Everyone is talking about March Madness in the midst of the basketball playoffs, but since I rarely follow basketball, I wanted to share a card celebrating simple Spring Madness! Maybe this will hurry it along and get this crazy winter behind us. :-D
This darling bunny is an image drawn by Mariola Budek (I love, love LOVE her images), and I think it's a perfect reflection of how every bunny must feel when spring makes the clover grow and the sky is blue beyond all imagination. I colored the image with some of my new markers by Sanjoki, a brand I'm trying out for comparative purposes with both ProMarkers and Copics. So far, I find them to be comparable in everything but price since the Sanjokis are far more affordable. I have a set of 120 so finding the exact color I want for blending purposes isn't a problem. I'm still adjusting to the brush tips because they seem to be a bit more flexible than Copics and, since I've been a dedicated ProMarker user for nearly a decade now, I need to hone my skills when it comes to brush tips anyway.
Once colored, I cut the image with a Gina Marie die, then layered it onto my card front. I printed and fussy cut the sentiment, added it to the top of the image and called it finished! :-D I think it's cute enough to use for an Easter card. What do you think?

I'm going to have to check out those markers! Copics are so expensive so it'd be nice to find something a little cheaper.
I Love, Love, LOVE your card Connie! Oh my goodness - I'm going to feel just like this little guy if spring ever gets here - which I'm sure it will at some point. Great coloring and a super great card!
