bunny fairy in the garden

here is one last piece of inspiration for you for the gecko galz customer challenge going all this month on the blog: "fairy garden."  this creation i am sharing with you today is a digitally made card.

supplies: gecko galz "zen garden" paper pack; gecko galz "victorian spring" icons; gecko galz "easter parade" icons; gecko galz "holiday" icons; my computer and photoshop!  

instructions: i started by sizing a paper sheet form the zen garden set to 4x5.  i selected the items i wanted from each of the digital sets -- a bunny from the easter parade icons, a flower from the victorian spring icons, and a butterfly from the holiday icons set.  working in photoshop i sized and arranged everything to my satisfaction and voila! a card ready to print.  i'll likely add a sentiment of some sort and use it for easter.
