\"NCC
\n<\/a>For my first card, I used the super cute Hippity Hoppity<\/a><\/strong> set. Don’t you just love the expression on the bunny’s face? When I think of Easter bunnies, I immediately think of pink & white. Nothing like a little fluffy white bunny with pink ears, feet & belly! I know white can be a hard color to try & shade, but if you use just a little light cool gray, it will make a huge difference. Use cool grays because on white, warm or neutrals will tend to look a little dirty<\/span>.<\/span><\/em> So after coloring my bunny, I used a little out of the box<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0(click for tutorial) treatment so his ears wouldn’t be chopped off, lol. For the background I die cut an ODBD Vintage Flourish Pattern background & also the layer behind the bunny out of white. I used the pink ink to sponge from the bottom up on both so they would be darker pink at the bottom & fade to white at the top. I also sponged pink on some of the die cut small eggs. I combined two of the set greetings on the large egg & added the die cut grass. Two of the smallest Aster die cuts were sponged in the center & added on either side. These are the Copics I used.<\/span><\/p>\n

My second card uses the beautiful Pansies set<\/a><\/strong>.
\n\"NCC
\n<\/a>I went with purple pansies since that color is most prevalent in my area. They are so dramatic & velvety! I stamped the pansies twice, colored them then fussy cut them and some of the petals on the top pansy to pop up on top.
\n\"NCC
\n<\/a>The pansies are attached to a purple die cut Quatrefoil Design\u00a0<\/a>. I die cut the green layer w\/ the solid outline, then cut another Quatrefoil pattern out of it to get the frame. Both are attached to a white layer I cut w\/ the solid die then embossed w\/ the pattern die. The large white background was die cut using the Quatrefoil Pattern die<\/a>. I used the largest of the Flourished Star Pattern die<\/a>\u00a0to cut the large purple mat then added a frame I die cut out a piece of designer paper from the Christian Faith<\/a> paper collection.
