Super challenge...use 3 or more of something. At first, it might be hard to tell, but there are 3 butterflies. 1 on the left and I stamped it twice more, cut them out and put the 2 together for the one on the right. There are also 3 layers on this card...though one of them is a 3 sided faux layer created w/ a black pen.
The images are from Outlines. I stamped the Bunny Tails image twice, colored one w/ Tombow markers and die cut it w/ a Spellbinders labels 21. I cut out parts of the second image and popped them up on top of the base image to add a little dimension. On the bunny tail, I added a little white puffy paint.
The greeting was die cut and I attached on top of a cut out flower stem. The grass border was stamped and colored on the larger layer and I used a black pen and ruler to draw the 3 sided frame. The finished card is 5 x 5.
Thanks so much for looking! Close ups are on my blog: The Write Stuff

Beautiful card! Lovely colouring work. I really like all the detail you've created with minimal use of embellishments - a great way to highlight watercolouring.

What a wonderful card, Julie! I love your coloring, the elegant shape the bunny is on and the grass on the BG layer, too! The puffy paint tail is really fun!
