I enjoyed doing Whimsy's Stamp's digital image 'Think Spring' so much back in February, I decided to add it to the cards I'm preparing for a vendor craft sell this weekend. This time I toned it down a bit to soft yellow, green and tans.
I just love the way designer Crissy Armstrong drew the sweetest face on the one bunny who is turned around, almost like he knows he is about to be in trouble.
After coloring with Copic markers I used a dark green mat that would just show on the top and bottom. I cut a Tan patterned fish tail piece and a light green large pointed doily to mount. As I began to lay this one out, I realized the dark green was also needed behind the yellow background piece before adding to the card base.
Do You Do This? ~ Do you build your card on the card base or away and then add to the card base?
I usually have mine pretty much to the completion point before adding to the card base. It just seems to work better for me and prevent trashing a lot of work. I'd love to hear the steps of your work flow.
I did wait till everything was mounted on the card before I added the organza ribbon and then the 'final touch' on these cute bunny butts! One mini clear flat-back on each derriere.
Thanks for hopping over to see today's card. Please make note~~ THIS Sunday, March 31st, I'll be in the Unity GIU 1st Quarter Blog Hop. Be sure to stop in and comment for a chance to win!
Serving a Risen Savior,
