Bunny Dreams!

5 Jul

Good morning!!  Today I’m popping in to share two cards using images I colored from this adorable Mama Elephant set:

Wish Upon a Star by Jessica Frost-Ballas

I just love the whimsical look of this whole set!  And those bunnies…SO CUTE!

Wish Upon a Star by Jessica Frost-Ballas for Simon Says Stamp

I had lots of colored images so I decided to break them into two cards…one slightly more involved and one more CAS.  For the first card I started by blending shaded lilac, spun sugar, and picked raspberry distress oxide ink onto a panel of strathmore bristol cardstock.  I splattered it with water and shimmer spray and blotted off the excess.  Then I die-cut the panel with the Hillside Cover die to give the sky a little interest!

I also die-cut the Lots of Stars die from white cardstock and colored them in two shades of pale yellow.  I stamped the sentiment from Wish Upon a Star onto the hillside cover panel with versafine and heat-embossed it with clear embossing powder.  Then I added my bunnies with foam mounting tape.  Finally I scattered the stars around the bunnies in lieu of my normal sequins or jewels! 🙂

I kept my second panel very clean and simple and started by masking off a panel of strathmore bristol cardstock.  I blended the same three inks onto the panel and let them dry.  Once they were dry I stamped the sentiment with versafine and heat-embossed it with clear embossing powder.

I arranged the star fishing bunny on the panel with foam mounting tape and then cut my remaining cloud in half.  I adhered one half to each side of the card to give it a little more interest!  Finally I finished this card with a few more stars!

Don’t forget to shop the Simon Says Stamp holiday sale!  Just a few more days to save!

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day!
