ALERT: Before looking at my card, I want to remind you that this is the LAST day of Sale-a-bration. The “FREE” gifts with qualifying orders, and the added bonus to join Stampin’ Up!, will end tonight, 2/28/2025. Be sure you have taken full advantage of these offers.
Storybook Moments Designer Paper has darling bunnies for Easter cards, and two are featured on today’s card. The one on the left was cut with a Storybook Friends die from the designer paper, and it was like an Easter egg hunt finding him. The one on the right was fussy cut (cut by hand).

Easter Eggs
After cutting the bunnies, I attached them to “eggs” with Dimensionals. The “eggs” were created with an Unbounded Love die and Basic White Cardstock. The background is Sale-a-bration, Bloom Impressions Designer Paper, 3 7/8″ X 5 1/8″, glued to Lost Lagoon Cardstock. These layers were glued to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

The sentiment, “Easter Greetings,” is from the Storybook Friends Stamp Set. I stamped it in Lost Lagoon Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and used a Perennial Postage Die for cutting. As a finishing touch, I added five Rainbow Dots, for subtle color and texture.

For this week’s Global Design Project, I had fun CASEing Janneke De Jong’s watermelon card. I love her color combination of pink and green.

I began by stamping three, small, flowers, from the Delightful Wishes Stamp Set, in Flirty Flamingo Ink on Basic White Cardstock. After stamping, I used a Delightful Wishes Die for cutting, and placed the flowers on Dimensionals.

Wishing you well
Next, I used a Blending Brush with Old Olive Ink to create a “spot” on Basic White Cardstock, 3 5/8″ X 4 7/8″. Then, I stamped leaves, and the sentiment, “you well” in Old Olive Ink. Both are from the Delightful Wishes Stamp Set. To complete the sentiment, I used a Delightful Wishes Die to cut “wishing” from Thick Basic White Cardstock, and glued it in place. I used white to keep the attention on the lower half of the card, like Janneke.

Also like Janneke, I glued the white layer to Flirty Flamingo Cardstock, 3 3/4″ X 5″. This was attached, with Dimensionals, to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. As a final touch, I added three, Earth Tones Shimmer Gems.

The Stampin’ Fancy Friday Design Team is a group of past and continuing Artisans, bringing our followers a fancy monthly challenge for inspiration. This month’s challenge is “red or pink amour.”

Hanging a heart from a tree branch was an idea that came to me, and I created, years ago. For today’s card I’m using a variety of new products. I began by using a Hearts Of Elegance Die to cut two hearts from Bloom Impressions Designer Paper. This paper is one of the FREE Sale-a-bration items, only available until February 28, or while supplies last.

Tree Branch Heart
The wonderful, tree branch was cut with a Delightful Wishes Die from Country Woods Designer Paper. I gave it dimension by layering it on cardstock.

The background is Basic White Cardstock, 4″ X 5 1/4″, glued to a Melon Mambo card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. Prior to gluing, I created a stencil with an Around It All Die, and colored the odd shaped circle with a Blending Brush and Melon Mambo Ink. Then, I gave it texture with the Eyelet Embossing Folder.

The sentiment, “my heart loves your heart” is from the Heart Shaped Bundle, another FREE Sale-a-bration item. I stamped it in Melon Mambo Ink, and used a Delightful Wishes Die for cutting. After gluing the label on top of the heart, I attached it with Dimensionals. To complete the card, I added three, Shiny Sequins.

Happy Valentine’s Day! Wishing you a wonderful day of gifting, and receiving, Valentine cards!
If you haven’t already seen the Heirlooms Arrangements Kit, get ready to fall in love. It became available February 4th, and is my favorite kit to date. There are 8 card bases with many, many, images to “arrange.” There are two cards with instructions, which are so pretty, I copied them exactly as instructed. The only thing I did differently was use Liquid Glue, instead of the tape provided in the kit. These were easy and fun to put together!

Heirloom Arrangements Kit
Then, I copied a third (I feel lucky to have you) card, without instructions, by looking at a picture of a sample in the kit. I did my own selecting and arranging on the fourth (thank you) card.

I’m happy to say, I have four card bases, with many images remaining, for additional cards. There’s lots of room for creativity here!

The second kit that was introduced this month is a winner also, named So Much To Celebrate. It’s a real bargain for nine cards! You’ll find both kits in my Product List below.

My first Easter card for 2025 features a Storybook Moments bunny.

Easter Greetings
This card was a breeze to make, because the bunny, flowers, and butterflies were all “punched out” from a sheet that’s included with the Storybook Moments Designer Paper. P.S. It comes with two sheets!

For the background, I glued Country Lace Designer Paper, 4 1/8″ X 5 3/8″, to a Basic Beige card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″. I created the bunny’s frame with Basic Beige Cardstock, cut with a Storybook Frames Die, backed with Country Lace Designer Paper. After gluing the flowers and frame in place, I attached the bunny and butterflies with Dimensionals.
“Easter Greetings” is from the Storybook Friends Stamp Set, stamped in Crumb Cake Ink, cut with a Perennial Postage Die, and attached with Dimensionals.
