Hello! Today I’m sharing my card for week 3 as guest designer over on the Simon Says Stamp’s Wednesday Challenge Blog.
I have to admit. I STRUGGLED with this card. My creative mojo was gone and I wasn’t sure where to start so I decided to do a watercolor background using Distress Ink. I was going for the look of an Easter egg that had been dyed. I applied Spun Sugar, Tumbled Glass, and Shabby Shutters Distress Ink to a large, acrylic block and sprayed it heavily with water. I laid a piece of watercolor cardstock on top. After it was dry, I tied some tan string around it and adhered the framed sentiment on top. I stamped the bunny from THIS set on to some watercolor paper (to give texture), cut him out and placed him popping out of the frame. I used some Bazzill cardstock as the card base and for the hearts that I punched out to use as embellishments. To finish off the card, I covered the hearts with Glossy Accents.
