C is for Checks


Hello again, thanks for your visit.  Today we begin a
new challenge at Alphabet Challenges  - Helen has
chosen for the letter C
C is for Checks either stamps or papers.
Please check for details and to see the wonderful
inspiration from the design team.
I used some check paper from my stash for the background,
My main image is a Hare by Crafty Individuals, with 
flowers from my stash. 
I first stamped and masked the hare, then blended 3 DI
to create the background, added water drops, glitter 
for stars. Removed the mask, lightly coloured the hare,
then added a little glitter to the moon. 
Stay safe and well.
