This is my sample for CC886. Karen is our hostess and she chose pale papaya, flirty flamingo and mango melody for her color trio. Dessert option this week is any 4th color. I used green.
For my card I used the Exotic tulips stamp set from Altenew. It's one of those triple stamping sets. But you get such dimension of color with them.
I stamped my first layer with pale papaya, the 2nd layer is stamped once with flirty flamingo and the 3rd layer is stamped 2x with flirty flamingo.
For my leaves and stem I used pear pizzazz and old olive to cover our dessert option. The Happy Easter sentiment is a set from SNSS.
My background designer paper is from the "artfully composed" collection from Stampin' Up. That's my card for this week. I hope you can play along with us. These are perfect colors for florals.

Marvelous tulips! Love the dimension with the triple stamping. Wonderful framing. A lovely Easter card. These beautiful colors inspired us both to use tulips. Gorgeous card!

Your multi-layered parrot tulips are gorgeous, Mary, and perfectly aligned (which I never seem to be able to do!). I love all the layering, the DS paper (so subtle) and the bold Easter greeting!

What a piece of art, Mary! I love your framing of these beautiful blooms. The vellum layer adds wonderful, but subtle, interest without detracting from the tulips.
