KLSNS Challenge #20

I had every intention of posting something more during the week, but I've been crazy busy and only got as far as coloring a few images!  Both of my girls are on DI teams and we have had many more practices added in since the competition is at the end of the month.  Speaking of which, I need to make a gummy worm costume and it has me stumped (not to mention the fact that I have no idea how to sew a costume) I know exactly how I want it to look ~ getting it to actually look that way is a completely different story!   Just another thing to add to the ever growing list of things to get done  unfortunately this one is high priority and needs to get done soon! 

This week our challenge over at KLSNS was hosted by Joanna and she asked us to use buttons on our project.  I got my DT package in the mail early this week, so instead of using the image I had planned on, I just had to break out one of the new stamps - Sweet November Baby Bunny with Daffodil from CC Designs and use it for this challenge.

I chose some of the papers from Basic Grey's Sugar Rush stack because I thought they had a nice spring feel to them.  The image was colored in with my copics and then masked so I could stipple the sky background and then the grass border was attached.  The sky looked a little bare so I added a few butterflies punched with some of the same DP and then covered in stickles.  I did a bit of sewing on a few of the panels and then added a sentment from the CC Designs Spring Kit

Please join us this week, we'd love to see what you do with your buttons!  This week the top three will win a blinkie for their blog.   

Take a peek at the creations the rest of the DT has and be sure to leave them some love as well!
