Hoppy Birthday

Good Morning! Welcome to 2013! Where did 2012 go?!

 

Well, a new year is here and the first of my 2013 creations to share. This is just a quick birthday card for a friend of mine whose birthday is at the end of the week - I have 3 Birthday's this week! including my brother's which is today (I'll share his card later this week).

 

So I wanted to keep the design fresh and light hearted after all the dark colours that are associated with Christmas as I came up with this:

The images are from Bugaboo and this quirky little rabbit made me smile as soon as I saw him. I coloured the image with promarkers and but some glossy accents on the nose to make them shiny. I mounted the quartet onto plain blue card and then used up some scraps of design papers in to create a very simple and clean layout. I added a removable tag for some interest and a couple of white pips to finish.

 

I'm really pleased with how this card worked out in the end as I wasn't sure what I was going to create when I started colouring the images.

 

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

The Pink Elephant - Anything Goes

Fussy and Fancy - Furry Friends

Stampin' for the weekend - Anything Goes

 

Until next time, happy crafting!
