There’s still a little bit of time for Easter bunnies, so here is the cute Fable Friends Easter Bunny and his basket! I wanted to make a gray bunny for a change and I found a way to make some small Easter eggs with a punch!
The other day I discovered that I could use the Christmas Bulb Builder Punch. I just punched out the bulb and trimmed off the little thing on the end. Voila! You have an Easter egg! I just grabbed some scrap cardstock and designer paper to punch out some eggs, even one stamped heart! Instead of laying in the scrap heap, it is now an Easter egg!
The card base is Pear Pizzazz to coordinate with the Floral Romance Specialty Designer Series Paper layer. I liked the look of the leaves as if the bunny is out in the forest with his Easter basket!
The bunny is stamped in Memento Ink and colored in with Stampin’ Blends markers. Love those! I originally thought I would cut out the bunny, but then I thought he might not show up very well so I left him on the Whisper White paper and added the basket. The basket is just a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock embossed with the Basket Weave Embossing Folder. The grass is first stamped with a tiny little grass stamp in the Sheltering Tree Stamp Set. I have actually used this grass stamp a lot! Then I filled in with a Stamping Blends marker. I used Mossy Meadow ink with the stamp and Pear Pizzazz marker. I also sponged a little Balmy Blue ink in the background for some sky. The plain white looked too stark.
The greeting is in the Fable Friends Stamp Set, along with other greetings you can use for other occasions. I used the Tailored Tag Punch to finish off the ends of the greeting. I’m not sure that was the best choice but it’s okay. I used some Gold Faceted Gems for an embellishment. I’m so glad this stamp set is carrying over! It will be great for baby cards also!
