It's 72 degrees, sunny and I'm loving it! I know it's fleeting, but I'll take it when I can get it!
Playing here and there when my hand cooperates. Thank you to those who left well wishes here and via email. I have an appointment with a hand specialist next week. Right now I know there are two cysts accompanied by pain in other areas. Too much use brings on swelling. Not what a card maker wants, right? Anyway, you came here for a card!
This is my first try with this pretty Altenew 3D embossing folder. I did some soft coloring with a waterbrush and watercolor pencils. I'm not thrilled with it, but it's not horrible either!!
Off we go to The Paper Players gallery. Thanks for stopping by!

Hi lisa,
So sorry your hand is giving you trouble, I hope you will get healing and relief soon. You did this lovely embossing folder proud! Simply elegant!
I missed that you were having problems with your hand. I’m sorry to hear that makes it tough when you’re a card creator! I’m hoping you get that straightened out very soon. Meanwhile your card today is pretty with the light coloring of the yellow
Such a wonderful Easter card - so fresh and clean! Sending well wishes on your hand.
So sweet, soft, subtle and very pretty, Lisa!
Take care, plenty of rest - and no cooking/cleaning/dishes - Dr. Ferguson's orders!!

This is so pretty! I am a total yellow fan! So sorry that your hand is bothering you - not good! Rest up and take care!
Very pretty, Lisa! I love the soft coloring on this beautiful embossed image. I am so sorry to hear about your hand. Hopefully you will get answers soon. Thank you for playing with The Paper Players!
This is everything an Easter card should be! Those lilies look so real, Lisa! I'm sorry to hear that you are having such pain in your hand and I pray the specialist is able to fix you up without too much difficulty or time away from what you love doing. Hugs, Darnell
What a beautiful embossing folder Lisa - the addition of soft colour really shows it off to great effect. So sorry to hear about your hand troubles - time to lay off the housework and save yourself for card making when the pain allows methinks! Hope it eases soon. Thanks for playing with my colour challenge over at The Paper Players this week!
I think your card turned out lovely, Lisa! The soft colors are just perfect. I hope you get some relief on your hand soon. Get outside and enjoy that sunshine instead. I hope it lasts. We're supposed to get temp's in the 60's today. I can't wait to get outside and enjoy it while its here.
I missed the part about your hand in your last post too Lisa, but am sending some prayers your way for relief from the pain and swelling and answers from the doctors next week! Your card is absolutely BEAUTIFUL Lisa! I love the simplicity of it, and will definitely have to check that embossing folder out...soooo pretty!! Hang in there and hope you have a great weekend!! Hugs. :0)
This is so pretty, Lisa. I love the soft shading of yellow on the daisies. Beautiful Easter card. Take care and hope the pain is less each day. xx
What a beautifully elegant card Lisa! I hope all goes well with the hand specialist. I'm praying for you!
Lisa this is so beautiful, I have been thinking about that embossing folder for a while now. You may have tipped the scale!
Oh I can empathize with the hand pain. I hoe you get lasting relief. Your card is fabulous. I love the extra bits of yellow that reminds me of escaped pollen. Lilly pollen is tough to escape.
I must have missed the post about your hand, Lisa, or else I forgot. At my age that happens a lot. ;) I hope yu can get it resolved. I know when I had thumb joint surgery a few years ago I had to get all my cards made ahead of time. Now I'm having trouble with the left one so I'll be seeing my hand specialist when I get back in Michigan.
I think the card is lovely and great for Easter.
Well I love it, Lisa! The soft yellow with all that white is just perfect for an Easter card!
So soft and beautiful, Lisa. I'm sorry that you are having problems with your hand. I hope that your appointment with the hand surgeon provides you with a good plan for resolving your issues.
Soft and pretty, the large flower e/f is beautiful and you've done it justice. Sorry to hear about your hand pain and cause, I do pray that it heals soon and you can return so we can continue to be blessed by your makes!
What a beautiful folder & I like that you just added a bit of color, Lisa! Sure hope you get the hand problem solved--no fun!
I'm sorry you are having hand troubles. I hope in the time between this gorgeous St. Paddy's Day and now, it is better. I love that EF, and I love the way you added color. It's soft and beautiful.
I hope your hand is doing better.. your card is just beautiful.. I love yellow.
