Water Color Bunny

First I'm sharing a Great Video showing this technique for the background for this card:

I tired this a few weeks ago and I think I was using too light of colors.  So this time I chose Tempting Turquoise and Wild Wasabi.  Colored the clear block with markers, spritzed with water and stamped.  Here are 2 attempts, one on water color paper, one on whisper white. 


Still not quite the look I was going for, what did this need?  More Water!  Spritz until the water almost runs off the block.  And you will get the Monet effect that I used on the actual card.


The Bunny is stamped in Black Stazon and Framed with Tempting Turquoise and Wild Wasabi card stock.  A line of Tempting eggs add some additional Easter fun to this simple card!  I cut the sentiment away from the eggs for easier use of this stamp set.  You'll se why tomorrow!
Allow some time for your card stock to dry before stamping and assembly so the corners will lay flat.
