Fusion Card Challenge - Easter Gnomes

Hi friends! While most of us are spending more time at home I thought you might like to check out a few challenges! This one called GNOMES begins today at Fusion Card Challenge! You'll love this one because there are three ways to play.. you can play along with the sketch, be inspired by the photo, or FUSE them together and play with BOTH!
I'm always drawn to the photo first! I thought the row of gnomes in colorful colors and bunny ears were adorable. You've got an inspirational starting point if you have a gnome in your collection.. but if you don't? No worries! Play along with the sketch! If you're really feeling clever today you can FUSE them both TOGETHER! 
I started by cutting the Simon Says Stamp Large Gnome in a mix of pastels and brights inspired by the photo. I layered them on a Stitched Whirl Background.
The sentiment is from Reverse Confetti's Spring Bunnies stamp set, and the colorful eggs are from Poppystamps Folk Decorated Eggs die set. 
I added the bunny ears to the gnomes using the Simon Says Peeking Bunny and tucking the ears under the raised bodies of the gnomes. 
Now it's your turn! Now it's your turn! Are you ready to play? I wonder how you will interpret the photo! Maybe you need a little more inspiration? Check out designs from the rest of the team. Just click on their names below to jump to their blogs.
