Hello everyone -  I am really enjoying the new stamp sets from the Flourishes LC March New Release!  Today I am sharing a card using the Easter Bunnies illustrated by Lauren Pope - such an adorable stamp set...it is not just for Easter - a BABY card works well too.

The image has been stamped onto Flourishes Classic White card stock using black ink and coloured using Chameleon Pens the female rabbit and has been fussy cut/ hand cut using scissors and layered onto a Tailor-Made Classic Keyhole Die Set . The Die has been used as a Stencil, sponging inside the Dies using Angel Pink ink and a Sponge Dauber and popped up using 3D Foam Squares onto a layer of card stock that has been embossed using the Spellbinders Dotted Flowers      Embossing Folder. A strip of narrow green Seam Binding added down the centre.

The sentiment has been stamped using Tuxedo Black Ink and cut/embossed using the Perfectly Pierced Classic Hourglass Die Set. The Die has been used as a Stencil, sponged using Imagine Memento Angel Pink ink and a Sponge Dauber.  It is then popped up onto the layered image using  Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares.

A green double seam binding bow has been adhered above the Die cut and beautiful Want2Scrap Swirls Finesse white pearls have been adhered from under the bow and onto the Die cut.  Finishing with a single small pearl either side of the sentiment.
