Ch643 Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Lawn Fawn, Spring/Easter Mood Board Inspiration

   Hi Everyone!


I am here to introduce a new challenge at the fun and awesome Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.

This week's challenge is to make a card inspired by the Spring/Easter Mood Board 
The team is showcasing products from:  Lawn Fawn




And this is my take:





I started by cutting a cardbase that I decorated with diecut letters and lovely images from Lawn Fawn that I colored (with copics) and diecut. I was inspired by the colors, the eggbasket and the sweet chicken.
