Happy Holidays, Winter Bunny!

Happy Holidays? I know it's only September, but I've been getting an early start on ideas for a friend's cards. I wanted this one to be a more general winter card. First I used all of my white and kraft cardstock remnants to paper piece a burst. I paired it with some DCWV patterned paper and die cut/replaced a Copic colored circle. The way all the pieces fit together makes me feel like I put together a puzzle..with no reference picture!

Winter bunny was Copic colored, fussy cut, and popped up on foam adhesive. I imagine the rain dot stickers to be snow flying through the air as Winter Bunny rushes through - yes, an abstract representation of snow.

To balance out the dimension, I popped up a layered tag sentiment saturated with Versamark ink to create subtle contrast from the background.

I'm posting this one for Lawnscaping Challenge #65 again! My favorite supplies used here are Lawn Fawn, Cutter Bee scissors, Copics, and kraft accents. Lawn Fawn critters are actually what gave me the final push to start stamping and also Copic coloring, so they're important to me!

Have A Nice Day

 I had a lot of ideas for this card, but it was one that just kept morphing in the process..I knew I wanted to mask off the hexagons to underline a sentiment, but had a hard time finding one to fit. I ended up using the tiny sentiment from the My Favorite Things Vanity License Plate set. I also wanted to incorporate one of my only embossing folders as a coordinating background. 

Here you can see the embossing better. I popped the sentiment up on a layer of Dear Lizzy patterned paper and some super thin foam Adhesive to keep it CAS.

I've been slowly trying to learn how to embellish my cards..I finally found a place for one of my decorative brads from My Mind's Eye! The colors went perfectly with the ribbon and patterned paper.

My card was based on this sketch, as part of the CAS(E) this sketch challenge #44!
