Ink Up: Bo Bunny

Monday, June 9, 2014

I don't usually make scenes on my cards, but I couldn't resist this sweet stamp and die set from My Favorite Things. And, it was perfect for my daughter's friend, who just had her tonsils removed, and is feeling a little puny today. :(

The background is Bo Bunny paper. I don't have a grass die, so I used a punch and some fun green chevron paper to make a grassy border. The images, from the Let's Hang Out stamp set, are colored with Copics and cut with the coordinating dies. You can't tell in the picture, but I embossed the tire with a stylus from the back and glued it with 3D glue, giving it a rounded look and feel. The shoes are scuffed with a white gel pen, I gave her overalls a denim look with colorless blender and a piece of denim, and added texture to her hat with terry cloth.

I used a cloud stencil from Inky Antics to sponge the clouds on the inside of the card, added another punched border, and stamped the sentiment and smiley face with stamps from a Hero Arts sentiment set.

Thanks for stopping by, and have a wonderful week!

Get well, Jayden!

I've been seeing some really pretty Serendipity word dies lately, and finally got the chance to buy a few for myself. Wow! I just love this one. Cuts like a dream, and what a beautiful font!

The card design is based on the Viva la Verve June 2014 Week 1 sketch, and that cute paper showing through the window, is from the Bo Bunny, Lemonade Stand, collection. I glitterized the word die cut by running the die cut through my Xyron, then coating it in glitter. After burnishing the glitter on the die cut, it really does stay put.

The sentiment and candle stamp are from Penny Black, and the candle is colored with Copics.

Thanks for stopping by, and have a Happy, Happy week!
