Hopping for the Cuttlebug Spot

Hope your having a hoppin' good day!
The challenge over at the Cuttlebug Spot this week was Double Embossing. Essentially you use two embossing folders on one piece of paper. This challenge was so cool but also a challenge. I tried three different papers before you could tell it was double embossed. I would put it through once then again and the first impression was gone. It was amazing. I finally got it and I really like the outcome.
Here is the card....

I embossed the blue band below the image with the leafy branch (my new fave folder) and swiss dots. The image is Changito Hop Easter. I colored him with my Prisma Colored pencils and stickled his ears and his little bunny slippers. I also added a tiny cotton ball for his bunny tail. I know I've said it before but I love that little monkey. The sentiment is from the same pack of stamps. The "buckle" is a Paper Studio Brad with ribbon from my stash threaded through.

I really like how this card turned out because the colors are so soft.

Have a great evening.
