Today is the second day of the inspirational Pretty Pink Posh new release blog hop and I'm so excited to share some cards with you using the Bunny Friends set and lots of of the other new dies. I made six cards and shared four of them on my last blog post. I have two more to share with you today all using the same stamp and die set.
Here are the first four cards I showed on the other post and you can view that post to see directions for each of them HERE:
And here are the two cards I haven't shared yet with directions for each:
This card uses a few of the new dies from the release. I love the Stacked Edges 2 die set - these diamonds look so pretty all lined up together as a background. First I watercolored a background using blues and purples. Then I die cut a stitched rectangle out of this piece. Next, I die-cut several of the Stacked Edges 2 die from the stitched rectangle and lined them up on the front of a card base.
I die-cut two of the Decorative Egg dies out of white cardstock and colored the inside pieces with a purple Copic Marker. I attached these to the front of the card and glued the Pansy Purple Jewels on each center piece. I stamped the bunny and flowers on white cardstock with natural colored ink and colored them in with Copic Markers. I attached them around the eggs. I used the Easter Egg Shaker and Happy Easter Script dies for the salutation. The script words were too big to fit across the card, so by cutting the word Happy out of the shaker, I was able to fit the whole salutation along one line. I covered it with White Blizzard Tonic Nuvo Drops. I added Gems to the center of the flower.
For this card, I started with a texture paste background. I colored texture paste with Abandoned Coral Distress Ink and then rubbed it over a dotted stencil like the SSS Medium Dots Stencil. I then die-cut the piece of white cardstock into a stitched rectangle. I painted a piece of watercolor paper with several colors of watercolor paint for the inside of the eggs. I die-cut them with the Decorative Egg dies (x3) and then also die-cut some white frames from white cardstock. These layered eggs over the background became my frames for the bunnies.I stamped the bunnies on white cardstock with a light color of ink and then colored them in with Copic Markers and used colored pencils to shade them. I also colored some flowers and carrots. I attached all of these elements over the egg frames. I die-cut the word Easter from the Happy Easter die and colored it with Copic markers in several colors to match. I attached that to the top of the card.

While both of these cards are super adorable, I love the blue & purple color palette. I don't think I would ever have thought of that, and it is so darn pretty!
