Springtime Joy Spring Card

Springtime Joy Spring Card

I can’t resist playing with this bunny and other cute stamps in this set so the result is this Springtime Joy Spring Card. This card has a “Welcome Spring!” greeting, but it could also be an Easter card, of course, or it could be a “Welcome Baby!” card! Bunnies and little chicks are perfect for baby cards as well.

This card uses the Springtime Joy Stamp Set in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog (Spring Mini). This Spring Mini Catalog goes through June, but eventually it will end and many products in it will retire so you might want to get this stamp set and any others before the rush sets in during June! Just in case!

To make this card a little different and a little more fun, I punched three holes for the bunnies and chick to peek out of! I made the card base of Blushing Bride Cardstock with a layer of Basic White. I randomly used the 1 1/2″ Circle Punch (retiring!). (I had a hard time finding this punch by searching for the name, so just look under “Punches” under Products and scroll through until you find it.) I just punched three holes in the card for the two bunnies and the chick.

On scrap paper I had stamped the bunnies and chick and colored them in with Stampin’ Blends. Then you can punch or cut out the images with plenty of space around them and see how you can place them on the card base with the punched white layer over the top. It is just a matter of a little fiddling to get them placed correctly. I lifted up the white layer leaving the stamped images in place. While holding those in place, I carefully lifted up one side and then the other, sneaking some adhesive underneath so I wasn’t moving the images out of place. I got lucky and it went well!

Before adhering the white layer, I stamped some tulips from the same Spring Joy Stamp Set in Blushing Bride Ink. I wish I would have also stamped the butterflies, but that was an afterthought! I stamped the butterflies later on scraps, colored them in and cut out. I could have popped those up but just adhered them flat t the card and drew in their antennae with a black pen.

The Basic White layer is popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals®. I used pretty many on the underside of the white since I had the punched holes and wanted the card front to be sturdy. The greeting is in the stamp set and I just stamped it on a scrap strip of Basic White, made one end flat against the right side since there wasn’t a lot of space for a greeting on this card and made a flagged end on the other side.

If you aren’t convinced at how adorable the Springtime Joy Stamp Set is, take a look at the cute lamb, also in this set, as you see on THIS CARD.

This Springtime Joy Spring Card is sweet for this Easter weekend or just as a spring card or add another greeting for birthday or thinking of you!

Garden Lane Easter Bunny Card

Garden Lane Easter Bunny Card

Today I needed to make an Easter card for my son that was a little less frilly than the ones I already made and I had something in mind, but not this Garden Lane Easter Bunny Card. But once I started looking at my designer papers for the one I was going to use, I saw this Garden Lane Designer Series Paper and I thought that leafy pattern would go well with a bunny!

The card base is Garden Green but there are other greens that go with the paper. For the scalloped Layering Circle Die underneath the bunny, I chose Pool Party because it looked like it matched the bluish leaves a little bit.

The bunny from the Welcome Easter Stamp Set is stamped in Memento Ink and die cut with the Stitched Shapes Die. Then I had fun coloring him in with Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends.

The Easter greeting is from the same Welcome Easter Stamp Set and is just stamped on a strip of Whisper White. The bunny and the greeting are both popped up on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

That’s all there is to this card! The Garden Lane Easter Bunny Card is an easy and fun card to make!

Monochromatic Welcome Easter Bunny Card

If you want to make a pretty quick and easy Easter card, this Monochromatic Welcome Easter Bunny Card is a good one to make! I really like the way this card turned out!

For this card, I stamped the bunny in the Welcome Easter Stamp Set in the Stampin’ Up! Occasions Mini Catalog. I stamped it in Highland Heather randomly on the Whisper White card front for a background and then on another piece of Whisper White that was die cut with the Stitched Shapes Dies for the focal point of the card. The card base is Highland Heather to match the ink and the scalloped circle layer under the center bunny.

The ribbon underneath the center bunny is the pretty striped Gorgeous Grape 1/4″ Mini Striped Ribbon. Although it is a slightly different purple color, it works just fine and the recipient of your card is still going to love it! I popped up the bunny piece on Stampin’ Dimensionals® and the ribbon’s fold sticks out the top and then tail ends hang out the bottom. Easy and cute!

The greeting is from the same Welcome Easter Stamp Set and layered on a piece of Highland Heather. To add a little something on the greeting I also stamped some of the little flowers in the stamp set at the ends.

A few years ago I made a similar card with a different bunny stamp. You can see it HERE. I stamped the bunny in one color randomly in the background and then colored in just one bunny and added a greeting. That card shows how you can use a bunny stamp to make an Easter card or a Baby card! Bunnies are so versatile!

There are lots of cards you can make simply by using only one color as in my monochromatic Easter card with the Welcome Easter bunny. Try one!
