I love to color. The more the better. I not only colored on the lillies on this card, but I colored the whole sheet music background. I stamped the lillies from Mark's Finest Papers set called Blessings. I chose not to make the all white Easter lillies, and choose to color them like Resurrection Lillies. I have these planted in my yard, and they are such a beauty when they bloom in August. I had never heard of Resurrection Lillies until I moved to Iowa. I drew and cut out the cross. I paper punched circles and glued them on top of eachother to add dimension. The sheet music is for the old hymn Christ Arose. I hope everyone has a wonderful blessed Easter!

Your card is so pretty MariLynn!! I love the way you colored the lilies and the background sheet music. I did not know that Resurrection Lilies are pink. I have learned something from you. Thank you for sharing your beautiful card, and I wish you a blessed Easter as well.
Your card is beautiful because it is about our savior and our salvation. To me this is by far the most signifigent holiday we have. Can you imagine when they went to get the body of Jesus and they rolled back the stone and said it is empty! Wow. Have a blessed Easter. I love this card.
