CUTE Easter Bunny projects by Sharon; our Artist of the Month


Easter is just 2 weeks away so I thought I'd share Sharon's projects featuring the Easter Bunny bundle. She chose it for her Artist of the Month theme and she knocked it out of the park!  

Unfortunately the bundle is not currently available as the Easter Bunny punch is out of stock.  It will be back on or before May 15th.  You can get the Easter Bunny stamp set now. 

I'll share a brief description of each: 

She stamped her bunnies on Vellum and colored in just the ears.  The vellum is die-cut with the Scalloped Contour dies. So many cute details here – note the bird, egg and carrot…. The grass in front and the white cloud pieces under the vellum set the scene!

Next is a few of her adorable  Easter treats:

ON the top left is one of our Scalloped Kraft Treat boxes seen here. She punched the bunny through the lid and added a piece of window sheet to hold in the yummy candy.  The blue 'pull-up' candy bar treat holds a massive kit kat candy bar!  I love the bunny punched through the front with a sweet basket. Just wrap the ribbon around the bar and tie at the top for a fun pull up treat.  *Tip; use the size of your candy bar to guide you on cutting/folding your card stock wrap.  

Here is a close-up of the bunny eggs.  She stamped the White strip and added it to a card stock wrap. The bunnies are stamped, colored and fussy cut then added to the band.  

Next is a fun fold with three bunnies on the diagonal.  

This card is a standard A2 card – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4". She added the front two squares on the front panel and here's how she added the center bunny to the inside edge.  The designer paper is the new Hello, Irresistible DSP. 

I love the additions she added to each one, flowers, a carrot and eggs; all from the Easter Bunny stamp set. 

Look closely at the ribbon and fancy edge element on this next card: 

She used two colors or our In Color ribbon and twisted them together.  Fun!  And for the DSP element here she die-cut multiple labels from the Fancy Flora DSP & Natural Prints dies to create this pretty layer.  Clever & creative!

This next card is a card with an additional 'gift'.  A bunny bookmark… 

See how the double bunny can be removed to use as a bookmark?  It's held onto her basket with magnets.  These magnets are adheres to each side of the bunnies. The card looks great without the magnet bookmark too.  Super clever!  

This next card is made from a window sheet.  Yes; the card base is a clear window sheet!  So cool.  

The die-cut wreath is from the Natural Prints dies using Fancy Flora DSP. 

Here's a view of the inside. She added the card stock to the inside front and the inside back of the folded Window Sheet card base.  

Lastly a set of sour cream treat containers: 

Have you ever made one of these?  It's been awhile for me but they are so fun to make.  Basically it a tube of paper that you secure one end well. Then fill with candy and secure the other end closed opposite from the other end.  Traditionally you use a crimper to crease the end, but you can use a scoring tool as well.  

She had fun adding multiple tags to each! 

Didn't she do an amazing job?!  So many wonderful and SUPER creative projects. Well done Sharon!!

  • A unique fun-fold card with Thoughtful Moments Hybrid embossing folder tips with video & free project sheet


    For last week's video I highlighted the Thoughtful Moments Hybrid embossing folder.  Once I used it I was hooked!  It's fast & easy!  I hope you watch the video here or below; you'll be amazed! 

    The cards today are both unique fun folds that can easily include a gift card option.  

    This card features Misty Moonlight, White & Fresh Freesia. The pretty paper is the Flight & Airy designer paper from our Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's free with a $50 order.  See it here. 

    Here's how the card opens. See the gift card inserted into the left side pocket?  It's so easy to make – a simple cut on the front layer up to the score line. Then adhere the outer and lower sides to form a pocket.  

    I cased this card from my friend Susie Wood; she is a master designer of fun fold cards.  See here blog here; she usually posts measurements and great directions. 

    Here's her original card she sent me: 

    I lover her style so much! She used the Poetic Expressions designer paper and the gorgeous Thoughtful Expressions bundle; both from the 2024 Spring catalog. 

    Notice I changed the side I cut the gift card on; see the difference in the two cards below?  I wanted to see how it worked and it is just fine either way. 

    I used the new brayer to add ink to the folder, added the large die, then white card stock before I ran it through my Cut & Emboss machine. I got a nice handful of inked and embossed greetings! It's so very cool; I hope you watch the video!! 

    This Thoughtful Moments Hybrid embossing folder comes with a set of dies too.  See it here.

    I made the pretty card below during the video. 

    My colors include Pebbled Path, White & Petal Pink.  The pretty papers are from the Softly Stippled designer paper seen here, also in the 2024 Sale-a-Bration catalog.  It's free with any $50 purchase from Stampin' Up! through  February; or while supplies last.  

    The floral paper I used is originally white with Pebbled Path; I added Petal Pink ink to the flowers with a sponge dauber. 

    Note the layered scalloped labels under the double-layered greeting.  These are from the Thoughtful Expressions dies seen here.  They're a gorgeous set of dies you will want to consider. Originally I did not get the coordinating stamp set, but I did order it now because I've seen so many beautiful samples using it.  We're all enablers! 

    Below is a sample of the many ways you can ink the greetings.  I cannot say how much I love this folder & dies bundle!

    Details on these die-cuts seen above:

    • The top two in bold Pebbled Path were embossed and cut from White paper. After I cut and embossed them I rolled the inked brayer over them very, very lightly. *see video!
    • Celebrate & Thank you with a thin inking were done by inking the folder with the brayer, adding the die and White card stock, then running it through the Cut & Emboss machine. *it cuts and inks at the same time; with one pass! 
    • The Love You was done with both of the above techniques. Pebbled Path inside the folder and afterwards I brayered Petal Pink over the raised area.  

    Below is the video you can watch to see these techniques using this amazing Hybrid embossing folder in action.  Don't forget to follow me on YouTube!
