Easter Card for the In-Laws

Hello there! It has already been a great start to the weekend! My boss let me off work a whole hour and a half early, and the sun was shining when I got outside. Gorgeous! Let's hope the weekend stays this way! Today I am entering a few challenges with the Easter card I made for Matt's mom & step-dad: The Pink Elephant, Simon Says Stamp Challenge & Freshly Made Sketches. The theme for The Pink Elephant and Simon Says is Easter and Freshly Made has a nice sketch this week:

My card was inspired by a card on Splitcoast Stampers (see the original post here), a beautiful Easter daffodil:

I like the way it turned out, although it wasn't exactly how I pictured... I ended up rotating the flower from the bottom left corner to the bottom right and flipped the sentiment too. It still has the same feel to it as the sketch :) My favourite part of the card is most definitely the focal point, the daffodil with the hand cut grass shoots:

One thing I was not too pleased with with this card was the embossing folder... sometimes that particular folder tears the paper, which is what happened here :( oh well, it still turned out ok :)

Thanks for looking!
