A pink girly layout and an Easter bunny or three

ARTASTIC

Here is my entry for this month's Artastic challenge. A portrait photo and the following painting are the criteria:

March inspiration comes to you from Australian portrait artist Julia Sattout.

Pretty little thing isn't she?

I have had a bit of fun with squares with this layout. You can see my painted squares underneath and the punched squares scattered around that have a felt damask pattern on the paper. I really had some fun with this one.





















Now for the Easter bunny. I've made these little bunnies with heart punches. If you'd like to get your hands on one join in with Amanda Taylor's swap theme for March, which is Easter, here.
