HELLO!! 

I'm here today with CAS-ual Fridays Stamps and Crafting of Hue for a Critter Inspiration Special!! I've created a SWEET Spring Birthday Card for today sing the Somebunny Stamp Set, Bunny Fri-Dies, Pretty Posies Stamp Set and the Posies Fri-Dies!! Let's get to it!! 

I Started by Stamping and Embossing my Images using Versa Fine Black Onyx Ink and WoW Clear Gloss Embossing Powder!! I then Colored everything In with Copic Markers!! Normally, I would have colored my Flowers alittle Lighter, but I wanted them to be BOLD for this Card!! So I colored them BRIGHT and FULL of Color!! (Orange Flowers: YR02, YR18 and YR68  Yellow Flowers: Y11, Y15 and YR23  Pink Flowers & Balloon: RV00, RV02, RV13 & RV17  Greenery: YG03, YG17 & G05  Bunny: C0, C2 & C5   Cheeks and Inside of Ears: RV00)  

Once colored, I used the Coordinating Dies to Die Cut everything Out!! Then I added some Nuvo Drops in Walnut Crystal to the center of the Flowers!! I set them aside to Dry and once Dry I added some White Gel Pen Highlights!! I really think these small detail really add ALOT to the Images!!  

For my Background I Inked the Card Panel with Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink added Water Splatters and then added some Black Soot Distress Paint Splatters!! I LOVE how BRIGHT it is so that the Bunny really POPS!! 

I then adhered everything to create my Scene using some Foam Tapes in areas!! Then I added a Few Iridescent Jewels!! I Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment and Cut it Down backing it with a Small Black Border and adhering it to the top of the Flowers!! I also added some Tumbled Glass Distress Oxide Ink to help make it blend in and PoP!! I also added some Clear Glitter Pen to the Flowers and Balloon Images and then I added some Morning Dew Nuvo Drops to the Balloon to make it Shiny!! I LOVE the way it turned out!!

I started by Die Cutting a Pinpoint Scalloped Circle from Memory Box in Pink and then Layering it with a MFT Pierced Circle Die Cut in Red Cardstock and Distress Water Color Cardstock!! I then Stamped and Embossed my Image on Distress Water Color Paper and Water Colored it with my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers!! I then used Distress Ink in Tumbled Glass to create a FUN Highlight onto my Pierced Circle Die Cut and added the Fussy Cut Image along with some Clear Crystal Sequins from Pretty Pink Posh!! I Die Cut a Banner also from MFT!! I Stamped and Embossed my Sentiment and added a Few Sprinkles from the Set!! I used Foam Tape and added it to my Card Base that I Die Cut using the Double Pierced Rectangle Die Set from Avery Elle!!  =)

 My second Card I used the FUN Burst Die from Avery Elle for my Card Front!! I used a  MFT Pierced Circle Die Cut to create the Shaker Window and then used the SSS Birthday Circle Die for a FUN touch to add to the Sentiment!! I LOVE the way it looks!! Then I used some Sprinkles from PTI along with some Heart and Clear Crystal Sequins!! I used the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then Tumbled Glass Distress Ink for the Back of the Circle!!
