Our February New Release Mini:
Spring Joy


I used the lily from the Blessings set and colored it with prismacolor pencils and gamsol.

For the card layout I used Stampin-Up's lap of luxury designer paper that I won on Ann Schach's blog. Thanks again Ann. This paper works perfectly with my Easter lily image. I used a 1 1/4" punch to cut my squares.

I die cut a flourish, added some pearls, and placed the lily image over that. I used some concord crush ribbon and a pearl pin. I stamped the Easter sentiment on a tag to complete my card.

Next stop on the hop is Dawn's blog. See you tomorrow for our final day.
