Easter Bonnet.....



What wouldn't you do to get your hands on a hat like this?!!! Very Ascot Ladies Day don't you think? As we are coming up to Easter I thought that I would use this cut as an Easter Bonnet. I cut it from 2 shades of Bazzill, adhered them together and added detail with a dressmaker's wheel. I used polka dot ribbon and a single layered flower as adornment. I layered 3 strips of paper from Papermania's Rose Garden collection, punching the edges of the top & bottom strip, then wrapping polka dot ribbon around the remaining join. This panel was then adhered with foam pads over a white panel matted onto aqua & pink card. I adhered the hat with foam pads and added layered flowers and pearl swirls. I cut the sentiment from pink & aqua glitter paper and adhered it flat to the card front. I made a simple panel and sentiment for the inside of the card & finished it with more flowers.
Carts used:
Hat- Forever Young
'Easter Bonnet'- Lyrical Letters (Loopy Lou font)
'A lovely Easter to you'- Wild Card
