Easter is coming

I was challenged to make a card without sponging any edges, something I have not done for such a long time so I decided to do a card with fresh colours.

So here is my Easter swivel top card using the A Good Egg stamp set. This card I saw in the Splitcoast stampers gallery last year before we even got this stamp set. I loved it then & made a sketch of it in the hope we would get this set sometime. Unfortunately I cannot find the original card now but when I do I'll add the link here.

Swivel card

This card I made for a challenge which involved using the colour family of Soft Subtles only. I have to confess to not using soft subtles as much as I should but with spring coming up this may change.

I have seen these swivel cards on other people's blogs so I thought it was about time I had a go at one myself so here it is.

This is the front

And here is the swivel part where can decorate more or add your own message.

To add the leafs to the flower I used the same 5 Petal Punch but cut the petals down & added veins to make them into the leafs.



Hope you enjoyed this & watch out for more challenge entries. To view the original challenge click here:http://kyliebertucci.blogspot.com/2010/01/soft-subtle-challenge.html
