Talk to the tail...ft. Kate Hadfield Designs

 

Hello everyone!   Warmer weather is coming and all the little animals will be

coming out of their winter hiding places.  Today I'll be using products from

Kate Hadfield Designs

Hoppy Easter Digital Stamp Set

 

 

This little bunny butt is so adorable!  Let me show you how I made my card. I 

chose my background paper and composed my images.  I only

used 2 of the images in the set…but there are so many options.  I also made a

sentiment that is actually a line from a movie and seems very

appropriate!  Too cute!

 

 

I had a die in my stash that I wanted to use.  So I printed out

my images and used the die to cut the main focal.  I hadn’t realized that 

it was a frame and didn’t leave the middle intact.  So, the frame was from die

cutting the focal image and then I die cut a piece of blue dot paper.  I

also die cut the sentiment out of the white and then again out

of the blue paper to put beneath the white.

 

 

I started the coloring with the dirt.  I used my Copics and did

stippling…making dots with different shades of brown.  I did

not color any of the dirt solidly.

 

 

I next colored the grass and feet.  I didn’t go really dark with any

of my mixes.  I wanted to keep the vibe springy and light.

 

 

All that was left to color was the bunny butt.  I used warm

grays for this.  I am really partial to brown bunnies, but I felt

that with the dirt it wouldn’t look right.

 

 

All of my pieces were ready to assemble.

 

 

I fussy cut image and left a very narrow white border around

 the image.  I adhered my sentiment in the lower left corner.  I added 

a fluffy tail to the bunny.  A cotton ball would have worked best 

for this but I didn’t have any, so I used a piece of quilt batting.  I

 added tiny butterfly sequins and my card was finished!

 

 

This was a relatively easy card to put together and it came out so

adorable.  I hope I’ve inspired you to give it a try!
