Mixed Media Monday - Stuffed Easter Bunny

*****Join our April Challenge: GET INKY, HERE***** 


Hi Paper Wings fans! Dana here with you starting out the week with some mixed media fun. If you missed the debut of the April Nesting Components Mixed Media Kit, you can find it HERE. I decided to go off-the-page and have created this bunny with the April kit. I also used the fantastic Easter Cling Stamp Set. You can pick up this stamp set 25% off this month!


I used a Martha Stewart Bunny Pattern for this project. I did need more muslin than what was provided in the April Kit. I used the muslin from the kit for the patterned ears and the bow, which leaves me enough muslin for more projects!


I used the Single Dot Border Clear Stamp Set from the April Kit to add a fun pattern to the inside of the bunny ears.

The April Kit contains Golden Regular Gel. I used the gel and an image from the Vintage Easter Clip Art Sheet to add a colorful egg to the center of  my bunny. This type of image transfer is easy and fun and only takes a couple of steps.


Step 1: Cut the pink egg from the Vintage Easter Clip Art Sheet. Gather the bunny body, Golden Regular Gel and a paintbrush.


Step 2: Brush a thin layer of Regular Gel onto the center of the bunny body. Place the clip art image color side down into the gel. Rub a bone folder over the back of the image and set aside to dry.


Step 3: Spritz the clip art image with water and gently run the paper from the muslin. Continue the apply water and rub until all the paper has been removed and the transferred image is revealed.


Step 4: Apply a thin layer of Regular Gel over the image to seal it to the fabric. Let dry.


I used stamps from the Easter Set to add an Easter greeting and small heart to the arms of my bunny.


I also stamped some small roses onto the feet!
