Easter Blessings - Elizabeth Craft Designs Designer Challenge


This month's challenge at Elizabeth Craft Designs Blog is to create a project with an Easter theme. Make sure you hop over to their blog to be eligible for a giveaway. For today's challenge, Elizabeth Craft Designs will be giving away Gift Cards to use on their website to 3 lucky winners!  To enter, simply leave a comment on the Elizabeth Craft Designs Challenge Blog Post!  Good luck!  (I like comments here, too!!!)

I chose to work with a pink palette, using a subtle difference between the frame and the background in order to emphasize Blessings.  The butterfly is telling us that big changes are coming as the spring arrives and the earth wakens from its winter sleep.

Here is how you can make this card!

Supplies with links:
Blessings Prayers  QuietfireElizabeth Craft Designs
Flourished Frame  Quietfire |  Elizabeth Craft Designs
Butterfly Flourish  Quietfire |  Elizabeth Craft Designs
Clear Double Sided Adhesive Tape   Elizabeth Craft Designs
Soft Finish Cardstock 100lb  Elizabeth Craft Designs

Others:

Maja Designs papers

Instructions:

  1. Form a 7x6" tent fold card base from dark pink card stock. Cut a medium pink panel measuring 6 x 4 3/4" and mat with a pale blue card stock measuring about 1/8" larger on all sides.  Cut another mat from white measuring about 1/8" larger than the pale blue card stock on all sides. Adhere all the panels together.
  2. Die Cut the Flourished Frame from a pale pink card stock.  Die cut one Blessings and the butterfly from white card stock.  Die cut another Blessings from dark pink card stock.
  3. Adhere the two Blessings together with the darker one behind and slightly offset to form a drop shadow.
  4. Adhere all elements to the panels as shown and attach this to the card front with foam adhesive.
It's an easy card!  You can make it your own, by changing the colour of the card stock, or hand colouring each element.  Have fun!
