Hoppy.........
For about 6 years I've dealt with anxiety and panic attacks, and physical symptoms of stress... I'm preparing to teach a health class for the next 4 weeks, and the stress of that manifested itself today in nerve pain through my hand and forearm. Great! It's happened before, but it's still unsettling... Best way to get through it is to do something calming... so my de-stress activity was to play some challenges. That usually works! Sooooooo.......
This card is for:
Our Creative Corner - Spring card
Everybody-ArtChallenge - Easter card
Peachy Keen Stamps - sketch challenge
Colour Create Challenge - pastels and Easter card
Now I'm not normally an Easter Bunny card person. Spring Bunny, yes... but... I wanted to be able to submit this card to the Heartfelt Creations gallery as well, and I don't have a "Happy Spring" stamp from them, so in the interest of the sketch and the sentiment that turned out to be the right size... sigh...
Bathing Bunny is the name of this image - I used to collect rabbits growing up (figurines, stuffed, etc.) and I love them still. I watercolored my image, and added a few popped leaves, then cut around the image with a Coluzzle template, skipping the areas I wanted to leave outside the circle. My card is 4-1/4" x 6", folded the long way, and I cut the scalloped edge with a corner rounder (corner guide removed).
Thanks for stopping by!
You have colored this darling image so perfectly! I LOVE this card!! Glad you were able to de-stress by creating this card. Hope your panic behaves, I suffer from them too. Ugh!! Thanks for joining us at Peachy Keen and good luck!
ReplyDeleteSo beautifully colored, Dini!! I love the popped up leaves too. I hope you make it through the stress. Last time I let it overwhelm me, I ended up with Shingles. Very painful. I hope you can find a way to make it go away!!
ReplyDeleteYour coloring is so beautiful! All of your cards are a work of art. The bunny looks like it is praying. So I just ordered the stamp (thanks to you) to use in making "praying for you" cards. And I will be praying for you to
ReplyDeleterest in His arms and know, all is well. You are doing a wonderful work in the Lord. He carries your burdens. Blessings, Kathy
