Tatty Teddy Easter Card

I unearthed this old Tatty Teddy wood mounted rubber stamp recently, it's been in my stash for years, and decided that it would be perfect as the focal point on an Easter card, so I inked it up in London Fog Memento and got colouring with my Promarkers.  I used my Xcut egg shaped nesting dies to cut out the topper and it's mat.
 The gorgeous papers are First Edition, Sweet Escapes, some of which are foiled or glittered, the rest are double sided, all are beautiful!  I inked all the edges with Hickory Smoke Distress Ink for definition.
To embellish, I added some lilac lace, lilac ribbon with a matching multi loop bow which I topped with a Hobby House dazzler, a sentiment stamped with a stamp from a Hobby Craft Easter stamp set, some lilac gems, and some flowers made with a selection of Sue Wilson and Heartfelt Creations dies, along with a Woodware punch for the foliage.
