OWH Bunny Hop!

Welcome to my little hop stop on the Operation Write Home Bunny Blog Hop! If you arrived here from Amy's blog  - This Busy Girl, you're hopping in the right direction!  If you popped in from another rabbit-hole, and want to start from the beginning, which is a very good place to start, hop back here to OWH Stars and Stamps blog.

Instead of creating a card as my original intention, I decided to create a hanging ornament instead - from top to bottom it measures 21 centimetres (not including the hanging ribbon). It uses the Happy Easter Bunny image from the Michelle Perkett Studio....


Ingredients: Heart WireForm; Green Satin Ribbon; Glitter Gel Pens; Aquash WaterPen; Markers - Marvy Le Plume; Assorted brads; Rhinestones, Pearl - Kaisercraft; Fabric Flowers;Vintage Velvet Flower

I left the rabbit uncoloured - I wanted her white!  I coloured the flowers and dress with markers, then added glitter pen with a water brush to intensify the colours.  I added rhinestones and a pearl to the flowers in her hair, and her shoes.  I fussy cut her from the image background.  She sat aside, while I wrapped the heart with ribbon, and added a hanging ribbon.  I fixed assorted flowers with brands and secured them to the heart.  I fixed fine silver wire to the bunny, and secured to the heart, hiding the wire amidst the flowers, so she appears to be dancing through the flowers.

I decided to offer a spring themed Blog Candy for the Bunny Hop participants who leave me a comment...
