Country View Crafts Challenges - Spring and/or Easter

Happy Spring.  As I type this there is hope of warmer days and lighter evenings.  I am keeping everything crossed!

The theme over at Country View Challenges is Spring and/or Easter.  With Easter fast approaching I decided to make an Easter card.

I started by die cutting a Tim Holtz stitched circle and rabbit.  I don't yet have the new Cotton Tail but it is certainly next on the list!  I cut them using white card and then coloured them using Distress Oxides.  I love colouring shapes this way - I cam alter the colour until I'm happy.

The foil was embossed using a Tim Holtz Texture folder.  Doesn't it look amazing!

I also coloured seam binding using Distress Oxides.  Again, I love colouring seam binding this way as it always co-ordinates with my project.

Once I was happy, I layered everything onto my card.

Thanks for joining me today.  Make sure you pop over to the Country View Crafts Challenge blog and see the inspiration from the other members of the design team.  I hope that I have encouraged you to join in with the challenge.  Don't forget that if you link a project over at the Challenge blog you may be in with a chance of winning a gift voucher to spend in the shop.

Happy Crafting!
