Somebunny Sweet

Hello and welcome to the next card in the Easter card series. I enjoyed using the stamps to create my own background and using markers to color the images. Lots of color and some die-cutting too. Take a look at the project below and let me know what you think. Create the card base using Daffodil Delight card stock. Score the card at 4 1/4". Cut a Whisper White card stock panel to do the stamping on. Stamp and color the images using the Stampin' Write markers. I also die-cut an oval circle from Daffodil Delight card stock and a plain circle from Whisper White card stock. The grass was die-cut from the coordinating die and adhered to the plain. I stamped and colored the bunny and carrots and then popped them up on dimensionals and attached to the grass. All of this was then popped up on Scotch 3D foam tape and centered on the card front. For the inside of the card I stamped Happy Easter. I hope you have enjoyed today's project and will check back often

Easter Treat card

A Clean and simple card that is great for a child. I used the Sale-a-bration stamp set Delicate Details (no longer available) to make the border on the card panel and then because I wanted to use most of the stamps in the Basket Bunch stamp set, I stamped them in the shape of a cross. I thought it was a great solution to what I was trying to do. Take a look at the project below and let me know what you think   . Additional supplies: ATG tape runner, Ken Oliver's Stick-It, Fun Foam and clear blocks 1. Create a card base from Very Vanilla card stock to measure 5½” x 8½” and score at 4¼”. 2.

Cut the focal panel from another piece of Very Vanilla card stock to measure 3¾” x 4” and stamp the images in a cross design.
