Well, I am a day late and a dollar short! LOL! I am a day late (for one challenge) and posting the "day of" for another. Thank you, Robin (Stamperrobin), for yesterday's great Free for All challenge to use flowers (an easy one for me). And thank you, Audrie (geekgirl101), for today's Inspiration Challenge. I decided to finish my gift set of cards and used this card and this card as my inspiration. I used a fancy frame like the first card and gilded the edges and used an oval for my focal image like the second card that also had daffodils. (This is the digital image, but now there is an entire clear set with this image in it!) I think they all will make a nice gift set. I am a "tortoise" when it comes to making cards these days, but at least I made a card this week! Yay!
Thanks for looking, and I hope you like it. Wishing you a blessed Easter! (More thoughts on my blog.)

The lace and the gold are exquisite details but the star is the image you colored so very beautifully! One of the things I love about this image is the cute snail-makes this both beautiful and a bit whimsical.

These daffodils are gorgeous, Cheryl; your colouring brings the image right to life with the soft sky blue shading them. Soft sky is one of my all time favourite colours and your bg paper with the beautiful white overlay is something to swoon about. And, madame tortoise, slow and steady wins the race)
