Happy Wednesday, peeps! Time for a new Card Concept challenge, where we create a card with a certain concept! Here's the sweet prompt that Julie has for us this week:
What a sweet little vignette! I recently got a little tray like this (mine is white, though) and I have it decorated for Easter too! But I was mostly inspired by the plaid bunny on the top shelf, in addition to the little plaque, so I used those elements for my clean and layered card today:
I had some pretty papers from Carta Bella called Home Again, and so I chose a few coordinating papers, an older set of stitched bunny dies from Lil'Inker, and went to work! I diecut each bunny and layered them on Stitched Shapes circles, then added Crumb Cake bows to coordinate with the sentiment panel:
I created an embossed background my stamping a background stamp in Versamark ink and embossing it with white embossing powder, then I added a couple of banners and another bow at the top. If you look closely, you can see the embossed leafy image:
Everything went on a Crumb Cake mat, then a Lost Lagoon card, and I stamped a simple sentiment on another piece of the designer paper and adhered it to the inside:
I am sad Lil'Inkers went out of business, because they really had some cute dies! These will be in stash forever too!
I hope you'll play along with our pretty little Easter Blessings challenge! Check out what "concept" or style you'd like to use on the Card Concept blog, then play along! Thanks for popping in today!
Speaking of bunnies, here's a little cross stitch project I recently finished; from the photo, it looks like my button is a wee bit off-center, so I guess I'll have to fix that! I didn't have any wooden beads for my dowel, so I used some vintage wooden spools for the ends! Trying to use up some of my craft stash!
Enjoy your day and be blessed!
