I wanted to create my Easter cards with the colors of the dresses I wore when I was a little girl. So, when I found the DCWV lavender polka dot I knew it was the right one.
I used watercolor paper and an ink wash with Twinkling H2Os over the top for a bit of shimmer. While these flowers are not Daffodils, they remind me of their sunny brillance.

Lovely card. Beautiful yellow flowers. Purple paper with dots is cute.
