Painting Eggs with Mr. Bunny

Hi, Jeanne here today.  The Easter bunny has been busy this week painting eggs!

For this card I started with a white A2 card base (8 1/2 x 5 1/2 scored at 4 1/4 to create a top fold card) then added a panel of plaid paper cut to 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inches.  I wanted my eggs to be variegated rather than solid so I took out my Distress Oxide inks in colors to coordinate with the paper.

I had fun creating a large panel that I could use to cut the eggs, paintbrush tip and paint can paint.  I die cut Mr. Bunny and everything else from various colors of cardstock.

Before I assembled Mr. Bunny I took a sponge dauber and some Crumb Cake ink to give his edges just a bit of dimension. 

Next I used the largest of the Nested Wacky Stitched Rectangles dies to cut a panel for my scene and sentiment.  I used a stamping platform to stamp the sentiment in two different colors.

Finally, I arranged my eggs under the sentiment.  I really like how cutting the eggs from the blended panel gives variation to them.

This card goes together quickly but is a little messy - brings back memories of coloring real Easter Eggs with my kids!

Thanks for stopping by today - I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
