3 Days Later.........


Jennie (aka The Wife) set us a challenge over on MSE to make an Easter card or one featuring spring colours of yellow and green. I chose to go the Easter route. Thank you for setting the challenge Jennie. My entry's a bit more wishy washy  Pastel than I expected, even in 'real' life I should have used a stronger yellow. The image is 'Warren' part of a set from Craftwork cards. I coloured him with a mixture of Copics and chalk. The paper is PP daffodil gingham and the back of co-ordinations whitewash run through the cuttlebug with a swiss dots folder. The flowers, gems and ribbon are from my stash and I made my own sentiment cut with SU scalloped oval punch.


Apologies for the strange photo at the top - I tried to put a fuzzy edge to it and ended up wiping all the outside edge instead! and had no more time to spend on it.
PS Just realised I could post the 'unmessed with' photo as well ...so I did!
I'd like to enter the following challenges:
MSE Easter or Yellow & Green
stampingvacation.blogspot.com/ Pick 3 (hope this means AT LEAST 3 ‘cos I’ve got 4!) Circle, dry embossing, corner punch and a home made sentiment
