Cottontail cuties (Neat and Tangled release week)

Hi there!

cottontail cuties (Neat and Tangled release week)


I have 2 cards to show off today, both using my new set for Neat and Tangled, called Cottontail Cuties.

It features 2 girls dressed in bunny costumes, one holding a little chick and the other pulling a wagon full of Easter eggs.

And obviously, a couple of bunnies.  I love this one, with his arms folded together! For this card, I watercolored a huge heart, and put it against a scalloped rectangle. I then snipped off the "hooray" from inside the wreath and used that to frame my images.

My next card shows off the second bunny and girl images. I cut away the little eggs from her wagon and put the huge egg from the new Eggstra Special there instead. The sentiment is also from Eggstra Special. I propped up the bunny using the tree stump from Lumberjack Love, and did a subtle stenciling on the background layer using the new Scalloped stencil.

A little tip: to make the girl look like she's really holding that flower, I adhered the flower behind her hand, and then used a black pen to draw a connecting line.

I hope you like Cottontail Cuties! There's more to see on the NT blog today - click!
