Happy Easter

Happy Easter!

I hope your day is filled with many blessings.
I created a fun card using some new and older supplies.

So, here's what I did to create my card.
  • I placed a piece of white cardstock into my Misti and stamped the new to me bunny face with Versafine Clair black ink.
  • I die cut around the bunny head with the arched die, being sure to leave enough space at the bottom to stamp the Happy Easter greeting.
  • Next, I used some watercolour pencils to add the pink to the ears and nose and fill in some areas.
  • To add detail to the background, I used the Simple Mosaic stencil and some Broken China Distress Oxide ink to help ground the bunny.  
  • I used the ink left on my blending brush to ink the edges of the arch as well.
  • I dry embossed a piece of pale blue cardstock and sanded it slightly to give it a bit of a distressed look.
  • I glued the embossed cardstock onto an A2 sized card base and then used some foam tape to pop the bunny arch over that.  

Here is the stencil I used:
