If you didn't get here from Amanda's blog you can start at the beginning of the hop on the Simon Says Stamp blog!
I'm way behind on starting my Easter card series this year, and the second I saw the new Oh Bunny stamp set I KNEW I had to ink it up first!
As of making these cards I am now OBSESSED with using Distress Oxide inks on Neenah Desert Storm card stock. The solid bunny images stamped with those inks made for the brightest and most fun patterned background!
I'm also really glad that I hoarded my pack of mini pom poms - they make for perfect little bunny butts ;).
Another fast favourite from this release is the new Reverse Polka Background stamp - ESPECIALLY stamped with white pigment ink on the Neenah Desert Storm.
For both cards I heat embossed the outline bunny images with white embossing powder onto the Desert Storm card stock. I then used the Distress Oxide inks and a water brush to color in the one set and the Unicorn White pigment ink and a water brush to color in the other.
I finished off the insides of the cards by stamping the individual outline bunny images with the Distress Oxide inks and a sentiment from the Oh Bunny set with SSS Intense Black Ink and that was it!
To see how these cards came together check out my video below:
