IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE EASTER - SPRING EXTRAVAGANZA BLOG HOP ~
PLEASE LOOK ONE BLOG ENTRY DOWN**
Do you feel spring in the air? I'm still waiting :o) But really looking forward to it.
I have started Nordic Walking and have lost 1/3 of my body weight between that, exercise and eating properly for Diabetes. I can hardly wait to walk in the sunshine and not in the rain and be able to get out everyday and not have to wait for snow to melt *grin*!

Here is the card I have made for the Challenge:
I have seen this sweet sweet Tilda all over blog world this past couple of weeks. Everyone is so in love with her. I hope I have done her justice.
I was waiting and waiting for a sunny day to take my pictures - ran out of days and had to take them on a very dark and rainy day. Please accept my apology for them being so dark :o(
My images are:
Hoppy Easter Collection 2010 ~ Bunny Background # 646 and 'Happy Easter' # 715
Butterfly Dreams Collection 2011 ~ Tilda with Hanging Rabbit # 252
Here is a picture a bit closer of the Bunny Background:
I found the scene wasn't quite big enough for what I wanted so I used my Copic Multiliner Pen
0.3 and drew more ground, tall grass and flowers and clouds as well as little dots of shadow so it matched the image I stamped.
Here is Tilda with her little friend:
If you look closely you can just detect the Crystal Lacquer on the bunny's nose :o)
I have also put the same Lacquer liberally onto her boots - couldn't for the life of me get a good picture of it - but have decided to show you a rather bad one - at least you can see the shiny yellow rubber boots!
I also made a 5 loop bow out of some terrific ribbon - here is a picture of it:
I made this with my Bow-Easy of course :o)
Here is a picture of the inside left of the card:
Of course the right inside :
Recipe will follow!
