A week off work... YAY!
Albeit I spent most of it cleaning, typical eh. However, I did manage to get one card done for my husbands birthday and another one as a working progress.
Obviously you all recognise this bunny from Colorado Craft Company and as my regular followers know my husbands birthday is on the 31st October and I always like to add a nod to Halloween.
In this case the colours are muted and the balloon is a nice pumpkin orange. I added the sentiment and a bit of shading to ground him, its pretty basic but its been so long I decided to ease myself into crafting by doing what I love the most... simple no-line colouring.
