That's a lot of lovely colors for today's Color Challenge! I used all except the brown sugar. I have quite a stash of paper I hand marbled a long time ago & since every piece is one of a kind, I made color copies to use & the background is one of those.
In order to die cut the ducks, I had to do a little out of the box technique. The top part was a little trickier...when I die cut the Daisy Garden die, I lined up the die to determine where to cut the pierced rectangle out of the remainder. I did that because I wanted the marbled paper to show through the Daisy Garden die and I didn't want to have to hand cut it. I did the same w/ the turquoise layer. Worked perfectly! I paper pieced the little Easter eggs on the image out of more of the marbled paper.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups, a look at the marbled paper before I cut it & the Copics I used are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Julie, this card is so sweet! You must be an engineering genius to have figured out how to make all of the parts fit together so perfectly! I love the cute little ducks. Wonderful card!

This is a really amazing card - and there is just so much to look at and take in. Love it. The background paper you created is lovely - and looks perfect with the die over the top and those little duckies are gorgeous too.
