Hoppy Easter!

Good morning! I really appreciate you coming by and I apologize for not posting the last three days. I don't know where the time goes on the weekends! I cleaned and created, but didn't get around to posting!
On the other hand, is there a better collection for Easter than Magnolia's Hoppy Easter? I think not!! This is #3048 Bunny Tilda! She is on preorder right now (sorry!). The cart is #601 Wagon of Eggs and is available at Magnolia-licious! AND here's the PAPER!
I colored the wagon and cut it out with a rectangle nestability. While in the die I used my 1 inch stencil brush to brush Aqua Mist ink around the rectangle. Then I used a little Distress Vintage Photo right over it so the color wasn't so bright. When I do a background this is how I do it-I don't own the compressor for my copics.
The wagon is colored with Y21, E31, E33, E25 and E29. The grass is YG01, and YG25. The eggs are BG0000, BG10. The wheels are BG10 and BG72. Miss Bunny Tilda herself was colored to match this wonderful Magnolia paper! It isn't really pink, it's a perfect match for SU's Pale Plum! I used markers RV0000, RV93 and RV11.. My card is an unusual 4 3/4" x 51/2". And finally, is my attempt to one of the beautiful flower clusters all you creative, talented crafters are doing- I'm not very good at it!
Have a great Monday! Me, I wish I didn't have to go to work today! But, oh well, it's off to work I go! Hi, Ho!
Thanks again for stopping by! Love ya!

Hey, Chickie!!

Good Monday morning to all! My Hoppy Easter stamps came on Friday and I got many of them stamped right away! They are all so terrific, but I remember when Diana first opened her preorder and showed us these images-this was one of the first ones to catch my eye! She is soooo cute in her costume! After choosing the image I chose the sketch from the Sweet Sunday Sketch challenge blog. She has some really great ones! Then I set to coloring our sweet Tilda! She came out just as I hoped she would. I found this oval in a stash of cut ovals that I had discarded from previous cards-the bottom was aqua so I put it back in the Spellbinder's Die and used my stencil brush to swirl on some Adirondack lettuce ink! Perfect background!
I chose my papers from the recent Cosmo Cricket release 6x6 pad. I got the card laid out and decided the Kraft needed a stamp so I called on my SU background-linen.
Once I got the buttons on I needed something on the left so decided on this single flower and some fern punches.
No room for a sentiment on this 4.5" x 4.5" card so I will finish the inside with a layer of dp and then use my "Hey, Chickie!" sentiment for a hello card to a friend. She doesn't need to be just for Easter!
She makes me smile!
Wishing you a terrific day! Thanks so much for a great blog week last week! I have my attempt at a Distressed Tilda card for you tomorrow!
