Happy Easter Bunny card
Today I’m showing you an Easter card using Happy Easter Bunny single stamp from Stampin’ Up! that will coordinate with the gift box I posted a couple of days ago HERE. I’ve used basically the same materials as with the box –
- I took my color scheme from the Confetti Celebration Designer Paper using two of the many pretty prints in this package to create the belly band.
- The Crushed Curry Ribbon comes from the Best Year Ever Accessory Pack that is one of this year’s Sale-A-Bration free gifts. You only have two weeks left of Sale-A-Bration, and all non-stamp choices are only while supplies last. If you’re planning to order again to receive Sale-A-Bration items, please do it very soon – I wouldn’t want you to be disappointed when your choice is gone!
- The Happy Easter Bunny stamp set was the perfect stamped piece for the front of my card. You really don’t need much else with this nice big image. I was able to cut it as well as the border using the Oval Framelits Collection and Big Shot.
- I colored the tiny pieces with my Stampin’ Write Markers in Melon Mambo, So Saffron and Bermuda Bay. This is the perfect time to invest in the Many Marvelous Markers set of all 38 colors in our color collections. At $109.95, you’re saving substantially by purchasing the markers all together, and this is the only way to get the handy carrying case, too. And with Sale-A-Bration still going strong, you can choose TWO free Sale-A-Bration gifts for your marker purchase!
- I wanted a really light look for the bunny, so I switched my coloring technique to using both the Pink Pirouette and Smoky Slate stamp pads along with my Aqua Painters. This way, I could control the depth of color more and could be sure to get just a touch of color.
Oh, good grief – I did it again! Did you find the piece I forgot to color?! I really need to be more careful next time!
Here are the box and coordinating card together. I love that with our beautiful Stampin’ Up! products, we can create this matching look with our gifts and cards. It gives that added “wow factor”! (I did go back in and hit the missing piece on the card before I snapped this photo, but that poor bunny on the box is still missing his arm!)

Indescribable Gift
Easter is early this year – April 5th – so I’ll be gearing up to show you lots of Easter projects during March. For my first card of the season, I’ve used Indescribable Gift, a beautiful stamp set in the 2015 Stampin’ Up! Occasions Catalog. You’ll receive this beautiful flower image plus 3 great sentiments.
- My color scheme for this card is Pear Pizzazz, Pink Pirouette and Rose Red, with just a touch of So Saffron for the flower centers and Crumb Cake for the tree branch.
- I’ve always loved coloring images with my Aqua Painter and stamp pads. And while our Blendabilities are on hold right now, I’m back to one of my favorite ways to color! I used Naturals White cardstock; this paper takes the water from the Aqua Painter much better than the smooth Whisper White cardstock.
- Remember to stamp with StazOn when using water!
- The pretty Pink Pirouette polka dot paper (say THAT 3 times fast!) comes from the Subtles Backgrounds Designer Series Paper Stack.
- The splatter stamp from Gorgeous Grunge stamp set has got to be one of my favorite stamps of all times! It adds just a little something to fill in around the edges.
- The sentiment is punched out with the 1-3/4″ Circle Punch. I added a piece of Rose Red Lace from the Artisan Embellishment Kit behind it and popped the circle up with Dimensionals.
