My Bunny Wishes Card

My Bunny Wishes Card - a thinking of you card with a bunny holding daisies and carrots
My Bunny Wishes Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Bunny Wishes Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the sweet Daisy Carrot Bunny Bouquet Bundle. I used the sentiment “Some Bunny is Thinking of You” from Bunny Daffodil Bundle for my card.

This Bundle includes 6 images:

  • Title 2: Daisy Bunny Bouquet Right (JPG format)
  • Title 3: Daisy Carrot Bunny Bouquet LEFT (JPG format)
  • Title 4: Daisy Carrot Bunny Bouquet Right (JPG format)
  • Title 5 & 6: Sentiment Thoughts of You Make Me Smile (JPG and PNG format)

The Details of My Bunny Wishes Card

Easter is this weekend, but not everyone celebrates it. So, I thought I would make a versatile card that can be used for Easter, Mother’s Day, a birthday or a thinking of you.

First, I coloured this cutie with my Copic markers to match the Bunnies & Blooms papers. Such pretty papers with their muted colours and Easter themes! To add to the muted colours, I brushed some Vintage Photo Ink on the edges of the papers and the sentiment which was die cut with the largest flag die from the Stylish Shapes.

Next, I layered him onto a die cut Old Olive Daisy Circle. Perfect to mirror the daisies in the bunny’s arms! A die cut circle with eggs on it from the paper pack was layered behind him. The “Celebrate” sticker was added with a puffy heart to finish off my focal point.

A couple of puffy stickers on either side of my sentiment tied in the muted colour scheme and added interest.

Standing Double Z-Fold Card

My Standing Double Z-Fold Card - An Easter card with a bunny in a wreath
My Standing Double Z-Fold Card

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my Standing Double Z-Fold Card using the Celebrate Spring February 2026 Paper Pumpkin Kit by Stampin’ Up! I made 7 alternative cards including 6 fun folds and one regular card. I have included a photo of all the cards at the end of this post and links for more details.

The Details of My Standing Double Z-Fold Card

For this alternative card using the February 2026 Celebrate Spring Paper Pumpkin Kit, I made a stand up double z-fold card. Again, this is another card that I haven’t made before but thought it would be fun to use the floral oval for it. Plus, it looked like an Easter Egg when closed!

Card Laid Flat
My Standing Double Z-Fold Card

I used from the Arches Dies the largest one for the Shy Shamrock base, third largest one for the Lemon Lolly and the fifth largest one for the Pretty in Pink. I watched a video by Jill Casteel Blanchett from Green Thumb Stampers to help with the process.

For the Shy Shamrock base, I folded it in half and used the Arch Die to cut it out, but I  made sure that the straight bottom of the die was hanging off the card stock. This kept them attached. Then, I folded the bottom arch in half to create my first z-fold.

Next, I die cut the Lemon Lolly arches and adhered them to the Sky Shamrock card base.

For the Pretty in Pink piece, I did the same as the Shy Shamrock, but I made sure that the arch part was where the die hung off the edge of the card stock. Then, I turned the die around and ran the card stock through the arch die only at the top to get a finished arch. I folded one of the arches in half to create the second z-fold.

A Basic White arch was added to the back of the card to write a message.

All that was left was to add the twine, ephemera and sequins to my card.

My WV Alternative Card

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing My WV Alternative Card using the Celebrate Spring February 2026 Paper Pumpkin Kit by Stampin’ Up! I made 7 alternative cards including 6 fun folds and one regular card. I have included a photo of all the cards at the end of this post and links for more details.

The Details of My WV Alternative Card

For this alternative card, I wanted to use the card base with the square and build it up which led me to a WV fun fold. I haven’t made this fold before, but I thought it would work perfectly for my card!

A Fun Fold Easter Card
The Front of My WV Fun Fold Card

First, I scored my Sky Shamrock card base according to the measurements below. Then, I trimmed apart my green card from the Kit keeping the Square Printed Front for inside and two strips from the back of the card for the panels. I embossed these two strips and two Basic White strips with the Beautiful Pattern 3D Embossing Folder and adhered them to my card base. For the Square Printed Front, I trimmed it down on all sides so that the square remained in the centre.

Next, I stamped the sentiments in Shy Shamrock on two of the square sentiment tags that come in the Kit. I used a retired stamp set for the front since I wanted a religious sentiment and stamped Happy Easter inside from the stamp set in the Kit. Since the square sentiment tags are not exactly square, I had to create a small custom card for them. Lol!

Card Standing Up

For the small card, I centred it in the Square Printed Front on the card base before adding glue. Then, I lifted the front of the smaller card added glue where I needed it and closed the left flaps to adhere it in place. Next, I added glue to the other side of the small card, closed all the flaps and adhered it to the front of my card base. This allowed me to have my card positioned perfectly when the card was closed.

All that was left was to add the ephemera and sequins.

Supplies for My WV Alternative Card:

Stamps: February 2026 Celebrate Spring Paper Pumpkin Kit, Indescribable Gift Stamp Set (Retired)

Inks: Shy Shamrock (In Kit)

The Details of My Centre-Step Alternative Card

For this alternative card using the February 2026 Celebrate Spring Paper Pumpkin Kit, I made my favourite fun fold, a centre-step! I have included a downloadable Centre-Step Template at the end of this post.

I had a piece of the back of the Balmy Blue card base left that was the perfect size for my centre panel. With the basket in place, you did not notice the missing flowers. So, instead, I added the flowers to the side panels by trimming down the card front. 

For the bottom panel, I used part of the envelope flap and decided to use it to add visual interest.

All the panels were matted in Basic White to tie in the sentiment piece. The sentiment was stamped in the Sky Shamrock ink provided.

All that was left was to add the basket with the eggs, daffodils, sequins and twine.

Secret Slider Alternative Card

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my Secret Slider Alternative Card using the Celebrate Spring February 2026 Paper Pumpkin Kit by Stampin’ Up! I made 7 alternative cards including 6 fun folds and one regular card. I have included all the other cards at the end of this post.

The Details of My Secret Slider Alternative Card

I have been wanting to create a secret slider card and decided that the basket would make a great focal point on the left. Of course, I just had to have the bunny in the basket holding an Easter egg! He filled in the space nicely!

A Spring Card with a bunny in a basket
Front of My Secret Slider Card

I stamped the grass in Shy Shamrock on a leftover piece of Balmy Blue card front even though you can’t see the flowers. Then, I stamped the egg and the sentiment tag provided.

Once the stamping was done, it was time to build the card. So, I used one of the Lemon Lolly card bases and cut it apart to create my card background. You could use a whole Lemon Lolly card base, but I wanted to use part of it for my mat on the front. 

Then, I scored the Sky Shamrock card stock according to the measurements below.

I decorated the front flap with the Lemon Lolly mat followed by the Balmy Blue. Then, I added my focal point of the basket with the bunny.

For the inside, I used the Easter Joy DSP to decorate the flaps. Then, I scored a leftover Balmy Blue card back according to the measurements below. I stamped the sentiment on the Basic White and added it to the Balmy Blue. The small flap was adhered to the left panel near the fold. Once that was done the right panel was adhered at the top and bottom with the sentiment piece slotted in between.

The finishing touch was to add the daffodils, twine and sequins to the front of my card.

My Other Alternative Cards

Two cards I created using the February 2026 Celebrate Spring Paper Pumpkin Kit were easel cards. I scored the fronts at 2-1/8”. For one, I followed the instructions and just added a strip of envelop with a Shy Shamrock mat for the inside stopper. For the other, I used the floral oval and added some stamped Easter eggs in matching colours.

For another alternative card, I create a regular card using the leftover pieces from the other cards. I used the Arch Dies to create a fun focal point that allowed the Easter eggs to be “hidden” amongst the grass and flowers. For the extra eggs, I used the leftover frame from the punched out eggs to trace the outline of the eggs and fussy cut them out. I used a piece of leftover envelope flap for one, Lemon Lolly card stock for the other and a stamped egg from the Kit for the final one.

My Welcome Home Card

My Welcome Home Card - a bunny family looking at their new house.
My Welcome Home Card

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing My Welcome Home Card using the Storybook Friends Bundle includes the Storybook Friends Stamp Set and the Storybook Friends Dies by Stampin’ Up! A friend just moved into their new home, and I wanted to send a Welcome to your new home card. So, I thought the Storybook Friends Bundle with a cute bunny family would be sweet!

The Details of My Welcome Home Card

For my card, I thought my favourite fun fold, a centre-step, would work well with the family on the bottom panel and the framed house above them. But first, I coloured the bunnies with my Stampin’ Blends to match my DSP colours. Then, I die cut them out with the matching dies in the Bundle.

I was strategic in selecting the house from the DSP for my wood frame. I placed my die on the DSP and moved it around to see which house would work without the other houses interfering with it. When I found my house, I use a pencil to mark the inside edge of the frame die. This allowed me to use my Paper Snips to quickly cut a rough piece of DSP without needing the whole frame die cut out and wasting paper. Once that was done, I used the die and lined up my pencil mark to die cut out just the house.

Next, to create my “home”, I used the DSP that looked like wallpaper for the centre panel behind the framed house. A strip of the Timeless Plaid DSP was perfect for the “rug” on which the bunnies were standing.

To decorate my side panels, I used the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder and brushed Crumb Cake ink along the edges to bring out the embossing. I also brushed Crumb Cake on the house frame to bring out the grain in the Wood Textured Specialty Paper.

The sentiments were stamped in Lost Lagoon and die cut out with one of the flags from the Stylish Shapes Dies.

As a finishing touch to my card, I added some Antique Pearls to my card on the different panels.

My Storybook Easter Card

My Storybook Easter Card - an Easter card with a scene of animals celebrating Easter
My Storybook Easter Card

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing My Storybook Easter Card using the Storybook Friends Bundle which includes the Storybook Friends Stamp Set and the Storybook Friends Dies with Storybook Moments Specialty Designer Series Paper by Stampin’ Up! I thought this DSP with its die-cut designs would make a fast and fun Easter card for my in-laws! In fact, my Mother-in-law loved Peter Rabbit. So, I knew she would get a kick out of my card!

The Details of My Storybook Easter Card

For my card, I thought a double z-fold card would create a perfect Easter scene. So, I used the soil-shaped die from the Storybook Garden Patch Dies to create the ground panel. I very carefully lined up the die three times to cut it along the top of the 11” x 1 ½” piece of Crumb Cake.

Top View of Card
Top View of Double Z-Fold Card

Next, I embossed it with the retired Textured Embossing Folder to give the ground some interest and to cover up where the soil-shaped die left indents in the card stock. Once that was done, I brushed Crumb Cake Ink with my Blending Brush along the edges to make it look more like dirt. I popped up my ground piece with dimensionals on the front and on the last panel.

To make the carrots, I used the spade from the Storybook Garden Patch Dies and trimmed off the handle part. Then, I added the Old Olive die cut leaves. I love that the soil-shaped die has cuts in the ground that the carrots can be inserted to look like they are growing out of the ground!

For the front panel of the card, I used the Storybook Friends Dies to die cut a house from the DSP and frame it with the Wood Textured Specialty Paper. Since I wanted to add the pre-cut fence and ground infront of the house, I made sure that the house I picked was towards to top of the frame. I added some Lost Lagoon DSP that reminded me of wallpaper behind my frame.

For my background scene on the other two panels, I made sure that I cut the DSP to create a continuous scene.

I love how easy it is to decorate my card with the die-cut designs! I added the momma bunny and child bunny to the front of the z-fold. Then, I added the mouse carrying water to the middle panel of the z-fold. And, finally, I added the squirrel with the rake to the third panel. I popped up the bunnies, but adherred the mouse and squirrel directly to the ground piece. When the card is closed, the carrots hide the mouse and squirrel from view. How cool is that!

Side View of Card

For the popped up sentiment, I used one of the stitched banners from the Stylish Shapes Dies to die cut my Lost Lagoon Easter Greetings. A die-cut butterfly was added for whimsy.

The finishing touch was to add three Antique Pearls with two on the front and one beside the sentiment.

I placed a Basic White piece on the back for the message.

My Easter Greetings Card

My Easter Greetings Card - an Easter card with an Angel holding flowers
My Easter Greetings Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Easter Greetings Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the sweet Angel Wishes. This purchase includes 2 Images with Angel facing left and right.

The Details of My Easter Greetings Card

For my card, I decided to create a mini slimline Easter card with this sweetie! So, I knew that I wanted to colour her with my Copic markers in soft pastel Easter colours of purples, pinks, yellows and greens. For the purple, I decided to use my BVs instead of my traditional Vs to match the papers. Another big departure for me is that I coloured her wings in B45/B41. I usually use much lighter colours like B000/B00 or BG10/BG11. My colour choices were out of my comfort zone, but I was pleased with how she turned out!

For the designer paper, I used two different paper packs. The butterfly paper in the background was from Spring Whispers and the florals was from Sweet Tweets both by The Paper Boutique. The Spring Whispers Coloured Card Collection made it easy to match my papers!

To anchor my Angel, I added a stitched circle and another circle mat. I had debated about using the Tulip Doily for my card, but decided it was too busy. However, the inside circle die from the Tulip Doily was the perfect fit for the mat of my stitched circle. I offset the circle and trimmed off the excess.

The sentiment was already on my desk leftover from anther card. It was from the Easter Bunny Trio Bundle. I added a stitched die cut behind my sentiment with the same paper to tie in the floral paper behind my focal point.

To add some sparkle, I used my Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen on her wings and the ruffle of her dress. To create a soft look, I smooshed my finger on the ink before it dried.

The finishing touch was a scattering of butterflies to match the butterflies in the designer paper.

Easter Bunny Trio Card

Easter Bunny Trio Card - 3 bunnies sitting on Easter eggs hanging from a tree
Easter Bunny Trio Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! Easter is coming! So, I am sharing my Easter Bunny Trio Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Conie Fong Art & Design using the Easter Bunny Trio Bundle. This purchase includes 8 Images:

  • Easter Bunny Trio with Branch PNG
  • Easter Bunny Double PNG (this image includes 2 bunnies hanging on eggs as shown)
  • Easter Bunny Trio PNG (this image does not have the branch)
  • Easter Bunny 1, 2, and 3 PNG (Three individual image of the bunnies (right, middle, left) with longer string for layering images)
  • Sentiment: Some Bunny Loves You – PNG
  • Sentiment: Happy Easter – PNG

The Details of My Easter Bunny Trio Card

I had so much fun colouring with my Copic markers the bunnies’ fur in different colours and their eggs in Easter colours of pink, purple and green. I knew that I wanted the flowers in the tree to look like cherry blossoms in pinks with yellow centres.

For my card, I decided to create an Easter scene that is bursting from the frame. Literally! Lol! So, I die cut some stitched clouds and brushed some Balmy Blue Ink along the top edges of the clouds and where the two clouds over lap. This allowed the frame to pop out from the clouds and gave the clouds dimension.

Once the clouds were done, I picked out some DSP that had sky and clouds. The clouds on the DSP have a UV coating for a fun shine!

Next, was to find the perfect frame for my focal point of the bunnies. I decided to go with a frame smaller than my scene to give my card a fun whimsical feel. I tucked the top of the branch underneath the frame, but had the rest of the branch, flowers and bunnies poking out.

To add sparkle to my card, I used my Wink of Stella on the ribbons and Clear Star Gelly Roll Pen on the accents, like the polka dots, flowers and scallops on the eggs. For the bunnies’ noses, I used a Black Gelly Roll Pen to make them stand out.

A finishing touch was to add a scattering of brass butterflies around my card.

Hello Spring Alternative Cards

Hello Spring Alternative Cards - 4 cards with floral theme
Hello Spring Alternative Cards

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing my Hello Spring Alternative Cards using the Hello Spring February 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit by Stampin’ Up! I am so over winter and ready for Spring. So, these cards helped to put me in the mood for new growth and warmer weather. I had so much fun with this Kit that I made 4 cards including a slimline quad fold pocket card and a triple panel bridge card!

But, first, here are the three cards that the kit makes. Perfect for this time of year in their bright cheery colours!

3 Cards with Floral Theme
Hello Spring February 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit

The Details of My Hello Spring Alternative Cards

My Slimline Quad Fold Card

For my first alternative card, I thought it would be fun to create a slimline card with pockets into which the seed cards would fit. I even used the Grow with Love Dies to cut down one of the envelopes that came in the kit to create an envelope for my Chives card.

A slim card with floral theme
My Slimline Quad Fold Card

For the front, I used the leftover pieces from two envelopes (see Card 4 for second leftover piece) to create some interest behind my Bronze Foil Piece. I thought a bouquet of herbs sprouting from the sentiment would be fun! I used a 1 ½” circle punch to punch out a Basic Beige circle from the Bronze Foil Piece and matted it behind the sentiment. Since the herbs were in front of it, you couldn’t see the missing part. Finally, I added a bee from the Spring Is in the Air Dies.

For the inside, I used two card bases to line my pockets. More bees and honeycomb from the Spring Is in the Air Dies decorated the inside along with a sentiment.

The finishing touch was the linen wrapped three times around the card to hold it closed and tied in a bow.

Measurements:

  • Basic White Card Base:
    • 8” x 12” – scored at 3”, 6”, 9” along 12” side and 5 ½” along 8” side
    • Scraps for bees and honeycomb
  • Blue Card Base (3 pieces):
    • 2-7/8” x 3 ½”
  • Green Card Base (3 pieces):
    • 2-3/8” x 2-7/8”
  • Envelope Leftovers (2 pieces):
    • 5” x 2-3/8”
  • Other Pieces from Kit:
    • Herb Precut Paper Pieces
    • Herb Cards
    • Bronze Foil Piece
    • Sentiment Pieces
    • Linen Thread
    • Seed Packet Envelope

My Triple Panel Card

For my second alternative card using the Hello February 2025 Paper Pumpkin Kit, I made a triple panel card. I love it when the card is closed, and the insides are hidden creating a nice surprise as the recipient opens the card!

Another floral card
My Triple Panel Card

So, I cut the green card base at 1” on either side to create the struts to which the bridge will be adhered. The larger Bronze Foil Piece from the kit fitted the bridge perfectly! Then, using the scraps from the precut paper pieces, I stamped and die cut the flower heads and another bee from the Spring Is in the Air Dies.

For the middle panel, I punched a 1 ½” circle from another Bronze Foil Piece and layered it behind my sentiment and the mint precut paper piece.

Middle Panel of Card

For the final panel, I stamped the textured stamped multiple time in Petunia Pop on Petunia Pop card stock for a tone-on-tone look. Then, I layered the smaller Bronze Foil Piece with the basil precut paper piece leaving room for a message.

My Happy Easter Card

For my next alternative card, I decided to use the green card base scrap left over from another card. This created a nice band on the left side.

For my focal point, I layered several elements from the Kit. Again, I used my 1 ½” punch to punch a circle from the Bronze Foil Piece making sure to have it on the left side and hidden by the Chives card.

Next, I stamped and die cut the flower heads and another bee from the Spring Is in the Air Dies. I just love these dies, especially that bee!

Measurements:

  • Green Card base:
    • 2 ½” x 4 ¼”
  • Basic White:
    • Scraps for Bees and Flower Heads
  • Other Pieces from Kit:
    • Blue Card Base
    • Chives Card
    • Bronze Foil Piece
    • Sentiment Pieces
    • Linen Thread

My Happy Easter Pocket Card

For my last alternative card, I decided it would be fun to die cut another mini envelope from the seed packet envelopes (use the scraps from this one for the Slimline Quad Fold Card) and have the herbs sprouting from it.

Another Easter card
My Happy Easter Pocket Card

So, I used the used the Grow with Love Dies to create my envelope. The Beige fastener was die cut from leftover scraps of the envelope.

I stamped the sentiment and added a Bubble Bath mat to it. To match the mat, I die cut another butterfly using the Spring Is in the Air Dies, but this time in Bubble Bath.

I decided to only stamp and die cut one flower hear to give the image dimension to it.

Measurements:

  • Basic White:
    • Scraps for Flower Head
  • Bubble Bath:
    • 1 ½” Circle
    • Scraps for Bee

Happiness is Homegrown Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! Spring has finally arrived here! So, I am sharing my Happiness is Homegrown Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Paper Nest Dolls using Little Chick Emma

The Details of My Happiness is Homegrown Card

Don’t you just love Emma in her patchwork dress! So, sweet! I coloured this cutie with my Copic markers in Spring colours to match my papers.

For my card, I decided to use the Simple Stories paper since it had a farm theme, and I loved the soft colours! I had some scraps with chickens left over from a previous project, but not a lot. So, I created two squares and placed them in opposite corners on the blue/green polka dotted card base. Great way to use scraps!

Next, I added a die cut white fence to add some interest to the background.

The sentiment and banner were from the matching Simple Stories Bits & Pieces. The needlepoint look was perfect for Emma with her patchwork dress! An adhesive-backed pink heart on the banner mirrored the pinks in Emma’s dress.

Finally, for embellishments, I added more adhesive-backed hearts and flowers in addition to Star Dust Stickles to the hearts on Emma’s dress.

My Happy Easter Tag

My Happy Easter Tag

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! Who’s ready for Easter? There is always time for one last Easter tag! So, I am sharing My Happy Easter Tag as my Design Team Inspiration for Paper Nest Dolls using Egg Coloring Lulu

The Details of My Happy Easter Tag

I coloured this cutie with my Copic markers in Easter colours to match my Easter paper and card stock.

For my tag, I decided to use several Easter dies including a pink Easter Egg and the reverse Happy Easter words. I also added a purple floral border behind Lulu to make her pop and give some visual interest behind her. I used paper snips to trim the edges of the border piece to fit my round corners of my tag.

Next, I went with a Polka Dot Tulle ribbon since it reminded me of Easter tulle. The Happy Easter ribbon in purple was a perfect colour for the theme of my card! I used some Bermuda Bay Baker’s Twine to tie this all together.

Finally, to add some sparkle, I used Star Dust Stickles on Lulu’s heart on her smock and Wink of Stella on her egg. As well, a scattering of Glossy Dots that matched my colour scheme were placed around the sentiment.

My Easter Egg Hunt Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! Easter is just around the corner. So, I am sharing My Easter Egg Hunt Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Paper Nest Dolls using Lulu with Easter Basket

The Details of My Easter Egg Hunt Card

I coloured this cutie with my Copic markers in Easter colours to match my Easter paper. I just love these soft colours!

For my card, I decided to use the gorgeous Tulip Dies as a backdrop for Lulu. I just bought these dies and was eager to use them! So, I went with white card stock and a soft pink that has some texture on it so as not to detract from Lulu. The sentiment “Easter Egg Hunt” was from the Welcome Easter Paper Pad and perfect for my theme.

To decorate my card, I added die cut Easter eggs that matched the colours of Lulu’s eggs in her basket. Next, I added several Brass Butterflies floating from the focal point.

Finally, to add some sparkle, I used Wink of Stella on Lulu’s eggs, hair bow and basket bow.

My Rainy-Day Easter Cards 

Two Easter cards. One with a bunny and the other with a turtle on a bridge
My Rainy-Day Easter Cards

Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing My Rainy-Day Easter Cards using the Playing in the Rain Bundle by Stampin’ Up! This Bundle includes the Rain Stamp Set and the Playing in the Rain Dies.

The Details of My Cards

For my card, I decided to use the Playing in the Rain Dies to cut out the different animals from the DSP figuring you could use either the rabbit or the turtle for an Easter card. I love the glossy coating on this DSP. It adds a nice shine to the animals to make them stand out! The floral piece really makes the animals pop and creates a fun field of flowers behind them.

The Bunny Easter Card

The Fabulous Frames Dies created a perfect vignette for my scene with the bridge, cloud and the grasses popping out of the frame!

To add a bit of interest to the Balmy Blue mat, I embossed it with the Raindrops Embossing Folder.

The clouds were stamped in Balmy Blue, and die cut out. I then used the different sizes for my cards.

The Turtle Easter Card

The sentiment was stamped in Soft Suede and punched out with the Double Oval Punch. The Old Olive scallop mat was punched from the same punch. I love that you get two punches for one!

My Hoppy Easter Card 

An Easter Card with a girl with bunny ears on pulling a wagon with two bunnies in it.
My Hoppy Easter Card

Hello Crafty Friends! It’s Laurie here! I am sharing My Hoppy Easter Card as my Design Team Inspiration Card for Paper Nest Dolls using Bunny Wagon

The Details of My Card

I coloured this cutie with my Copic markers in bright Easter colours to match my Easter paper.

For my card, I decided to create several flags using the different papers in varying sizes at the top left and bottom right. I used my Punch to create my flags in the different widths.

The white background already had a texture to it, but I used a ruler and a multi liner to draw lines along the edges to add even more interest.

To highlight my focal point, I added a stitched circle in pink behind the Bunny Wagon.

The sentiment was stamped, and die cut with a stitched banner die which was cut off at the edge to match the other flags.

Star Dust Stickles was added to the heart on her dress. The only other embellishment was a scattering of sequins.
