Somebunny Loves You

Hi there

I wanted to join in the 2 Sketches 4 You Challenge #22 by Laura this week, but I needed to wait to post it until Natasha was in bed because the card I have made is for her for Easter.


As you've probably all worked out by now I don't really work with pastels very often. Whenever I get out any pastel papers I always want to make the card more dramatic somehow. The little bunny brad from Smirk that I used on this card had a black outline which inspired me to dig out the black! The card actually looks better in real life because the striped paper is sparkly. I think this bunny looks a bit mad with his huge eyes. He looked a bit sad before I put them on and I know Natasha will think they are very funny so I just went with it :o)

I cut out two rectangles in PP and layered them both onto black. On the smaller rectangle I tied on the ribbon and pushed through the bunny brad. I stamped the bunny sentiment and layered this onto black. I then cut out my bunny, inked all around the edges and pop dotted him so that he looks like he is holding the message. I finally added his boggle eyes for a bit of fun :o)

Dies: Quickutz rabbit
Paper/Card: Imaginisce 'For Peeps Sake - 'Color Me Happy' & 'Spring Fling', Bazzill Swiss Dots
Stamps: Penny Black 'Some Bunny'
Accessories: Smirk 'Naughty But Nice' bradz, pink ribbon from stash

I'm going blog hopping in the World Record Inspirational Blog Hop over at Unity Stamp Company, start here if you want to join in. It takes a while to go through but it's worth it!

Enjoy the rest of your Saturday ♥
