Happy Hares and Glow Flowers

I have a card to share using some of my Lavinia Stamps today and I tried out a "new to me" technique too :)

I created the scene using Glow Flowers, Pipin and Whimsical Hares stamps.

I coloured the grass with Copics and used them to also colour the flowers.  Then I used distress oxides to blend around the edges of the card.

I have seen lots of Eclipse cards that I have loved but I have never tried one before.  I decided to be brave and give it a go :) 

It wasn't hard but I wasn't happy with how it looked originally. I think it was just the wrong kind of design/background to attempt it probably.  So I was really annoyed at having tried it on this piece which I had really liked.  But I saved it (in my opinion anyway) by writing on the letters with a gel pen.  

I actually love the look of it now :)

I used the Happy die by Whimsy Stamps.
