My Last Easter Card (hopefully)

This card was not going the way I had planned yesterday, so I slept overnight, and changed some things this morning. I really like the way it ended up. This card is for 4 challenges:

The Ribbon Carousel's challenge was Springtime.
This was the sketch for Cards & Things:

I used the colors from ColourQ:

I interpreted these colors as Blush, Sorbet, Buttercup, Garden Green, and White Daisy.

The last challenge was my main inspiration. Runway Inspired:

I was inspired by her white dress, her clean and simple look, and the solid green in her sleeve. I tried to mimic the splash of color from the side of her cardigan in my egg with lots and lots of embellishments.
Materials used:
Paper: White Daisy, Garden Green cardstock
Stamps: A Typeface
Ink: Garden Green
Other: Lots of embellishments including ribbon, buttons, sparkles, opaques, pretty pins, brads, and more.

Now I have enough Easter cards to send off to my family all over the country :) Hopefully.
