Wasn't Stef's colour challenge last week a lot of fun? Thank you for all the pretty entries.
This week, Elizabeth has a Clean and Simple challenge for us on the theme of ... bunny!
Some challenges are more challenging than others. It turned out that I'd sold my one set with a bunny in it. After much hunting through stamps and dies and stacks of paper, I found a tiny bunny die in the retired On the Farm bundle. What could I build around that and in a Clean and Simple style?
The answer to that involved more exploration of the retired set shelf. I'd kept the retired All for Baby bundle because it's the perfect baby set. The current Cutest Onesie bundle is like a pared down version of it.
So armed with these bundles and some DSP stacks in Neutrals and 2024-6 In Colors, I went to my desk and started my creative engine. This is where things ended up....
The bunnies and hangers are cut from Crumb Cake. The pink card is Pretty in Pink and the blue uses Misty Moonlight.
I hope you have better luck in finding a bunny on your craft shelves! Don't forget that in addition to the bunny, you need to keep your style CAS: minimal layers, lots of clean white space and few embellishments.
The rest of the team and I look forward to seeing what you create. 😀

ReplyDeleteJan... what a perfect way to incorporate bunnies! and such great cards for your stash! Hope your Easter was fabulous.
ReplyDeleteHow resourceful are you?! That tiny bunny was a great find - these his 'n' hers onesies are just fab!
ReplyDeleteI love these onesies, Jan and aren't you the smart one to come up with this design! It's good to hold onto those retired things that you think you'll use in the future, and they certainly served you well with these darling baby cards!
ReplyDeleteI love that you pulled out some retired goodies to make these non-Easter cards, Jan!! Those little onesies are just adorable! Very clever and creative! Hope you had a great Easter!
ReplyDeleteJan, these are adorable. I love that you showcased them in two different color ways, too. CAS perfection.
