A TRIO OF BUNNIES

April 16, 2019

There’s lots happening in the Stampin’ Up! world these days along with the approach of Easter weekend. So what better way to highlight one aspect of Easter than this cute trio of bunnies.

The package of Gingham Gala Designer paper was sitting on my table, so I used a strip of the Lemon Lime Twist pattern as a background for that trio of bunnies.

Each bunny was stamped with the Jet Black Stazon ink and then the bows around their necks were coloured with our Stampin’ Write Markers. A few strategically placed Frosted Flower embellishments finished this card off perfectly! The 2019 Occasions Catalogue is still going strong and that’s where you will find the Gingham Gala paper and those pretty embellishments.

Here’s the full list of products used.

SIMPLE EASTER GIFT BAGS

Have you used the Gift Bag Punch Board lately? Well I haven’t so brought it out to create a couple of cute bags for our Easter dinner.

These are just the start – I have 4 more to create but these helped me to remember how to use the punch board. I used a piece of the Twinkle Twinkle Designer Series paper that measured 10″ x 5″ to make the small sized bag. Then I cut out the first letter of each child’s name and tied them on with a piece of the Nature’s Twine. Now all I have to do is fill them with some easter treats and they’re good to go!

Here’s a great video of how to use the Gift Bag Punch Board from Stampin’ Up! Make sure to save it so you can use it over and over again!

Here’s the short list of everything I used to create these cute little bags.

Twinkle Twinkle Designer Series Paper [146284] $15.00	Brights 6″ X 6″ (15.2 X 15.2 Cm) Designer Series Paper [146964] $15.00	Coastal Cabana 8-1/2″ X 11″ Card Stock [131297] $11.50	Nature’s Twine [146342] $12.25

Tear & Tape Adhesive [138995] $9.50	Stampin’ Trimmer [126889] $41.00	Bone Folder [102300] $9.50

Now is the time to stock up on your favourite Designer papers and they will be going away very soon.

Happy Stamping!

BUSHY-TAILED EASTER GREETINGS

Easter, Techniques

Easter is a little later this year but time does fly by so I had fun creating this Easter card with a bushy-tailed little creature bringing greetings!

LOL, isn’t he a cutie? I used Stampin’ Blends to bring out his cuteness and added those tiny Heart Epoxy Droplets to show the love! Of course the Fable Friends Cling stamp set has several cute critters to help send Easter greetings.

TIP: Our Stampin’ Blends are perfect for adding colour to the epoxy embellishments.

The Paper Players posted a Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge and I picked the last line in order to play along.
