A Study in Contrasts: A Spring Coach & Andy Skinner
Filed under Art Projects, Bella Ayers, Giveaways, Mr. Bunny's Egg House, Rubber Stamps, Sale, Steampunk
Design Team Coordinator Miz Bella (Kimberly Ayers) has made a lovely liitle coach (covered in flowers) and we have a bunch of new Andy Skinner transfers (rub-ons) and rubber stamps (and some related paper pads and gears). Plus a related sale and a Giveaway!
And happy spring! It’s early this year (the earliest spring in over 100 years)… all the weedy astronomical details.
Diving in to Bella’s sweet (pink) Spring Tea:
The current kit from Alpha Stamps is Mr. Bunny’s Egg House. It is sooooo cute! Retro bunnies, chicks abound and it just so happened that I had the Mini Cinderella Coach sitting around; already put together begging to be finished.
Initially I had created a seat on each side of the carriage, but when I decided to put in my teenie weenie vintage doll I had to pull out one of the benches, which made room for a tea table full of resin cakes (and a cup of tea).
Nice work, Bella! And be sure to check the Giveaway below, too, for another photo of the flipside of the coach (with a white rabbit… footman?)! See a photo of that vintage porcelain doll below, too.
Read more (and see more photos — and tips, like building the little table inside) in Bella’s blog post and here’s the Spring Tea Supply List!

WOW, So many neat ideas and items!
Instead of cute, I could see this carriage as being owned by a black rabbit who intends to wreak havoc on the nearby village. There would be an “air of Halloween” throughout the scene. And, of course, there would have to be a hero who saves the day.
How fun, love the spring coach!
