Love Bunny

This is another card using a fab image from The Digi Stamp Boutique, I've kept things quite simple again - I'm really into the uncluttered look at the moment.

The image is called Boy Love Bunny, I thought my eldest son might have liked this one for his girlfriend, but he chose the Ooh La La Creations one I made called Love Letter instead - he's obviously growing up fast!  The papers are Pink Petticoat and I have applied a coat of 3D Crystal Lacquer to all of the hearts.  Full details of everything I have used are listed below.

I did decorate the inside of the card but couldn't get a decent photo.

Watering the Flowers

Good morning, it's time for another Willow Sketchie Challenge and this is the card I have made following Claire's great sketch:

I have used the gorgeous image Busy in the garden - available from the Willow Designs Store and coloured her with a combination of ProMarkers and FlexMarkers.   The papers are Echo Park - Springtime and I used some of the flowers to make the embellishments using my Epiphany Shape Studio.  The sentiment has been cut down from a sentiment ticket from The Crafty Pad.

As usual I have decorated the inside of my card:

This is Claire's sketch:

and she has chosen the theme:  Use 3 different papers.
