Soft Pencil Thursday Easter Card!

Hello. Yes, "Soft Pencil Thursday" is back here on "Inspired by Purple", at least for the month of April anyways. I will continue to use their designs and post them however even after my month as guest designer of the month is over. The image that we were requested to use this week is an Easter image that is soooooooooooo cute called "Painting Eggs w/ Michu & Ratiny". Michu has some oh so cute bunny ears on, and Ratiny seems to have fallen into a cracked egg. The challenge was open to whatever we wanted to make, so I challenged myself to get out an embellishment that I haven't used in quite a long time, ribbon. So, here is what I came up with:


Is that the cutest image, or what? I water colored it with some Stampin Up ink refills and a blender pen, cut it out with a rectangular Nestibility, and mounted it on a scalloped rectangle nestibility. I popped up each layer with a thin foam dimensional, and also popped up our two characters as well. The bunny border was made with a Martha Stewart Bunny border punch. The sentiment was typed out in Microsoft Word and printed, punched out with my SU Word Window Punch, and mounted on a piece of CS punched out with my SU Modern Label Punch. Some faux pink pearls from Michael's, and some Bazzil 1/4" ribbon to finish it off.

Yes, I am still working on my blog sidebar, and my Zibbet store is open, however no cards are listed in it for sale yet. I will post something on here to let you all know when it is officially open for business.

Until next time..............Blessings, Lisa
