Welcome to my second inspiration piece for our Country View Challenge on the
Theme of "Spring is coming!
I stamped the bunny from the AALL & Create Stamp Set In the Wild (#529) with water based markers and my trusty stamping platform. There is so many stamps in the set I haven't even used all them yet, and I love this slightly grunged up but realistic look of the images. [Yes this is my stamp set of the moment!]I coloured the flowers and leaves with watercolour but the bunny's colours are just stamping. I should add that some of the details of the image has been lost because of the texture of the paper.
The background is stencilled in Distress inks with one of the stencil from the Stampers Anonymous/Tim Holtz Mini Layering Stencil set #35.
As was mulling over how to finish and mat my card, I had to use my sewing machine for some repairs and decided I should take the opportunity to sew a border.
The sentiment is stamped on a die-cut tag (Impression Obsession IO Flags Die Set DIE015-F)

A very cute Easter bunny. How did we ever survive without a stamping platform?! It's perfect for multiple layers of coloured stamping. You've used it to great effect xxx
