Herbert The Hare

Morning -another new month and hope everyone is safe and well and not too bored in isolation.
My DT card today is for the Bunnies/Bears/Rabbits challenge at Pearly Sparkles and as I couldn't find my rabbit stamp I hope Herbert The Hare from Stampotique is okay instead.
Now this image is the second one I coloured with pencils (borrowed from Grandaughters who we are missing dreadfully!) the die-cut frames are from Sizzix -the strip of coloured paper was an oddment on my desk and the background was made using all scraps of co-ordinating papers glued onto a piece of card.

Love and Hope

Thank you for all your lovely comments on my previous post for my daughters painting and she would like to thank you all.
My card today was inspired by the Tracy Evans live on FB.The background was brayered with a Decoart acrylics(neglected stash) which I went slightly heavy handed on.
Then brayered pale grey acrylic onto a TH stencil then put onto background reverse side down.
Homemade texture paste through the same stencil
I stamped with a grunge stamp from Studiolight once onto the background,then onto more painted card and a bookpage,then layered the hearts and words,with thread added under the hearts,added a can ring pull and splatters to finish.
