it took me a week . . .

to sit with this image before coming up with a layout that would work with the ideas I had floating in my head... I wanted to make a card for a dear friend who has just not bounced back from surgery as quickly as expected. I had all the pieces sitting on my study table for days but a suitable layout was eluding me.

This morning I spent a few minutes on SCS looking through various sketches to see if that would help... eureka! I found one that would work perfectly: SC377 Quick! Off I went to my craft desk to put the pieces together - this is the final result.

This will be my entry for the current CDAC progressive challenge, Baskets or Bunnies? The image is Mr. Bunny from Spectacular Printable.
I altered the image slightly, replacing the basket of eggs with a medic bag and coloured him to look like a professional.
The sentiment was computer generated.

Paper: BasicGrey (crude), PatternPaper (ambrosia), Neenah
Accessories: copics

I'm glad that my ideas came together this morning. The card is now finally ready for him and hopefully he gets it in a timely manner.
