I clearly remember the days when my kids were so little that they were completely worn out after hunting Easter eggs in the early morning, often too tired to eat breakfast without at least a short nap beforehand. When I saw this precious image from Mariola Budek, I just had to color it and make an Easter card for one of my great-grands. :-D
Generally speaking, I prefer images of critters better than people because mostly critters are cuter but this darling image let me do both so it's a real win-win!
Once again, I used my new Sanjoki alcohol markers to color the image, then fussy cut it with scissors. I mounted it onto dimensional tape and layered it onto a plain card front. The sentiment was printed, cut with an Avery Elle die, and mounted on dimensional tape, also. I added tiny flowers, made by Petaloo, and called it finished. I really wanted the image to be the focus, not the embellishments, so I kept those to a minimum. Another Easter card for the stash, which is growing slowly.
Challenges:
I'm heading back to the craft room where I have another 8 images colored and waiting to be turned into Easter cards. I spent the entire morning and a good share of the afternoon coloring so that I could make some serious headway on Easter cards this evening and tomorrow morning. Check back about this time tomorrow for another post. :-D
Happy Crafting. NanaConnie
