And here’s what I created today:

Lots of fun goodies for Easter! 🙂

First off I had to play with the cute Happy Bunny Border dies and I die-cut them from several pieces of pastel layering papers.  I die-cut the Eyelet cover up die from white cardstock and then layered the bunnies over it in a rainbow pattern!  Finally I finished the card by stamping the bunny face and sentiment from the Happy Bunny set!

Next I took the Easter Egg Pop Up Cover Up die and die-cut it from watercolor paper. Then I just loosely watercolored it with my Daniel Smith watercolors.  No real attempt at “staying in the lines” just lots of bright happy color!  I let that dry while I worked on the rest of the card.

Next I stamped the bunny from Easter Parade with versafine and heat-embossed him with clear embossing powder.  Then I watercolored him with the same watercolors and let him dry before cutting him out with the coordinating dies.  I die-cut a circle from vellum with the Fringe Scalloped Circle die and then layered my bunny on top with ATG adhesive.  Then I used foam mounting tape behind the bunny to adhere the circle to the card panel!

Finally I die-cut the Carrot Treat Holder die from acetate twice and adhered them together with ATG adhesive.  I filled it with Reese’s pieces and then tied it off with green ribbon and kraft twine.  I stamped a cute little bunny face and sentiment from Happy Bunny onto white cardstock and die-cut a tag with the new Charms tag set to finish the treat holder!

 

 

And that’s it for this release!  I hope you’ve enjoyed my projects and the newest release from Lil’ Inker Designs!
