today, I want to share something brand new with you: The Stamp Connection.
Connected through our love for card making, blogging and being from Germany we (Cornelia from Stempel Spass and I) decided to create a monthly project within predefined requirements. We are going to show you the result every 3rd Sunday of the month and this is our first transatlantic get-together!
Our requirements for our first meet-up were:
"Easter Bunny/Bunnies and Stencil"
- stamp the cute little bunny from Pink Cat Studio Easter Plate with Versafine (Vintage Sepia) onto a Neenah Desert Strom Kraft cardbase
- cover the image with an egg-shaped mask cut from Eclipse Tape
- ink up the edges of the mask with Distress Ink (Broken China)
- cover the card with the My Favorite Things Jumbo Polka Dot Stencil and apply Hero Arts Unicorn White Pigment Ink using a sponge dauber
- slightly offset the mask and draw dashed lines with a Distress Marker (Broken China)
- stamp the sentiment from Clearly Besotted Stamps Sweet Little Sentiments with Versafine (Vintage Sepia) along thr egg shape - that is one of the good things about clear stamps ... you can manipulate their shape to a certain extent
- remove the mask and add faux stitching with the same Distress Marker to the inside of the egg
- color the image with Spectrum Noir Pencils, Zest-it and Liquid Applique
Here is a close-up of the sweet little bunny:
