This card’s concept is based on digital elements from a set called Antoinnette’s Easter, that explains why the duckling is wearing a classic wig. I love how fun, different and unexpected that image is. It was printed in wallet size, framed, and layered over a delicate floral paper from the same set. The outer frame was adhered to a smaller regular cut card base, to ensure stability. The card base is actually pink, you might notice it if you look closely, and it matches the duckling’s feathers perfectly. To finish the design I added some ribbon and pearls. And that’s quite it! I hope you like it. I enjoyed doing it… It’s a fun Easter card for sure.

Congratulations Gracie. I love your little duck, looks like cotton candy…so soft and cuddly. The frames you used make it appear like a portrait that could be hanging in a museum. Great job. Hope you have a great Easter with you family…don't forget to hide some eggs for your little adventurer.
