Wishing You a Happy Easter

Published by leslierich at 11:09 pm under Cards, Flourishes

My bunny and I would like to wish you and yours a wonderful Easter Sunday!  I didn’t get much of a chance to use my Easter Bunnies set in time for Easter but I’ll be happy to file this away, ready for next year.  It will serve well as a table decoration for a few days before it’s zip locked for safe keeping.

Mar08 Polka Dot Bunny

I watercolored the bunny with inks and added polka dots with my Signo white gel pen to match the polka dots in the pretty BasicGrey Perhaps paper in the background.  The May Arts velvet ribbon is from Flourishes and the beaded flower is a Wal-Mart find.  I cut the scallop border down the side of this top fold card both layers (front and back) at once with my Fiskars paper edgers.

I won’t keep you long on Easter Sunday.  I’ll just leave you with a wish for a wonderful day — take care!

Stamps:  Easter Bunnies

Paper:  River Rock, Pretty in Pink, watercolor paper, BasicGrey Perhaps designer paper

Ink:  Palette Hybrid Noir, Wild Wasabi, various for watercoloring

Accessories:  Velvet ribbon, beaded flower, Making Memories snaps, Signo white gel pen, Fiskars paper edgers, scallop punch, 1 1/4″ & 1 3/8″ circle punches, Scotch brand dimensional mounting tape

    I love your post — you are quite talented.

    As far as Easter goes, God does not want to just rescue people from this material world — God wants to restore all things. God CHOSE to send His son to die on the cross for OUR sins.

    Jesus’ resurrection reminds us of three things

    God has defeated death.
    God has defeated evil.
    God has begun His redemptive work.

    How cute!!! Love that pink polka dotted bunny, and the pretty lawn you created for her (this has to be a girl bunny)! I really like this Perhaps paper, and it works wonderfully here. Great finishing touches with the embellishments, especially that velvet ribbon. Linda
