Poster: MDO Susan

 The CAS Challenge this week was to use colored Pencils. I love that! I cheerfully stamped the Colorado Craft bunny, butterfly and bird, masked them and then...lightly added the background. That was the challenge. it made too sharp of a rectangle outside border. So I tried sponging on some Bashful Blue around the edges, but could not hide the sharp edge. Next I grabbed a Prismacolor (904) and sort of extended the leaves, dots and flowers around the edge. The coloring was last. I used a bit of Gamsol on a no.2 blending stump on the bird's tummy. The Spellbinders Hemstitch Rectangles cut out the A2 sized card front. The 2 difficulty rating was only for the problem solving!

Great card! I love the sweet scene you created. The bunny is so adorable, and you did a wonderful job coloring him.

Such a cheerful scene, and your problem‑solving paid off beautifully. The soft background blends so naturally into the extended leaves and dots, giving the panel a gentle, hand‑drawn frame that suits the images perfectly. The bunny, bird, and butterfly feel lively and connected, and the pencil work adds such warmth. The hemstitch border finishes everything with just the right touch of detail.
