Extra long Easter

 

The idea  for  this  extra long  card  came  to me  whilst lying in  bed (don't  all  the  best ideas  ?) . It  was  a mammoth  task in  the end  but  I  really  enjoyed  the  die  cutting  and  matching  the colours  . I  am  still  not  sure of  who  to  give it  to  and  may  just  keep it  to  adorn our mantelpiece . I  began  by  cutting  three  12 inch  strips of  card  with  depth of  3 inches  . I  designed  a background of  flowers on  each  section  using  flowers  and  colours  from  Craft  Artist   . I  die  cut  Happy  Easter  to  add  to  each  section  . I die   cut  5 eggs ,covered  three  with  glitter  film and  two  were  dry  embossed  with  a  texture  folder  looking like  chocolate  on  an  egg  . I  added  bows  to  each of these  colouring  them  with  Promarkers  . The  rabbits  were  cut  with  a  sizzix thinlits die  that  I have had  for years . I  found  the  chickens  as a freebie on line  , I  added  die  cut  flowers  to  each  egg coordinating  the  colours using PMs   and  finishing  with  liquid pearls  and  stickles  /

I  really  enjoyed making  this  card  and hope  the  recipient  will like it  ,

I  would like  to  enter this  card into  the  following  challenges  -----------
