Birth of the Easter Bunny

Who knew that the Easter bunny was hatched from an egg?! Well, at least that's how this vintage image depicts it.  I'm loving these "Vintage Easter" cardstock stickers from Karen Foster Designs. They make whipping up beautiful Easter cards a breeze.

A Couple Details:

• I kept the color palette very neutral with just a touch of gold and violet. The Easter bunny is framed with a ring of flowers stamp from Glitz Design, popped up with foam tape and accented with Rock Candy Distress Stickles. I also used violet and gold metallic markers to add touches of colors to the floral frame.

• These gold outline stickers were a recent purchase. I used Alcohol Inks to tone down the bright gold and antique them a bit. I also used a metallic marker to bring the accent color down to the bottom lacy border.

• Creamy hydrangea blossoms with violet glass beads centers and hand-dyed seam binding form a little bouquet accent.
