This is my sample for CC837. Karen is our hostess and she chose old olive, pool party and pacific point for her color trio. Dessert option this week is anything Spring.
For my card I created an Easter card for a friend who like to bike ride. I used the Spring Bicycle die from CottageCutz and cut in pacific point cardstock.
For my background scene I stenciled the clouds in tumbled glass distress ink. The grassy area is sponged with peeled paint distress ink.
I cut a white fence with the Picket fence Border die from CottageCutz. For my flowers I used a blending brush and merry merlot (neutral) ink to get a softer shade of this color. Then for the tulip pistol I cut in merry merlot cardstock for interest.
To finish off my card I added a couple of bunnies in smoky slate (neutral), a few sequins and stamped my Easter sentiment.

It's fascinating to see how the addition of a few neutrals, including the beautiful Merry Merlot, really enhances this week's color palette. I love the sweet scene you created, love the bunnies especially!

Mary, your scene with all the clouds have been created beautifully. It's obvious your little bunnies are ready for Easter and all it's festivities! This is a prime example, that spring has sprung!
