Some Bunny Loves You Challenge at Impression-Obsession
Welcome to today's challenge, Bunny Love Challenge at Impression-Obsession. All details about the challenge are on the IO blog HERE, with links to the other designer's posts.
I used my favorite bunny from the Spring Release, with one of the adorable verses from that release also. This Floral Bunny is nice and big, with amazing details, and so adorable. The verses and flowers from the Sweet Bunny set give lots of options for 'dressing her up.'
IO Stamps:
Sweet Bunny WP927
Some Bunny Loves You D19926
Floral Bunny D23027
I stamped the Floral Bunny onto Arteza watercolor paper, and painted her with Daniel Smith watercolors. I have the basic Essentials set of six, with the PrimaTec six set, and am able to mix any color combination I can think of. These are available now at 35% off, and come with a free sample chart of 238 watercolor paints when you buy the two sets. Can't beat the prices at Dick Blick!
I also water colored some of the flowers from the set, and I fussy-cut all the pieces.
On a white card, I layered a piece of lavender card stock, and I tore a piece of green textured card stock and attached it to the bottom. I attached the bunny with foam tape, and added the flower headpiece and smaller flowers on the 'ground.'
I stamped the Some Bunny Loves You verse with VersaFine Claire nocturne ink. I added a few assorted moonshine sequins in various sizes.
And for the inside:
I stamped the bunny from Sweet Bunny WP927 the set, along with a verse.

Personal note: This card was made a few weeks ago, and the post was scheduled then to go live today. Right now I am recuperating from some injuries I sustained when I met the sidewalk, literally, face-to-face. Thankfully, the only thing broken was my wrist, unfortunately, the right, dominant hand. So, it's been two weeks now. The wrist is starting to feel somewhat better. I still can't take off the brace except for showers, etc. But I have tried some colored pencil, and have managed to do some...but very slowly. I am trying to behave and let it heal, but it's so difficult staying away from my art! I hope to be back full-time soon, and have more current posts. Thankfully, I can still work on my computer!
Thanks so much for visiting today. I appreciate you spending time here, and leaving your insights and comments.
Blessings,
