This is my card for CC520. Vicki is our hostess and she chose coastal cabana, real red and daffodil delight for her color trio. Dessert is to make a thank you card.
I didn't re-read my email with the challenge colors before I made my card. And, I used so saffron instead - oops!!. I think I would have liked the daffodil delight much better on my card but too late now. I will blame it on being sick over the weekend.
I decided to try these colors for an Easter card. With a downplay on the red, I think they worked. I recently purchased 2 new to me Impression Obsession dies after seeing this card by KittieKraft. I used it for my inspiration this week.
The background is the Impression Obsession Easter cutout square. I paper pieced the flowers with real red.
My sentiment is the Impression Obsession Easter Joy die. I cut in real red and layered the coastal cabana cut over that.
Now I have 1 Easter card finished. That's my card for this week.
Hope you can play along. You may be our next CC Fave of the week and have your card featured on our highly viewed Pinterest Board. See board here.

What a wonderful use of all those new dies. So much to look at and take in and of course add to my ever growing wish list. Love how you have used just a little splash of red for the flowers.

My goodness, Mary, those bunnies look like they are having the most joyful romp among the tulips and trees. They are ecstatic that the tulips have popped their bold colour onto the white landscape. Waiting eagerly to feel the same!
