Happy Easter

Today I just felt like colouring up this cute CC Design image.
I don't think I have inked her up before.
I tried to match my Copic markers to the papers.
I usually just colour an image and then find my papers. I have a lot of pattern paper so it usually isn't a problem finding matching papers.















Here is a close up of the image I coloured.
She is so  cute. I think her stockings look like a decorated egg :)
The paper around the image is just white cardstock that I coloured dark brown with my marker.
I was to lazy to walk downstairs for the 100th time to get some brown paper, lol.





















And now for the money shot ;)
I wanted to add tiny eggs instead of the brown brads. But that was hard to do as I didn't have any ;)

















Here is the inside of the card.
Again I used left over paper from the front of the card for the inside. Its the best way to use up scraps of paper.

















Again here is the finished card.
As much as I like this card, I am drawn more to the brighter colours.
These papers look a bit washed out to me....
















Here is the sketch I followed.
I have a Sketch board on my Pinterest page. Once I have done the sketch on my board I am also pinning the finished card. 





















Onto My Day:
Woke up to snow.
Yup, it was snowing pretty hard. Big fluffy white flakes of snow.
My girls only searched for eggs outside once in their lives, and that was over 12 yrs ago.
















Same day as yesterday. Wayne playing video games and me telling him what to do and where to go, lol. As I coloured and made some cards.

On a sad note, tonight is the last episode of the Walking Dead for season 3 :(

I hope you all had a great Easter weekend with family and friends.
Also a creative Sunday :)

  8. What a great card, she is adorable! I use to be too lazy to walk downstairs. Now I'm too lazy to walk UPSTAIRS. Lol! Love the eggs, I wonder how she did those? We always do the egg hunt inside, but the hunt at my mom and dad's was outside... That is way too much snow my friend. You need to come down south for a bit ;)

  14. Clearly, the card is waaaaay cuter than the snow!

    We actually had a nice Easter day most of the day. We usually can't hide eggs outside here either, but probably could have this year if we would have known it was going to be nice. The weather person was wrong and predicted cold & rain all day.
