Karen has such a lovely gallery of cards! I chose her leafy tree design, which I thought was so wonderful, in it's simplicity! I used a die cut like she did, but placed it on a smooshed watercolor BG I'd made, using mustard seed and picked raspberry distress inks. I popped the die cut panel up with foam tape. I'm going to use this for one of our Easter cards. Here's Karen's card.

This makes a beautiful Easter card, Sue. The die cut, I know, is an oval, but one can see it as an Easter egg with a pretty vine design and a sunrise scene within.

I missed that card of Karen's...I can see why you chose it, it is neat how she used the dies like that, and simple but so pretty, just like your one here. Love the details on your die and the soft sponging in the bg behind it...just like those fancy faberget.?, forget the total word....eggs...TFs..:0)
