Easter Tulips

Hello Blogger Friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with The Charmed Life Blog today. 

It's the Thursday before Easter. I am having dinner at my home on Sunday. It will just be a small group. My brother-in-law and his wife and my hubby and I. We enjoy their company so it will be a good day.

My mother-in-law is not wanting to leave the house anymore or get out of her pajamas each day. She is 92 now. So, we are just letting her do what she wants instead of forcing her to come for dinner. I did offer to cook my dinner at home and bring it over to my sister-in-law's home where Mom lives but the offer was declined. 

Now onto my card for today. This is another of my Easter cards. I used new dies from CottageCutz - Spring Tulips and the He is Risen dies. 

I knew the layout I had in mind with the tulips when I started this card. So the first thing I did was cut them in a bright pink (polished pink)cardstock. I used a brighter green (granny apple green) for the stems and leaves. I also cut the He is Risen phrase in the same pink cardstock.

I decided to do a bit of stenciling on the white background. I used a light hand with salvaged patina distress ink and a sponge dauber for the stencil work.

Next, I attached the tulips along the bottom and up the left side of the card using a clear drying adhesive.

Now onto my He is Risen phrase. I attached it with the same clear drying adhesive.

And that's my card for today. So until next time.......God bless.
