Snow Bunny...

Hey there. :)

I took a couple days off of blogging to get caught up on some other things around here. I hope you didn't think I was gone for good (again). I'm back now, and I wanted to pop in with a quick card share.

In May, I'm going to be a bridesmaid in a wedding of a great friend who was actually a bridesmaid in my wedding a few years back. Last weekend was her bachelorette bash. The party involved going skiing and then going snowshoeing through a chocolate festival afterward. Sounds fun, right?

Unfortunately, I couldn't go, because I still was getting over my surgery and wasn't healed enough. Plus, with all my back issues I don't ski, and snowshoeing probably would have had me laid up in bed for a month! Bummer, really. I really wanted a way to participate from afar, so I decided to put together a giant care package of different gourmet chocolates and send it to her. In the box, I put a ton of different chocolate bars, hot cocoa mix, chocolate-flavored tea, and homemade "nutella."

And since the weekend not only revolved around chocolate but skiing, too, I decided to include this card.



I really don't know why, but I haven't pulled out my TCP stamps in a long while. I keep buying them (I'm such a collector!), but then I never get around to using them. That needs to change! They have some of the cutest images on the market, and this one is no exception!



heheh! That bunny is so cute!

I colored the bunny with copic markers. To make the pattern on the scarf and skis, I colored the scarf a medium-green and then used my colorless blender to make the lighter dots. Then I went back in and added some darker dots for contrast.



As a final touch, I added some liquid applique snow to his ears and some glossy accents shine to his nose. :)

Welp, that's it for today. I need to keep my momentum going and get things done around here! :)

Hope everyone's having a great week! Thanks for stopping by!
