I've had this Penny Black Easter Bonnet stamped image in my stash for a long time and with Easter just around the corner, I figured it was time to color it and make a card with it. I used Copics and glaze pens to color the image and mounted it on a piece of bright yellow cardstock. I found a strip of designer paper that seemed to match the soft coral cardstock and found another strip of dark purple cardstock that coordinated with the big bow around her neck, so I embossed that with a SU! dots ef and punched the end with a hexagon punch to give it a fishtail look. The sentiment is a pre-printed one from Simon Says Stamp and I had a narrow strip of the yellow cardstock, so I glued it behind the sentiment just for fun.
I'm sharing this with
A/G *optional "Easter"
the Allsorts Challenge #770 - Spring or A/G
Thanks for the visit and as always, I wish you the best possible day.
