Pam Sparks Happy Easter Egg Bunnies

An overdose of Spring today on my blog! Welcome to thoughts of new life, playful bunnies and before we know it, congratulations will be in order!

I inked a background with Distress Inks for the NEW Memory Box Happy Easter Egg, Pasture Grass and Prairie Grass dies. Die cut the scene with the MB Stitched Rectangle Layers die and added the MB Springtime Bunnies die.

Pam Sparks Balloon Scene ps and MB

Next up is a fun scene with the NEW poppystamps Brevilla Hillside die.  I die cut in black and in white cardstock.  I used the frame from the black cut and the pieces from the white cut.

I did ink smooshing on the pieces and the sky with Distress inks…Twisted Citron and Mermaid Lagoon.

The Hot Air Balloon and Sky’s the Limit stamp and Banner are all from the MB Flying High stamp set and Flying High die set.  Super easy to stamp and die cut. I did add a little Copic coloring to the banner and a teeny bit of line shading to the balloon.

Both cards are A2 size.

  5. Love this card Pam….was looking at that die today on Starlit…now I have an idea of what to Do…couldn’t find where t comment,,,,is smoothing…putting water colors or inks with water On non stick sheet and placing paper on it? Being seeing so much watercoloring lately. With Distressed inks and water colors.

    Always love your cards…keep them coming. Vickie

  13. Hi Pam, great cards and the Happy Easter egg is so cute. Thanks, also, for the tip on the machines. I am sort of in the market for one to replace my very old Big Kick…hubby had to put the handle back on for me and I’m not sure how long it will hold. Can’t concentrate on it right now…root canal yesterday and the meds are making me queezy today. Ugh….I’ll take a look later. Hope you are over your cold now. Happy Valentine’s Day!!!

  16. Love both cards Pam. I particularly like the backgrounds…especially your swooshing technique. So soothing. I can’t wait for Easter, and the egg die is so pretty with the cute bunnies. Also, the hot air balloon and sky’s the limit stamps are so cute. I’m always amazed of your creative art scenes and lovely colors. Thank you for sharing and for a chance to win the pretty Easter egg die.

  17. Both of these cards are awesome! LOVE the egg card! Adding the white bunnies to it was brilliant! You always think outside the box! Now I’m kicking myself for not getting that die! ha ha

  18. The Easter card is so cute and the city card is so imaginative. You do make wonderful cards. Can’t wait to get home so I can see them IRL. It might be April before you guys get to have club again with all the weather in Iowa.
