Hello Blogger Friends. Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with The Charmed life Blog today.
It's the Saturday before Easter. I was up early and off to the store to pick up the last items for my dinner tomorrow.
I am going to try a new recipe for one of my side dishes. It's asparagus with Dijon mustard cream sauce. I had it several years ago at a cooking class I went to and liked it. So hopefully the in-laws will like it as well. Just in case, I also decided to make baby carrots in a honey butter sauce.
For dessert I am serving an burnt almond torte. There is a local bakery that makes them and they are fabulous. So I am all set for dinner. The house is clean except for the kitchen. I just have to wipe up the floor and clean all the stainless steel appliances. That is an every other day job so not much to do there.
Now onto my card for today. This one I created for the color challenge #733. I was the hostess this week and I chose highland heather, gorgeous grape and pear pizzazz as my color trio. Optional was to make it Easter or Spring.
The egg painting bunny is a die from CottageCutz. The bunny is cut in baked brown sugar and crumb cake cardstocks (neutrals). I cut the other elements in the challenge colors. I stamped my sentiment in the corner at an angle for interest.
The background designer paper is from the Stampin'-Up "frosted floral specialty" collection. The color is gray granite as is the card base (neutrals). The center striped designer paper is from the Stampin Up "brights" collection.
Scattered a few highland heather sequins to complete this card. This card made its way to my neighbor for her little girl.
Well that's it for me for this post. Time to get busy with my la:minute chores.
