I began by trimming Distress Watercolor card to be slightly smaller than the gift bag and coloured using my favourite smooshing technique and a custom blend ink pad of Antique Linen and Old Paper Distress inks and Speckled Egg and Frayed Burlap Distress Oxide inks and yes, it is OK to mix the different inks on one ink pad.
I inked the images from Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Field Notes with Rusty Hinge, Peeled Paint and Frayed Burlap Distress Oxide inks and stamped randomly on the background.
Because I wanted a more vivid colour, I applied Peeled Paint Distress Archival ink using a mini round blending tool through Simon Says Stamp Clovers 6" x 6" Stencil
I inked the script background stamp from Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Entomology with Rusty Hinge Distress Oxide, held the stamp in my hands, stamped randomly on the background and added splatters of Frayed Burlap Distress Oxide ink.
I coloured panels of Distress Watercolor card, trimmed to fit my Tim Holtz/Sizzix Sidekick with Twisted Citron, Peeled Paint, Rusty Hinge and Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide inks and fixed Sizzix Adhesive Sheets on the reverse.
I die-cut the bunny and carrots from Distress Watercolor card and the coloured card using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Carrot Bunny Thinlits and assembled.
I added torn strips of brown Idea-ology Classic KraftStock to create the soil for my garden scene, and left the top edges of the strips without adhesive. I die-cut the letters 3 times from Distress Watercolor card and once from the Spiced Marmalade coloured card using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Alphanumeric Stretch Upper Thinlits, layered to create a drop highlight and fixed in place. I fixed the carrots under the bunny's arms with Distress Collage Medium and fixed him to the panel using Sizzix Foam Adhesive.
I trimmed the remaining carrots and tucked them under the strips of brown Kraft Stock. I covered the bunny and added splatters of Ground Espresso Distress Paint.
To complete the sentiment, I die-cut brown Idea-ology Classic KraftStock using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Alphanumeric Tiny Type Lower Thinlits
