First attempt at a Circle Easel Card.

Found a great guide to an Easle card from Debbie P's Place at http://debbiepsplace.blogspot.com/, following this guide I attempt to give it a go.

Using another one of my Lili of the Valley stamps, this time 'Gift Wrapped' & Birthday Circular sentiment stamp.
 
I chose to colour the bunny brown using promarkers, to compliment the Yellow-themed card. 

The reason why it is Yellow is because I came across a lovely little blog by Crafty Cardmakers and there they run blog challenges too, but having sometimes the lack of creativity they put forward a 'recipe' of what must be in / on the card to count.


The latest recipe, #43, consists of the Use Yellow as your MAIN COLOUR, Add Ribbon, Use Stitching Faux or real & Use Rhinestones/Gems.

Checklist:  Yellow as main colour      Tick
                   Used Ribbon                     Tick 
                   Faux Stitching                   Tick
                   Used Gems                       Tick

Bottom Half of card, a fineliner pen from Letraset was used for the faux stitching.

This card has been made for the Crafty Cardmakers Blog Recipe Challenge #43.
