Spring time fun

Today I'm showcasing a couple of cards for the Thursday challenge on the Art Impressions blog. The challenge is Spring Celebrations. For me, spring always means new life...flowers, bunnies, warmer days, bird song.
I made two cards, one inspired by bunnies, the other by sakura (cherry blossom) (post 2), both using AI watercolor stamps.
Thanks for looking.

Blossoming Wreath

Use a 4" x 4" square of watercolour paper and Gina K's wreath builder to stamp the floral wreath. I used Marvy and Tombow Markers. When the wreath is complete use water and a brush to get a watercolour effect. (Video tutorials on this effect here, here and here)
On separate paper use a stamping platform (such as Misti or Tim Holtz) to stamp a butterfly/ dragonfly in light grey marker. You may need to stamp it a few times due to texture of paper/ lightness of marker. Colour with Zig Clean color pens and water. For the dragonfly, add glitter and let dry. For the butterfly add fine detail with purple Zig marker but don't add water. Cut them both out and adhere in a pleasing manner. Matt onto card stock and a square ivory card.
