Ink 'n' Splatter Inspiration Post

Good afternoon everyone and welcome to another inspiration post from me for Ink 'n' Splatter. This time I am using the Hoppy Bunnies stamp set and Easter Egg Explosion Patterned Paper Pack again. 

I decided to go for a shaker card for a change and use up some of the left over gems that I have from my diamond painting kits. You get a heap of gems in each pack and never use them all. As they are tiny, I find them hard to use on cards, but are the perfect size to add to a shaker! I also added some other flower shaker pieces too. 

The little bunny looks like he is hunting in a hole for some more delicious Easter eggs to eat and maybe he will share them with his bunny friends!

Scene It Sunday #39 Featuring Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime Happy Easter from Polkadoodles

Good morning everyone and welcome to this week's Scene It Sunday. I guess I am cheating a bit here as it is a very small scene, but most of my Easter cards are a lot more simple than my other scenic cards. I actually attempted to make 6 cards last Sunday, this being one of them, but by the end my mojo had had enough and they all became simpler and simpler as I got through them. That was all my fault for not being organised enough and getting them done before I needed them. (I needed 6 for my work colleagues in my team!)

Anyway...this cutie is Happy Easter from the Winnie Sugar Sprinkles Springtime Collection from Polkadoodles! She just looks so adorable dressed up in her bunny outfit to deliver Easter eggs and pretty flowers to her friends and family!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter from Shelly and Nibbles

Good morning and welcome to today's post. I was lucky enough to win some fabulous digis from Sweet November Stamps this month - their last release, which I am sad about as I have only recently discovered these cuties from Amy Young and fast became an avid follower of both Amy and the Sweet November stamps. Using Amy's colour along video that she did on Facebook a few weeks back, I created this cute scene using 2 of the digis that I won.

Now I'm by no means a drawer at all, but I think this turned out pretty good! The tree was totally inspired by Amy as was the river which I decided to add in at the last minute, hence why it's not very big at all! I do think my tree's branches are a bit too long, and I went for the stippling technique to do the leaves rather than curls like Amy did, but I do like it! I added the sentiment with my new alphabet dies from Mama Elephant, but as an after thought, should have done Hoppy Easter instead of Happy!

Hoppy Easter!

Good morning everyone! I don't tend to make a lot of Easter cards, but I just bought this cute set from Lawn Fawn and decided to use my Let's Toast Pull Tab die to make a three-way pull up, so it looks like the bunnies are hopping up and down with excitement for Easter!

It took a bit of faffing about but I eventually got it to work, although it is a bit stiff pushing the tab back down! I think I have over bent the card a bit trying it and moving things around too much, but it looks cute!

Bunnies down...

Bunnies up...
