Impression Obsession “Think Spring” Challenge

Good Thursday morning.  Welcome to the Impression Obsession Design Team “Think Spring” challenge. Could there be anything sweeter than a bunch of bunnies hopping around in the tulips.  I love the new Easter Cutout Square and think it pairs perfectly with the Bunny Set, Grass Border and the Butterfly Set.  I used cutout square  and bunnies together a couple of weeks ago creating an all white silhouette scene. For today’s project I cut all the images out using watercolor paper and colored using distress reinkers mixed with water and a brush. 

I cut the images, dampened the paper with my mister to help spread the inks and watercolored.  I cut a couple extra tulips to have to fill in the scene.

I applied rolled up double stick tape to the back of the Easter frame and attached it to a piece of  blue cardstock.  I cut and assembled the double mounted frame with thin strips of mounting tape, attached the grass border to the back of the frame.  I applied another layer of of mounting tape to the back of the frame and attached it over the tree frame. I attached the whole framed piece to the card base with ATG adhesive.KC Impression Obsession Easter Cutout Square 2 centert

I attached the bunnies in the scene with mounting tape and then tucked the extra tulips around in the scene attaching with glossy accents.  I added a couple yellow butterflies for the finishing touch.

Here’s a closer view to see the level of dimension in the scene.  I think it is so cute.
