny rabbits on it.    The inspiration photo at Fusion features eggs.  Obviously I didn't use eggs on my card, but I did use the sketch and I tried to capture some of the colors found in the inspiration photo.  Finally, I used three different patterned papers per the SSS Wednesday challenge to use two or more patterned papers.  The papers and the butterfly are from a Spellbinders kit from 2020 called Feeling Hoppy.   I die cut the two rectangles using the Spellbinders Essentials Rectangle dies.  The oval was cut with an original Spellbinders classic oval die.   The sentiment is from A Jillian Vance Design and was heat embossed in white on vellum.  Even with the patterned papers the card is very clean and simple. 



Thanks for stopping by and have a lovely day!
