PPA132 Color Challenge

It's time for a new Color Challenge (PPA132) at Pals Paper Arts again!  Our color combo for this challenge is the Springtime trio of Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery, and Chocolate Chip!  When I see these three colors together, I'm reminded of chocolate bunnies or Easter eggs decorated with dainty sugar flowers! 

I have no chocolate bunnies or eggs to offer today, but my Easter-themed tote looks as if it's made of chocolate!  It's embellished with sweet pink flowers to herald the arrival of Spring and/or Easter and it easily holds five to six plastic eggs or other assorted treats!  Adapt it for any occasion by simply changing out the sentiment!  I like the way it turned out!  Please let me know what you think by leaving a comment below!
