Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop!
This month, the theme is Punch Your Art Out. We really hope that you will be inspired by all the amazing creations the Pals are sharing with you! Then, you will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.
Peter, the Easter Bunny Punch, has been sitting idle for a while now, and said he didn’t want to wait until it was time to make Easter cards. He said he is a “unique” rabbit, and would make a perfectly good “snow bunny,” if I cut him from Earthen Elegance Designer Paper. What do you think?
He also wanted me to decorate his envelope with another pattern of Earthen Elegance Designer Paper to match his fur. It was easy to cut a section, 5 3/4″ X 2 1/2″, glue it to the flap, and trim the excess with Paper Snips while using the flap as a template.
To further prove his worthiness, he asked to have a beautiful background of snow, pine needles and pinecones. We found the perfect die in the Christmas Pinecone Die Set, cut it from Basic White Cardstock, and glued it to Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/4″. This was glued to a Pecan Pie card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.
Peter had been sitting next to the Double Oval Punch, which encouraged him to speak up. So, Peter returned the favor by requesting the Double Oval Punch be used for the sentiment.
The sentiment, ” ‘Tis the season,” is from the Brightest Glow Stamp Set, stamped in Mossy Meadow on Basic White Cardstock, and punched with the plain oval. The scalloped oval was punched from Basic White Cardstock, also, and attached with Dimensionals.
For a touch of red and green, I stamped some pine and berries from the Cottage Wreaths Stamp Set. The pine is Mossy Meadow, and the berries, Cherry Cobbler, cut with Country Wreaths Dies, and glued to the sentiment.
The big question is, how do you catch a “unique” rabbit? Unique up on it. (my husband’s joke).
Thank you for hopping by! Have a great day!
