IC171 Happy Days Plate

 

Posted by Picasa

I must be addicted! I should be in bed and not making cards. We had gone to a movie tonight for my son's b-day and got home around 9...kept checking to see if the inspiration came out yet. I was hoping because we are going to Texas tomorrow. Anyhow, I made a card.To be honest I really dont know how I made this card. My eyes were wanting to close, just a little tired is all due to my busy day. The inspiration challenge is from the Fitz and Floyd store and here is the plate I chose :http://www.fitzandfloyd.com/product/...izer+plate.do#. I thought for sure it was going to be easier than what I had planned. I started out using the CM circle cutting system on blue c/s which is the base of the card. Set aside. I cut another circle for the white, orange, and yellow. I sponged the white circle with teal and blue ink. I adhered the thin yellow circle to the white circle, now blue and cut smaller pieces from the orange circle. Adhered also.I adhered to the base of the card. So it opens like a card. I used a regular size hole punch for the circles on the blue c/s (was white) and adhered them the best I could without making a glue mess. I had a few bunny stamps but nothing that I thought would really go with the size of this card. I made my own bunnies. I used the window punch and cut to size for the hands. Added gray lines on the paws. I hand drew and cut out the face. I ears are from the small oval punch. Trimmed to look like ears. I hand drew the eyes, mouth, and colored with a pink colored pencil the nose and cheeks. I handmade the bows as well. They are colored with colored pencils too. This was really a challenge for me to do tonight. But this is my favorite challenge and I wanted to give it a try. Thanks Stef and Eggette for the idea. Have a wonderful weekend!
