BOYS OR GIRLS...DT

 Hello everyone,

A BIG project to share today for my design team post for As You Like It  and the theme is..

Boys or Girls..

I LOVE making girly, classy, elegant cards for a female, but, I LOVE making grunge and steampunky and mechanical for the guys..

This time, I went cute, as our sponsor is .. Last Minute Manda  with their adorable cute and fun images..

Here we go...

another cardboard box opened up and cut in half...time to paint.

I used my chalk paints, they cover well and dry fast..

Then white paint and this sponge thing and pounced the paint on..

makes neat foam..

Did the same in the sky bit a lot lighter and made clouds..

Printed and fussy cut loads of bunnies different sizes, this is some of them..

I did colour first sometimes,

 but like to fussy cut while sitting down so coloured lots after that..

I needed rocks, so cloud dies it was using dark grey card stock..

Then screwed it up..

I have rocks..

Die cutting was huge part of this project..

Birds, waves and a dolphin..

A lighthouse and more rocks..

Then all the bunnies came out to play...

Putting the bunnies and die cuts into place and gluing down..

Holly was there helping..

Getting there..

Some bunnies were coloured around the edges with grey markers, and some with brown, just for different looks as they are the same bunnies..so to speak..

They were printed different sizes so they look like mum and kids..or big brother.

They look very happy there..

This little cutie was playing in the rock pools and found a starfish, and Stanley was there..

Building a sand castle..

Stanley..

So there it is wide open..

Then decided to do a cover or the other side..

Oh, bummer.. 

Beach a day at the???

Never mind when it is folded you don't see it like that..

All the die cut boats had different coloured sails and were racing across the bay..

I glued the crab on the letter C and it made it look like a G..

All folded up..

The back..

Closed up..

Took the clip off and it does not stay closed but that's okay..

All ready to open for reveal..

What a great fun time I had making this..

1 digi stamp set for the prize..
