Hello
Welcome to the April Path of Positivity Challenge.
Our challenge is always Anything Goes with an optional theme.
This month's option is to design a project that is inspired by literature.
Honours and Prizes include:
- $6 worth of images from Scribbles Designs, for a person chosen in a random draw based on all qualifying entrants.
- A badge for the following honours: Top Pick, Voter's Choice, Most Inspirational, Random Winner, DT Delight.
Where to start with literature?
I love a good book whether it be fact or fictional and my house is a 'little bit' brimming over with them. For my first DT project I've gone with my love of rabbits in literature, mainly because I came across a lovely stamp that I've had for at least a couple of years and not yet used..
As a child I would read about the naughty (and now politically incorrect) Br'er Rabbit, Peter Rabbit, the Flopsy Bunnies and Benjamin Bunny from the Beatrix Potter stories , the White Rabbit and March Hare in Alice in Wonderland and, in my teens, Hazel and Fiver and their families in Watership Down.
I love this quirky 'Bunny' stamp by Melina Dahl.
I stamped her onto card that was smooshed in Distress Oxide inks. Her collar was also stamped onto smooth white card and coloured with Copics so that it could be decoupaged. I used Posca pen to add white to the ears and eyes.
The background is a monoprint using Oxide inks on an acrylic block spritzed with water and stamped onto card. I added some background stamping and plenty paint splatters. The border and sentiment are part of the stamp set - I stamped the scalloped border onto a gelli print, fussy cut it and added to the edges of the card. I love the big 'Smile' sentiment!
That's all for now.
We would love to see your creations!
