As
my lord husband and I are still away exploring foreign lands, I have
had to inscribe this journal entry and send it back via raven to the
Guild Hall. Hopefully it makes it safety so that my fellow crafty
travellers may read it. We have continued to explore the Peeled Paint
Port, basking in the coastal sun. I do not miss the mounds of snow that I
know are still covering the Guild Hall. We were invited today to
celebrate the Spring Festival of Eggs in the village of Rabbotus. The
furry inhabitants had a rousing egg hunt, dancing and singing, and games
for the children. There was an egg painting competition which, given my
crafty skills, I couldn’t help but enter.
This Easter card was created for the Just Some Lines reminder
about our Bunnies & Chicks challenge that is happening right now. You can use the freebie provided, or your own Just Some Lines bunnies
and chicks and enter to win some digis from the Just Some Lines shop.
I started this card by colouring the “Easter Bunny with a Basket”
image using Distress Markers and my ever present Hydra brush. I cut the
shape for the sentiment using the Art Philosophy cartridge, then
stamped it with the coordinating stamp from Close to My Heart in green
and added a sentiment from another Close to My Heart set. I also cut the
pink corner pieces using the Art Philosophy cartridge and embossed them
with my Cuttlebug. You obviously can’t tell in the picture, but the
egg background paper is textured; the solid coloured eggs are made of
fuzzy velvety material, earning me +193 fuzzatious exp points. To finish
the front off, I added some fabric flowers I picked up at the Everything-For-One-Brass-Coin stand at the Market Square.
On the envelope I stamped some flowers using the same colour scheme as the card front to make everything all matchy-match.

I blew the bunnies away with my entry in the egg painting contest and
ended up winning a hefty prize. We thanked the villagers of Rabbotus for
their hospitality and promised to visit again soon. It was now time to
start our journey back home to the Guild Hall. I miss my direwolf,
Lycan, and can’t wait to snuffle his fuzzy face :)
