Hush Little Bunny

Good morning everyone and Happy Friday!

It's Alphabet Challenge time and today's letter is D for Decoupage...

For my card I started with the sweet Hush Little Bunny Gorjuss Mini Decoupage. It was on sale at Joann's for $1.49 so I couldn't pass it up! :) I changed it a little by adding a die cut oval frame around the image and distressed the edges. The background was embossed with a CB folder, I used a Hot Off the Press die for the doily and a Tim Holtz die for the stitched rectangle. Punched out a few flowers, added the pearls and sequins and it's done!

It's Alphabet Challenge time and today's letter is...V for Violet!

For my DT card I used another image out of the Calendar Critters set from Taylored Expressions. It's colored with Copics, I used a Avery Elle die for the stitched rectangle and a Taylored Expressions die for the stitched scalloped frame. I cut the sentiment with a Little Yellow Bicycle die and a Avery Elle die. 

This card was very fun and easy to make but hard to photograph!! I'm not sure what happened, I took several photos and each time the dog looks a bit out-of-focus and everything else looks fine. Oh well... he's still a little cutie anyway! :)
