Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
Spring is almost here.
At least we hope so!
The Flower Challenge is asking for...
I used this NBUS stencil that a dear friend gifted me and inked the
wisteria up in purple ink.
I cut the piece in half and die two mini slimline cards.
I added some ink blending around the stenciled design.
Here's the second.
I used a technique by Eileen Godwin for this one.
It's a bookmark tied on a card base.
The card bases are a mini slimline 6 1/4" x 3 1/4"
Maybe a good Easter card....
It's the first outing for the stencil and the rabbit so I'll share this with
NBUS (Never Before Used Schtuff)
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!

Brilliant to cut the lovely stencilled panel into two to turn them into these beautiful mini slimlines. I have yet to give this size a go.
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of a mini slimline Bonnie and also love any card that keeps on giving in the form of a book mark! Whjat a glorious stencil that is! Love the showy wisteria when it arrives (not long now!) Vicky x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Bonnie, your little rabbit looks so sweet under the wisteria. Love the softened colour with the ink blending xx

ReplyDeleteThese are lovely. The purple and green are a great color combination and the mini twofer is brilliant. I love the bunny and the Eileen technique.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautifully done wisteria, Bonnie. I especially love the second one - that adorable bunny is such a perfect addition.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful card Bonnie, or should I say a beautiful bookmark?! I love the scene you created, the wisteria is beautiful and love that bunny the moonlight. Very cool bookmark! Very beautiful bookmark! Hugs, Brenda
ReplyDeleteTwo amazing cards with the wisteria stencil, Bonnie. The colours are GORGEOUS! I do love the butterfly, but have to say that the bunny with the sun in the background is really something special. Looks like you had fun making these cards! :) Thanks for joining us at The Flower Challenge! xx

Wow these are stunning cards, full of vibrancy and what an eye catching stencil Bonnie x.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful and quite whimsical!
ReplyDeleteTwo gorgeous wisteria stenciled cards, Bonnie Inking around the stenciled design gives a softer look and reminds me of spring mist. I especially love the bunny bookmark. The black silhouette and the white sun look awesome with the wisteria!
ReplyDeleteHideko xx
Very pretty, Bonnie, and you've used that stencil wonderfully! Such a pretty scene, I'm almost transported there with the sweet bunny
ReplyDeleteAnalogous colours are the perfect combo for this beautiful stencilling. Both are similar yet very different. Spring is definitely here with Mr Sunshine keeping a smile on our faces. xx
