A Very Happy Easter!

By KariV on April 12, 2020 in Easter, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Happy Easter, friends! Today I have a cute Easter card to share featuring more cute bunnies. These are from Heffy Doodle and they are some of my favorites!

This time, the bunnies are hiding eggs AND carrots! Don’t they look like they are having fun!?

I colored them up with Copic markers and used the same yellow plaid paper for the background and the die cut sentiment (also from Heffy Doodle).

Every year, I think I can make a bunch of cards using all my favorite bunny stamps. It’s a great thought, but might literally be impossible. I’ll probably keep on trying until I finally accomplish it. Lol.

I hope you have a wonderful Easter weekend. See you next time!

Happy Spring Jelly Bean!

By KariV on April 12, 2020 in Easter, Holidays, Paper Crafting

Hello and Happy Spring! Does it feel like spring where you are? Here we’re getting some beautiful blooms in the desert. Spring is coming! I have a fun springy card for you today, with the cutest happy bunny from Paper Smooches.

Isn’t this bunny the sweetest! He loves carrots, and jelly beans! I used some fun pastel colors with turquoise and I love this color combo.

It leads me to the question: what’s your favorite jelly bean flavor: lemon, lime, or blue raspberry!?

The jelly bean in this set is super sweet, and I had a great time building up the pile of jelly beans, with an Easter Egg on top!

I’m entering this into the Pastel color Challenge over at Paper Smooches.

I hope you had a great Easter! Happy Spring!

I love this die and just picked it up a few weeks ago. I definitely wanted to get some Easter cards made before the holiday came and went, but this die is great for cards ALL SPRING long!

Aren’t these bunnies just the cutest? I have a process video showing you just how easy these cards can come together. Watch it below or on YouTube:

Bunny Banner and Shaped Easter Cards

By KariV on March 28, 2018 in Easter, Paper Crafting

Hello again! Today I have a few more Easter projects to share using beautiful products from Our Daily Bread Designs. I used the same Hoppy Birthday stamp set to create a Bunny Banner and some Shaped Easter cards.

This banner was fun to make, but even more fun to display. I used all pastel colors with the star of the show in the center! That bunny is so cute.

The beautiful eggs are die cuts you can find here.

The next project is a shaped card using the same Boho Egg Die that I used above. This time, I used that cut out as a STENCIL and stamped the bunny over the top!

That Boho Egg die is sure beautiful…and look at how it performs as a stencil! I added a bit of colored pencil to the grass and daffodils, and a few Nuvo Drops to add more color. Isn’t this a fun card?

To make this egg shaped card stand up on its own, I just cut a portion of the lower part of the back of the card to be straight!

The last project is this shaped card using the Large Banner Die as the card base:

If you partially die cut the banner, leaving the top of the card in tact, it creates a banner shaped card base! So easy to do and it’s nice to have a different shape.

For this card, I took some finger daubers and added three different colors of ink to the Dazzling Doily stamp to create a softer look. Then I stamped the bunny image over the top. Some Nuvo Jewel Drops finish off the card.

I hope you enjoyed my banner project and shaped cards today. Will this inspire you to try some shaped cards of your own? Happy Easter!

Easter Boxes with Our Daily Bread Designs

By KariV on March 22, 2018 in Easter, Paper Crafting

Hello! With Easter inching closer and closer, my mind is on all things bunnies and chocolate. So today, I’m sharing an adorable Easter Box using the new Hoppy Birthday stamp set from Our Daily Bread Designs.

I love this bunny stamp, and I paired it with the Glorious Gable Box die to make this cute Easter gift box! To do this, I cut the die and before folding it to assemble the box, I stamped the bunny stamp, masked it off and inked up the background.

I created a movie to show you how to easily create this project!

On the back, I also used the gradient inking technique, and then I heat embossed the sentiment from the same stamp set.

I love this Glorious Gable box die….it not only cuts the shape, but also embosses the design to make it look fabulous! I’ll show you what I mean; Click below to watch the video:

I used some seam binding ribbon from my stash to finish off the boxes. I’m giving these to my granddaughters this year…one of them has the favorite color of Orange, and one of them loves Green! How perfect is that?

I hope you enjoyed this project today! Happy Easter!
