Today’s Sketch Challenge (SC584) & yesterday’s Color Challenge (CC574) both seemed easy but turned out not to be so for me. I’m still undecided about this card, but it is what it is.

I used an old stamp from Hero Arts I know had been retired by them a long while ago, but I found Peddler’s Pack is apparently selling them..so I guess you learn something every day. After stamping this cute bunny on the kraft w/ Memento, I used Prismacolor pencils to color him then over stamped w/ Versafine. I did the same for the Chinese coin & used a circle punch on it. The Easter letters were die cut once out of the kraft & once out of white, then stacked offset. After cutting off the requisite corner for the sketch, I added the dots w/ a border embossing folder. The largest layer really is a close clone of sahara sand, even though it looks about the same as the kraft in this pic. Oh well!

Here are the pencil colors I used. If you can’t read them, they are: 
Blender, White, Pale Vermillion, Salmon Pink, Lt. Peach, Peach, Ginger Root, Beige, French Gray 50%, French Gray 70%.

For Lydia’s Challenge..the final Dare to Get Dirty Challenge for 2015. The details are HERE, but you’ll need to be a Fan Club member…it’s easy, just click to find out how.

I’ve had the Brushos water color bg (& a couple more) finished ever since I signed up for Lydia’s challenge, but then I was stumped about what to do with it. I’m not entirely sure I did the bg right, but it is what it is, lol. I guess it’s my interpretation of the water color galaxy tech (had to google it!). 

Lots of ideas came to mind, but this is nothing like what I first envisioned. I couldn’t find a moon image like I wanted, so I drew one, colored it w/ Copics then stamped a few images on top w/ the cantaloupe ink and cut it out. I typed the quote, printed it then used a star die to cut it. 

The bg was stamped around the edges w/ one of my oldest & best loved stamps…Starry Night by ANM, & white embossed. After a few die cut layers, I added my star & moon & some little stars & crystals. While not what I started to make, it’s growing on me 🙂 These are the Copics I used to color the moon.
