Easter Tree - Stampin' Up! Pick a Season

   I feel like it has been weeks since I posted a card but it's just been since Thursday when I headed out of town to go to the Stampin' Up! On Stage demonstrator event in Raleigh, NC.  It was a really fun time and it deserves it own post after I go through some photos and get back in the swing of things.  I did stamp a bit this afternoon and I was able to get this super bright Easter card made using colors that are the current customer stamping challenge.  I think the lighting when I took the photo makes it look even more bright.

  I still had the Sale-a-Bration stamp set Pick A Season on my desk and I thought the bright colors worked with the images.  I started with Lemon Lime Twist, then a layer of Basic White embossed with the Dotted Circles embossing folder.

  Next I added a panel of Celebrations Expressions Memories and More card pack which is coming out in the next annual catalog and we received at OnStage to use for make and take projects.  The color listed is Berry Burst but I think this pattern went perfectly with Petunia Pop.  These cards are a great way to add patterns and color to your cards; almost like DSP but already cut to smaller sizes.  

  The sentiment is from the Storybook Friends stamp set and is embossed on a strip of Petunia Pop with the end flagged. I stamped the tree and added the Easter eggs in Pumpkin Pie and colored in some bits of them with the Petunia Pop marker.  I fussy cut the tree and popped it on dimensionals.

Finally I added a baker's twine bow and some sequins to finish off the details. 

 Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?
