Unique Shaped Deco/Created By hand Challenge

A few weeks back Created By Hand had a challenge using this cute bunny template. I have been super busy lately so I never had the chance to create anything, but I really really wanted to *lol* So I kept the template until I got a chance to work on something. Then I realized I had an exchange in Altered Art Bliss for 'odd shaped' decos.... THIS WAS PERFECT! So I created the background paper using a crayon batik tutorial (one of my favorites tutorials) and cut it out using the bunny template.

I then used the Picasso quote stamp I have by inkadinkado 'Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.' Its stamped in black dye based ink.

I drew out flourish's with a black sharpee, because I dont have any flourish stamps just yet *lol*. I used my white gelly roll pen to add white accents to the flourishs in various places.

I added a bow tie and purple gem as well as a black button for the eye. The bunny was then stampled together in a book format by the tail with about 6-8 blank bunnies inside for decoing.

I really really enjoyed creating this! I hope everyone has a wonderful Easter!
