Many sites are currently having Springtime card challenges, and I wanted to participate! One of the challenges was Bunnies, so that was my inspiration for this card.
My Mother-in-law gave me all of her old stamps, and this border stamp was part of her stash. I am always so glad when a challenge gets me to use her old rubber mounted stamps. I typically just use my new clear polymer stamps, but there is something special about stamping with her previously loved stamps.
I colored the images with both Prismacolor pencils and Copic markers. The majority of the image was colored with the pencils and then blended with mineral spirits. I love the effect you can get with the mineral spirits and pencils.
