It was Choccy’s turn to choose something for us to work with this week and she chose Ester the Easter Bunny from Reece’s Scrap Pieces. This fun kit has so many elements in it to play with, 10 papers, 3 coloured clip art and 3 digi stamps.
For the 1st time ever I have created a completely digital card. I use a programme called Xara which is a desk top publishing package. I have used it for many years and it is fabulous for the manipulation of digi images but you can also use it to create digital scrapbook pages and I thought I would have a play and make a digital card.

I created a base white layer and to this added my main backing paper. Then the bright pink side section. The main image has been layered onto another white square, just like matting and layering on a real card. The ‘ribbon’ of bunnies was created by cropping down the sheet which has a border of bunnies and stretching it slightly to fit. The eggs were added in the top corner and rotated slightly at an angle.

The digi sentiment is a freebie from Tracey at Brossart Addiction. She is very generous and has some lovely sentiments. When I popped it on the spotty paper one of the dots was right in the middle of the T and looked funny so I coloured it in and it looks much better. Don’t you just love how versatile digis are?

I am very pleased with my 1st attempt at a digi card. This pack has got so many items you can use and I hope I have inspired you to  ‘Use A Digi’

For my card this week I have used an image by Jess at Floppy Latte Designs called Life Is Sweet. It certainly is very yummy judging by this gorgeous ice cream sundae image.

The base card has been covered with a text paper with birthday words and phrases from a Dovecraft paper pack. The image has been coloured with Promarkers and I added some Crystal Effects to the cherry and chocolate sauce to make them look shiny. I used a fine tip to draw a grid on the table to look like a tablecloth. The sentiment on the image is a rub on from Sizzix.

The circle sentiment is a freebie from Brossart Addiction and I have coloured it in and added some gold Stickles to the scalloped edge.

Materials Used in this card are as follows:-
Card Size – A5
Sentiment – Brossart Addiction & Sizzix
Paper – Birthday paper pack by Dovecraft
Embellishments – Crystal Effects & Stickles gitter glue
Tools – scissors, 3d foam, Promarkers
