This will have to be a quick post as I'm about to set off for the Midlands. I'm off to see various family members. My brother has just been taken into a hospice, his wife is just leaving hospital after breaking her arm in a fall, my other brother has just had a second hip replacement, his wife is receiving chemo following cancer surgery and I'm due for an arthroscopy next month! What a jolly family!
This card is for the challenge at CAS MIX Up.
Both the bunnies and the circle were partially die cut.. as in fact was the front panel... as I have an American stitched die from SSS which doesn't fit the front of a British card cut from a sheet of A4. I have to cut the die from both ends in order to stretch the die cut to fit the base.
The bunnies were just shaded gently with a little grey Promarker and the tails given a dab of Fun Flock.
The background was just a watercolour wash sky!
Sorry it's so brief but I must be off!
This is adorable, Chrissie! Love this bunny pair gazing at the sky and your partial die cutting! Thanks so much for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up! I hope you find some time for fun and relaxation on your trip. Sometimes it seems like stuff comes in bunches!
ReplyDeleteAdorable card Chrissie, thoughts are with you and your family, take care xxx
ReplyDeleteOh Chrissie, that is a lot to deal with. Hope you have a good trip and enjoy spending time with your family.
ReplyDeleteYour card is just lovely - from the beautifully inked sky, to those cute cuddling bunnies! Partially cut dies are a closed book to me so I'm off to do some homework! Vicky x
