The challenge was to CASE our own card. I decided to CASE my most viewed card and my least viewed card. This is my most viewed card that I CASE'd Swirled Dazzling Razzleberry Foil by fishymom at Splitcoaststampers
I changed the colors, sentiment and stamp. I made this for my husband for Easter and there is a story behind it. Thirty years ago, we lived in a rented townhouse for a few months while ours was being built. In the courtyard, these two long, slender leaves popped up. I knew it was some sort of bulb, but it never bloomed. When we moved, I took the bulb with us and planted it. The next year, it bloomed on Easter morning, a beautiful orange Amaryllis with cream colored center. We are now in our fourth home and still have bulbs from that one original little bulb! Every year we look forward to them blooming and they always remind us of our simple beginnings.

Oh my, what a beautiful story behind your beautiful card - aren't you glad you didn't give up on the bulb that didn't bloom at first - there's a lesson in that! This is a LOVELY Easter card!

So very pretty! This is a great Easter card, the textured background is perfect. The original with the tree was shining and pretty. Both cards look great!
