Easter Bunny Encircled in Nature wreath card

 Man, have I been having fun this week playing with some new Online Exclusives products releasing to customers in my online store on March 5.  Be sure to check back then and click the shopping cart to see what's been added to the Online Exclusives section.  

For this card I wanted to show the versatility of the dies for most any occasion.  In this case, Easter, or you could use for Spring by leaving the Easter eggs out.  I started by die cutting the floral images out of Basic White cardstock.  I then water colored them and set them aside to dry before moving on to stamping and coloring my bunny and eggs.   If you would like to watch the video replay, you can rewatch on Facebook here as I'm unable to download my video and upload to YouTube.  So sorry for the inconvenience! FB video replay here:
