Well, I am a day late and a dollar short! LOL! I am a day late (for one challenge) and posting the "day of" for another. Thank you, Robin (Stamperrobin), for yesterday's great Free for All challenge to use flowers (an easy one for me). And thank you, Audrie (geekgirl101), for today's Inspiration Challenge. I decided to finish my gift set of cards and used this card and this card as my inspiration. I used a fancy frame like the first card and gilded the edges and used an oval for my focal image like the second card that also had daffodils. (This is the digital image, but now there is an entire clear set with this image in it!) I think they all will make a nice gift set. I am a "tortoise" when it comes to making cards these days, but at least I made a card this week! Yay!
Thanks for looking, and I hope you like it. Wishing you a blessed Easter! (More thoughts on my blog.)

Lovely card and what a gorgeous addition to your other cards. Great coloring and the gold tipping around the edges brings an elegant touch to this beauty. Oh and that snail is pretty cute ;)

Cheryl, when I saw your card my immediate reaction was: how could she ever recreate a masterpiece? Yikes, you are so amazingly talented. Your cards are always on par with professionals that sell their art. This card and the ones you referenced as your inspiration are beyond anything I could ever even think about. Beautiful art, Cheryl. Happy Easter.
