Today's Sketch Challenge (SC584) & yesterday's Color Challenge (CC574) both seemed easy but turned out not to be so for me. I'm still undecided about this card, but it is what it is.
After stamping this cute bunny on the kraft w/ Memento, I used Prismacolor pencils to color him then over stamped w/ Versafine. I did the same for the Chinese coin & used a circle punch on it. The Easter letters were die cut once out of the kraft & once out of white, then stacked offset. After cutting off the requisite corner for the sketch, I added the dots w/ a border embossing folder. The largest layer really is a close clone of sahara sand, even though it looks about the same as the kraft in this pic. Oh well!
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups & Prisma colors are on my blog: The Write Stuff

I think this is so lovely, Julie, particularly how well you have used the colours and your bunny is so cute! Love the dimension with the Easter die cut, too!

Somehow, Julie, you managed ro take a bunny and give him a delightful Asain look. Your colors are stunning, and I love the embossed raised dots on the diagionel area. The coin was the pefect addition. I really like how you did the sentiment.
