Happy Bunny Tails

Posted on March 12, 2012 4:58 AM by Julie 4 Comments

For my card, I stamped the Bunny Tails image twice, colored one w/ Tombow markers and die cut it w/ a Spellbinders labels 21. I cut out parts of the second image and popped them up on top of the base image to add a little dimension. On the bunny tail, I added a little white puffy paint.

The greeting was die cut and I attached on top of a cut out flower stem. The grass border was stamped and colored on the larger layer and I used a black pen and ruler to draw the 3 sided frame. The finished card is 5 x 5.

And here are the markers I used and my notebook.

Believe it or not, but this IS the sketch from today’s challenge on Splitcoast (SC375)! It just got a little covered up. My circle had to be bigger and then I added the fussy cut dogwoods and poof! The horizontal and vertical bands mostly disappeared.

The images are all from DRS Designs and the Hope quote and dogwoods are a sneak peek of new images to be released on Sat. 3/10/12. I’m really loving these dogwoods! Here I stamped them in lightning black and very quickly added just a hint of shading w/ two markers then cut them out. I know, I know…most people don’t care for the fussy cutting, but I like it, lol. And I’ve gotten really quick with it. It took me about 7 or 8 min. to cut out the 3 bunches of dogwoods.

For the quote circle, I stamped the stained glass image w/ the lightning black then stamped the quote over it w/ black before die cutting it. The little left over crescent moon shape is what was left and I kinda liked it so I added some sponged on gold leafing and put it back.

The strips were stamped w/ the stained glass image and the gold ink and a solid strip added on top. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Best of 2012 -SPLITCOASTSTAMPERS!

Love this color combo so much, I worked in another card! The images are a mix of old and new from Our Daily Bread designs. The bird/butterfly label image was inked first w/ the bamboo ink, the flowers were wiped off and inked w/ a pink marker before stamping. I stamped the quote w/ black ink then die cut it.

The green bg was embossed and the edges sponged. The vanilla bg was stamped w/ the pink ink and I made a bg using a little flourish image. A little bird corner was inked the same way as the label image and I fussy cut it to fit in the corner. I put two ribbons together and added some faux pearls (made w/ liquid pearls). The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50.

Supplies:

Stamps: ODBD – Bird & Butterfly Labels & Corners, Faithful Friend, Flourished Verses

Paper: vanilla, wild wasabi clone

Ink: Ancient Page coal, Memento bamboo leaves & angel pink

Accessories: Tombow markers, Spellbinders labels 18, Cuttlebug bird & branch ef, ribbons, faux pearls
