Oh I love that series of Cadbury Easter egg commercials! All the animals with bunny ears at Easter Bunny try outs always puts a smile on my face each year and has me hunting for those cream-filled chocolate eggs in the stores.<\/p>\n

<\/a>For this Easter card, I used the Diemond Dies Teddy Bear Buildable Die Set<\/a><\/span> and built the bear from kraft, black (nose and paw pads) and white (ears, muzzle, belly and eyes) card stock. For all the kraft pieces, I inked the edges with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Vintage Photo<\/a><\/span>. For the white pieces that I wanted a hint of color on, I inked the edges with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Antique Linen<\/a><\/span>. Then for the inner ear white pieces that I blended on some Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Spun Sugar<\/a><\/span>. Oh and I added a tiny bit of aqua card stock for the colored parts of the eyes.<\/p>\n

For accents to the bear, I added white highlights with a Signo Uniball White Gel Pen<\/a><\/span>, which I thought really brought the teddy to life. I also added slightly rosy cheeks with Pale Pink and Pink Prismacolor Colored Pencils. The piece de resistance are the fun bunny ears that are from a Jolee’s Boutique Bunny Ears sticker set<\/a><\/span> I had in my stash from last spring.<\/p>\n

The card front was made with scraps from the Doodlebug Lovebirds 6 x 6 paper pad (retired)<\/a><\/span>. I added a delicate crocheted ribbon for a “ground” for the bear to sit on. Then I added a speech bubble with “BWOK, BWOK BWOK” hand written on it for the faux chicken sounds that the bear would make at the try outs (LOL). Lastly I added pink gems to the speech bubble and flowing from the bears mouth to the speech bubble for extra sparkle.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Continuing with my desire to decorate the inside of cards, for the card liner I used more Doodlebug Lovebirds scraps as well as a little sentiment cut apart that says “Hippity Hoppity Easter’s On Its Way!” from the Doodlebug Easter Express 6 x 6 paper pad<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n
