Bunnies n Bows

Easter makes me think of bunnies so here is a bright and cheerful card I made. They're not the type of cards I do normally but thought I'd have a go.

Isn't it lucky that eggs are the same shape as balloon's.

To recreate this card follow the guide below:

® = retired, (sab) = Sale-A-Bration, (H) = Hostess, (nsu) = not stampin’ up, (ss) = Stamp set, (dsp) = designer series paper, (CS) = Card Stock

Whisper White (cs) base card 14.5 x 21 cm scored at 10.5 cm 
Whisper White (cs) 14 x 10 cm
Grapefruit Grove 6 x 1.5 cm
Gingham Gala (dsp) Lemon Daffodil Delight, Grapefuit Grove and Lemon Lime Twist measuring  4.5 x 3. 5
Daffodil Delight, Grapefuit Grove and Lemon Lime Twist (cs) measuring 3 x 3 cm
Whisper White measuring 3 x 9 cm
Whisper White measuring 6 x 1.5 cm
Organdy (sab) ribbon Daffodil Delight, Grapefuit Grove and Lemon Lime Twist 

• Emboss the Whisper White 14 x 10 cm mat using the Basket Weave dynamic folder and adhere to the base card using liquid glue
• Using the Gingham Gala (dsp) punch 3 of the larger balloons with the Balloon Bouquet punch, one in each colour,  and snip the bottom off to make the eggs
• Punch the 3 scalloped circles, 1 of each colour using the 1⅛ scallop punch and adhere each one to it's corresponding egg using liquid glue
• Stamp the 3 rabbits using Basic Grey, then use blends to colour them (1 in light Smoky Slate and 2 in light Crumb Cake, doing the ears with Light petal Pink and the collars 1 in each of the following colours, Daffodil Delight, Grapefruit Grove and Lemon Lime Twist). Die cut each of them using the 1" circle punch, and adhere using small dimensional pads.
• Punch a Classic Label in Grapefruit Grove
• Stamp the Happy Easter using the Teeny Tiny Sentiments (ss). To get the variegation I drew 3 thin lines, one of each of the main colours onto my Stamp a ma - jig pressed the stamp onto it and then stamped on the Whisper White (cs) (it worked quite well)).
• Punch the sentiment using the Classic Label punch, then trim it down slightly on either side and adhere to the Grapefruit Grove label using dimensional pads
• Adhere the finished sentiment to the base card using liquid glue
• Add small Rhinestones to each of the collars and either side of the sentiment
• Make one small bow in each of the 3 colours and adhere using glue dots

Will be back again soon with more cards
