Fusion Card Challenge - 'Cloth Bunnies'

 

It's the last day of March, and time for the latest Fusion Card Challenge - 'Cloth Bunnies'. I'm loving the soft, stitched bunnies and the Spring-y feel of the photograph, but the sketch is pretty lovely too. Which will you choose - the sketch, the photo or both as your inspiration?

As is my habit, I've taken cues from both the photo and the sketch. I've focused on the indigo, plaid and stripe patterns, and taken the  liberty of rotating the sketch and adding Berry Sorbet as my accent color on the larger bunny die vs. using more organic/neutral hues, as in the photo. A crisp sentiment and cute little bow finish off this clean and simple 5.5" square card.

The DT has created LOTS of lovelies, so be sure to hop on over and join the party! When playing along you may use the sketch OR the photo as you jumping off point. OR, if you are feeling super duper clever, you can fuse 'em together.

Fusion Card Challenge - 'Bookshelf'

Happy Thursday, and welcome to the latest Fusion Card Challenge - 'Bookshelf'. Just take a peek at that wonderfully staged vignette - with all of it's beautifully placed books, greenery and art!! So...which will you choose - the sketch, the photo or both as your inspiration?

As is my habit, I've taken cues from both the photo and the sketch. I've focused on just one shelf, with a few books, globe and a pretty plant. Lots of white space, a crisp sentiment, a bit of ink blending and a snippet of twine finish off this clean and simple A2 card.

The DT has created LOTS of lovelies, so be sure to hop on over and join the party! When playing along you may use the sketch OR the photo as you jumping off point. OR, if you are feeling super duper clever, you can fuse 'em together.
