Bunny Blooms

Howdy!

Today starts another new challenge over on the  High Hopes Stamps Blog. The Challenge this month is "Anything Goes". I decided to get a start on my Easter cards. This card uses the High Hopes image Bunny Blooms, and sentiment Blessed Easter Script.

 I've had this die for awhile now and finally decided to use it! I love all the circles and filled them with coordinating paper from the Doodle Bug "Hello Sunshine" 6x6 paper pad.

Inside of card

Instead of colouring the bunny with my Copic markers I decided to paper piece him. Paper piecing is such a fun technique and easy to do! Just stamp your image onto patterned paper and fussy cut it out. Then all you have to do is glue it onto a pre-stamped image. I did colour a bit with my markers though. There's a little bit of clear Wink of Stella Glitter Pen on the tulips.

Copics Used:

Tulips: RV23, RV25, RV29, Y13, Y15, Y17

Inside of ears & cheeks: R20, R21

Nose & eyes: Black Sakura Gel pen

Teeth: White Uniball marker pen

Golden Oldies!

TGIF!

Today I am sharing with you my card using the super cute Birthday Couple (Sku#1920) image! They remind me so much of my Grandparents! The gentleman looks like he is a real prankster and my Grandpa was just like that with his "dry" sense of humour!

What makes me laugh the hardest is the sentiment "Teeth Flew Out (Sku#1936) that I used on the inside! My Grandpa had false teeth and as a child I remember seeing them sitting in a cup of water and was just amazed that He could take out his teeth!

 Copics used:

Skin: E00, E11, R20
Purple parts: V04, V05, V06
