A Birthday Card for Make the Day Special Stamp Store March Challenge

Hello Friends!
 
Long time no see! Life has been busy outside of the blog world but I can't resist joining in the March colour challenge at Make The Day Special Stamp Store. I believe I should just make it in time before it closes for entry. This month's challenge is to pick a minimum of 3 colours from any of the 3 options below. I have picked the first option and tried to use all the colours listed. 
 
So here is my card: 

I am trying out this new technique called Watercolour Smooshing from Make It Monday #204. I am not sure if I am doing this right but maybe I didn't add enough water to my ink so mine looks very spotty. Or, am I using the wrong type of ink for this technique? Any comments on this will be appreciated. However, as this is my first attempt, I quite like it.

I am still very much in love with this bunny from Mama Elephant's Honey Bunny set. It is just so adorable! I used Copic Ciao marker pens to colour in all my images. I also used Stickles, Glossy Accents, yellow cotton thread and sequins to decorate the card. The small cup cake image is from Lawn Fawn- Beep Boop Birthday set and the sentiment is from Avery Elle- Cake & Candles set. Here is a close up picture of the card. (It is great when the camera captures all the shine and glitter!)

I am also entering this card to Papertake Weekly Challenge where this week's theme is "Happy..... Anything".

So... this is the card and I hope you like it. I really need to find time to blog more and God knows how many times I said this. All those cards made and pictures saved on the computer, I really want to share with you all to see what you all say. Well, hope it won't be long till we meet in blog land again! Have a great weekend! See ya~ ^_^
