There are so many great stamp sets in this release, but Hoppy Spring has my heart.  This bunny is just the cutest! 

This cutie was colored with Copics and fussy cut out.  If you do not like to fussy cut, there is a Hoppy Spring die set available as well.  I layered him on top of the wreath from the Flower Garden Stamp Set that had been colored with Copics and fussy cut as well.  

I wanted a mixed media background.  I started by watercoloring a light turquoise background with my all time favorite, Ken Oliver Color Bursts.  Once that was dry, I used the snss Grunge Dots Stencil and translucent embossing paste over the watercolored background.  I let that dry while I worked on other parts of the card. 

Once dry, I watercolored more turquoise and darker blue Color Bursts over and around the stenciled area.  Once dry, I adhered a sentiment strip across the card (You can see how I made the green strip HERE where I made the same panel in a coral color).  Next, I layered the wreath and bunny with foam tape over the sentiment strip. The sentiment is from the Love Wordfetti Stamp Set.   A few Simon Says Stamp Moonshine Sequins finish the card. 

I am linking this guy up to Addicted to Stamps and More- Make Your Mark and ModSquad Challenge- Springtime Bunnies.

The next card uses the same adorable bunny image, but is a baby card.  

One can never go wrong with plaid for a baby card.  I added a bit of detail at the top of the plaid panel by cutting a narrow strip of plaid paper off the top and then backing it with grey cs, leaving a narrow border along the top.  The strip was then popped up on foam tape.  I added a triangle of the same grey cs at the bottom of the plaid paper.  

The bunny was colored with Copics and fussy cut out.  I stamped the square from the Just Be Stamp Set in blue and fussy cut it out; I used it to ground the bunny.  The sentiment, from the Sweet Little Lamb Stamp Set, was stamped in grey on the plaid paper, using my MISTI to allow me to stamp multiple times for a crisp sentiment. 

I am linking up these cards to Darnell's  Twofer Card Challenge- 'Your Choice'.
