Easter card by GDT Nan

Nan joins us as Guest Designer again today with her wonderful Easter card inspiration for our current Celebrations challenge featuring my quirky cute Baby Balleigh Bunnies!

 

 

Nan took the Baby Bunny Balleigh Monsters from the border digi included in the Baby Bunny Balleigh Monster set and fussy cut them out.  She coloured them up with coloured pencils and added them to her card with pop dots.  Nan created the card base using a SVG cut file by Craft with Sarah and decorated the cut outs with various patterned papers.

"Somebunny Loves You" - Scratch Hearts and Baby Bunny Balleigh Monster card by Leigh!

Howzit Creative Friends!

The horror unfolding in Europe is horrendous and we just wanted to take a moment to send out our thoughts and prayers to the people of Ukraine and neighbouring countries😞

Our February Challenge #2 - Let Love Bloom ends tonight at 11:55pm pacific so still time to get some last minute makes in!  What a fabulous turn out of gorgeous makes have been shared, thank you everyone for playing along with us this month❤️  Our creativities for March start on the 4th plus our Feb Winners announcement is coming soon too so stay tuned😁

 

Before we say farewell to February I've got more Valentine themed make to share with you today!

"Somebunny Loves You"

Valentine Card by Leigh

 

One last Valentine make for you today created by moi using my fun and versatile Scratch Hearts Background and one of my adorable lil bunnies, Tipsy, from the Baby Bunny Balleigh Monster set.

 

 

The "Some Bunny Loves You" is a Silhouette Studio cut file by Kolette Hall that I've had in my library for awhile and not used yet, this card was the perfect time to play with it! 

 

 

I started out by making my Distress Oxide background with Worn Lipstick and Candied Apple and printed out the Scratched Hearts design for a fun and dramatic background.

 

Tipsy Baby Bunny Balleigh Monster is very happy to be out on a Valentine card.  I coloured Tipsy with Prismacolor pencils and added Diamond Stickles to Tipsy’s eyelids for a touch of pretty sparkle.  I fussy cut out the cutie bunny and adhered to the card with a pop dot for a bit of dimension.

 

I cut the “Somebunny Loves You” sentiment out twice from black cardstock using my Silhouette Cameo 4 and applied metallic gold Spectrum Noir Midas pigment ink to one of them to use as a shadow layer which was achieved by matting the 2 cut elements together with a slight offset.

 

For a touch of subtle shimmer I painted the black sentiment layer with a Spectrum Noir Onyx Black sparkle glitter brush pen.

 

 I then applied metallic gold Spectrum Noir Midas pigment ink to the edges of the background panel and mounted it onto a top fold card I made from heavy weight black cardstock.

And that now wraps up our month of Valentine makes!  Stay tuned for the Winners announcement of our Gothic Valentine Blog Hop and the  “Let Love Bloom” challenge while getting ready to play in our March challenge starting on the 4th😉

Day 25
"Egg Hunt"

Baby Balleigh Bunnies slimline card

by Leigh

 

My Spring Blog Hop finale inspiration for you today is a fun Easter card featuring my new Baby Balleigh Bunnies, Tipsy, Nibbles and BunBun, as well as the Easter Eggs and one of the senties from the Bunny Balleigh Monster set plus the clouds from the Rainbow Arch set.

 I fussy cut out the Baby Bunnies and Easter Eggs and coloured them with Prismacolor pencils.  I decided not to colour the clouds for this card.  To give the bunnies fun dimension I molded their cute little ears by curving and bending the cardstock.

I used my Silhouette Cameo 4 to cut out the slimline card elements, the folded card base and the 2 scalloped panels.  I added 3 square cuts in the top panel to make the windows.  

I also cut out 2 grass borders (Paige Evans) from 2 shades of green cardstock with my Silhouette.  Then trimmed them to size to create the layered grass scenes for each window for the Easter Eggs to hide in.

For the background I cut a piece of cardstock a bit larger than the top panel and coloured the sky with Tumbled Glass and Broken China Distress Oxide inks.  I then embellished the assembled card with my “egg hunt” senti and Crystal Stickles glitter glue and 4 tiny yellow pearlescent pearls.
