Papercraft Star Challenge #41


     This week at Papercraft Star we have a color palette to choose from plus we'd like to see an Easter theme with it.  I've made a simple little card with a sweet vintage Easter card image I found on the internet.  It's dressed up with some pearls, little flowers and lovely seam binding.
     Our monthly sponsor is The Scrapbooking Cottage.  So get those projects linked up for a chance at a wonderful prize from them.   The submission deadline is 9:00 p.m. EST Sunday night, then come back and vote for your faves.
     Happy Wednesday!
