Happy Easter!

Hi Ai Fans!
It's Easter weekend and I want to wish everyone a very Happy Easter! I'm sharing with you my last Easter card for this year! I am using the Art Impression adorable bunny called "Kate"! Kate is so sweet and really doesn't have to be used just at Easter!
For this card I really wanted my image to pop so I decided to just use 2 main colors, white and purple. I embossed the white paper with a design from Cuttlebug called Kassie's Brocade. I popped up the Spellbinders purple and white frame with foam tape for added dimension. I love the tiny pop of color with the yellow flower as well!
I kept the inside simple as well. The sentiment is from High Hopes and is called "Blessed Easter  Script".
Copics Used:
Bunny: C0, C2, C4, colourless blender
Skirt & headband: BV01, BV02, BV04
Sweater: dots of BV01, BV02, BV04, BV08
Flower: Y11, Y15, Y17

I hope you have a great weekend with Family and Friends!
Happy Stamping!

New Challenge!

Hi Ai Fans!
It's the second week of the Art Impressions Challenge called.....
Art Impressions also released 3 new of Mini Watercolor stamp sets last week and the Design team is showing their projects made with these today. I am using the "Watering Can" set and the New "Window Deco Die Set" to make this card with.

I embossed the front of my card with the Darice Ornate Frame folder and then cut out my window. I love the lattice work on the window and that it also opens as well. The window gives you a sneak peek of my watercolored "Watering Can". The window adds a really neat element to your projects! The set also comes with a curtain, valance and rod stamp and matching die as well. 
Here's my "attempt" at watercoloring LOL. I still need to practise a lot! I really have a hard time with watercoloring. I think it's because things don't look "perfect" like when you just stamp and color. The "OCD" in me has an issue with that LOL. I used a white gel pen on the middles of the blue flowers. I also used elements from the "Spring Basket" and "Flowering Mailbox" watercolour sets to make my flower arrangement in the can.
Closeup of the lattice, isn't it beautiful!
Colors Used:
Weathered wood Distress Ink
Bundled Sage Distress Ink
Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink
Abandoned Coral Distress Ink
Tomboy marker #528 Navy Blue
