Easter Wishes with Mix Media.

Hello Friends!

    I'm here  today to share my first  ever mix media creation...an Easter card I sent  my daughter.

Here's a close view of Bunny's face...

Supplies used:

For Background-

Sakura Poster paints

Faber Castell - Art Grip Aquarelles(green, red & yellow), PITT Artist Pen(blue metallic), Gelato (yellow metallic), Gesso through mesh screen

Dreamweaver Stencil- LJ896 Large Flourish

Firecracker Designs Stamps (Fir Tree, Grass & Birds)

Punched butterfly 

Butterfly sticker

Salt

For Bunny-

Stencil of assorted ovals

Designer paper

Copics(Floral Favorites) 

Punches- Martha Stewart- flower shower border punch for Tiara flowers & Swirl punch for curls on head

Googly eyes

Heart bead nose

Faber Castell PITT Artist pen to add details

For Eggs-

Stamp- clear egg shaped with sentiment within

Designer paper

Foam  tape 

    The inspiration for this card was from HERE. For the bunny, I used a stencil to cut the ovals but cut the ones of the ears narrower. For the tiara I cut a thin semi circular piece of green paper & added the negative cut outs of the floral edge punch after colouring them. Added a few fur curls which were ends of the punched swirl. Next I wanted to add greenery, found THIS lovely BoBunny scrapbook paper; but as I didn't want to cut it, I created the background using several mediums listed above. After a watercolour wash on the entire paper, I added some foliage with paint, aquarelles, stamps & stencil. For some texture used Gesso through a mesh screen & also some salt . As the upper half looked very plain, I stamped some birds & added a punched butterfly which I covered with a butterfly sticker and then coloured the uncovered portion with black. The eggs were stamped on dp & cut out. It was fun using mix media that even bunny dirtied her paw while I played around. Thanks to my extra generous blog friends for helping me make this creation possible.
