ODBDSLC148 Thanks Be to God for Easter

Happy Tuesday Friends!! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend or Palm Sunday. It is hard to believe next week is Easter!! Usually I think of Spring when I think of Easter...not so this weekend. We got over 4 inches of snow and sleet!! Oh well...making cards with pastels made me feel like spring.

Today I would like to share one of those cards. Since next week is Easter, the Shining the Light challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs wants to see your Easter creations with the theme "He is Risen". Here is my creation using Scripture Collection 10, Let the Earth Rejoice and Happy Spring. The egg in the background is one I made out of wood using Words of Faith and Happy Spring/Pussy Willow and Egg for a centerpiece at Easter.

Card Recipe:
stamps: ODBD Stamps Used: Scripture Collection 10, Happy Spring, Let the Earth Rejoice
ODBD Dies Used: Recipe Card and Tags Die
other dies: Spellbinders Labels 27, Classic Circles, Cheery Lynn Fanciful Flourisih
accessories: May Arts Silk ribbon, prima flowers, flower ribbon (gifted), Darice Embossing Folder
