Happy Easter! and for those of you who don't celebrate Easter - Happy Spring! In keeping with the holiday Cupcake Inspirations has a lovely inspiration for you. Those cupcakes are just adorable with the candy handles and robin's egg sitting atop the icing. I'd sure like to get my hands on one of them. If you aren't inspired by the cupcakes you can use the colors for your inspiration. They are perfect for spring.
This week we have Robyn's Fetish is back sponsoring us. You can find an image for any kind of card there and you can see some more samples on our challenge blog. The sweeties always make beautiful samples.
For me it seems that while Spring has actually been here a week or so when Easter gets here it feels official. That probably goes back to my childhood when Easter Sunday was the day that everyone finally broke out their spring finery. We actually wore hats and gloves in those days. But I digress...
For my card I used Kid Bunny and made him lavender just like the bunny on the cupcake. His bow and the card base are green. The faux stitching and sentiment is done with a purple fine point marker. One of the cool things about digital images is that you can make any size your printer will allow. You can make this image fit on a tag to tie around an Easter basket and it would be especially cute if you colored the face and hair like the recipient's face and hair.
Here's the deets:
stamp - Robyn's Fetish "Kid Bunny" digi
ink - hp printer
paper - Recollections "Pink Plaid" and "Pink and White Daisies" patterned papers; My Favorite Things "Sour Apple" card stock; Bazzill "Intense Amythyst" card stock; Stampin' Up
