Hi! Back to Easter today. I have to confess, I'm feeling a bit of Easter card fatigue. I know! This makes card #5 and I'm already burned out? So typical of me. That's another good reason to work ahead on the holidays. I don't even feel compelled to send out a lot of Easter cards. It's just that I had a few things not yet used.
On today's card the not-yet-used products are the Tim Holtz Carrot Bunny die set and Tree Rings 3D embossing folder. I've had both for many months (a year maybe?). To my eyes the Tree Rings background is the coolest thing.
The wreath here is Tim Holtz, the flowers are Heartfelt Creations, the big sentiment is Impression Obsession. All colored with inks and blending brushes. The TH Carrot Bunny set and, in fact, most of the stamps and dies I used for Easter this year can be used for other occasions as well. I cut and colored more of these bunnies and carrots but will save them for something else.
Okay, friends, I'm hopping along to Darnell's NBUS Challenge #60 with Carrot Bunny and Tree Rings.
I'll see you again shortly. Have a happy day!
Love this card Leslie! I know what you mean about Easter card fatigue. I had to make 6 for a friend, and was glad once I was done. Anyway, back to your card. Love all the elements you used which makes for a fabulous card! Makes me smile!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful day!

THis is fantastic. Your cards are so detailed and fabulous, I can imagine the fatigue...they take TIME.
ReplyDeletecute bunny card. I don't think I really made any Easter card...
ReplyDeleteHave a great day
The tree ring embossing is fantastic and so perfect for a lot of occasions, especially for masculine cards! I may have to look for that. Love this bunny with his carrot! He sure makes me smile and I can't wait to see what else you do with him.
ReplyDeleteThat bunny is so darn cute! Love the three rings background. It really looks like you cut a piece of wood for your card front. Always great when we can use some of the dust-collecting NBUS items! :) xx
ReplyDeleteThis is darling Leslie! I like that tree ring background as well. So much texture, and I like the way you've colored it. That little bunny couldn't be any cuter with his giant carrot! The wreath and flowers bring your eye right in to this cute little fellow.
ReplyDeleteI just love how your imagination and magical fingers work, to create fun cards of HAPPINESS and beauty in the most unexpected ways, Leslie. This woodsy scene of "gimme my carrots" is amazing! I can smell the freshly sawn wood (alas, of your glorious and recently "retired" tree) and the deep color of deeply-forested ferns, mosses, and leaves found only in the northwest forests. LOVING the added inky detailing in your tiny pieces. Happy early Easter, my friend! xx
ReplyDeleteYou can definitely tell your bunny is a TH and he looks awesome toting around that big carrot! I love your background too...a perfect landing pad for Mr. Bunny!! Sweet card Leslie...LOVE it!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteAnother cute Easter card! I agree with you on the tree rings background. Never saw that before. Love the adorable bunny guarding their carrot! I had better get started on some Easter cards!
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable bunny Leslie! He does take centre stage - but only just because the tree rings EF is spectacular and adds a real 'TA-DA' touch! Vicky x
ReplyDeleteI love this carrot-toting guy! Such a cute Easter card, Leslie! Your wood-slice embossing is amazing!
ReplyDelete=]
That wood slice EF does make a fabulous background! And this bunny, come on... could this guy be any more fun! CUTE card, Leslie!
ReplyDeletewhat a cute little bunny with his carrot and that Embossed background is amazing xx
ReplyDeleteso cute, I love the expression on the bunny and your pretty flowers to go with the wreath. That is a cool embossing folder, I have quite buying anymore of their folders I can't get a good impression with the ones I have using my Gemini Jr.
ReplyDeleteMy eyes agree with you, Leslie! And that bunny and woodsy wreath look so perfect on it! I love how startled he is by the size of that carrot! Thanks for linking again! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteOh, how cute is that bunny and his big carrot! His ears look a bit electrified! The background is amazing, I have taken note of that one as it would be so versatile. I LOVE how you put the most fun details together to make your cards unique.
ReplyDeleteI love love love this!!! I have seen that cute bunny and it's on my lost. What a fun card!
