Easter Bliss

Thank You in Blue

I hope you are all enjoying the long Easter weekend. We have family visiting so it's very busy in our house at the moment but I thought I'd take time out to show you this card I made.

I have used a 7"x 7" (18cm x 18cm) card base and matted and layered blue card and a paper by First Edition. I made panels with a Michele R Designs paper and one I created from a vintage text. The sentiment was computer generated.

The image was given to me by the generous Sandra Caldwell for taking part in a bookmark competition held by Holley during her February celebration month. It's called Thank You. It's such a delightful image and can be used for so many different occasion cards.
I coloured this one with Copics before matting onto blue card.

I coloured white flowers from Wild Orchid and used a Cheery Lynn die to create the flourishes. The bow has been dyed with Distress Inks.
A big Thank You to both Holley and Sandra Caldwell for this wonderful image, it will get plenty of use.
Enjoy the rest of your Easter weekend and try not to over indulge on chocolate.
