Easter Bunnies

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

Easter's on it's way!

I think these Alex Siberia bunnies are so cute!

There are other critter dies in this set.  I'm anxious to use them too.

We have brown bunnies in our yard.  Hubby feeds them Cheerios and

they will hop up to him to get them.  These bunnies were cut from white

cardstock and colored with Distress Ink and a finger dauber.

I used a cover plate die for the background.  The label is from a retired Stampin'

Up set and the sentiment is by Papertrey Ink (PTI).

Here's another card that I did with friends last week.

I think this one was everyone's favorite!

Challenges:

A Cut Above - ATG using die cuts

Double D  - Easter/Church/Cross

Wild Wood with Wood Slice

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!

After making this card, I wanted to do at least one more before I put the

set on the shelf.  This time I wanted to use at least one of the wood slices

included with the set.

Here's what I came up with....

Everything but the bees was cut from Neenah Solar White.  I used Distress ink and

blending brushes to color the wood slice and started to color the flowers with 

sponge daubers and ink.  I wasn't crazy about the flowers so I went over them with

Copic markers.

The little bees are very fussy.  The dies cut the body, stripes and wings separately. They

don't take much paper but they do take a steady hand to get them together.  I think you'll

be seeing them often in the future if I can keep my hands steady.

Thanks to Donna for choosing my previous card as a favorite at Freshly Made Sketches.

She inspired me with this card that she'd made.  It was what I needed to get this

set out of my NBUS box and give it a whirl, not once but twice.

Challenges:

Allsorts #843 - Embossing or ATG - Embossed background

Can You Handle the Pressure - ATG with embossing used option of die cuts

A Cut Above - ATG with at least 1 die cut
