This is one of the first cards I made with the Hand-Penned suite. I chose to use the Soft Succulent card base with Fresh Freesia and So Saffron accents.
That pretty paper is called Hand-Penned Designer Paper seen hereon page 131 of the new Annual catalog. It features so many soft, beautiful colors. People are loving it so much I will likely feature it for a kit to go in June.
I used the Painted Labels dies for the neat circle die-cut and the Fresh Freesia scalloped trim is from the Hand-Penned Petals Bundle. Click here to see the bundle.
The greeting and flower images are from the Hand-Penned Petals stamp set.

Easter Bunny Floating Panel card with a free project sheet & video tutorial!
We made this sweet card at my March Card Clubs – it features the Easter Bunny bundle. This bundle is currently unavailable. you can get the Easter Bunny stamp set now but the Bunny punch is returning in May.
It's a Floating Panel fun fold card; one of my current favorite folds lately. It's both fun to make and easy to create too!
My colors include Fresh Freesia, Blackberry Bliss and Daffodil Delight. Below you'll see the baby version. I gave my gals the choice of Easter or baby.
Card base 4 1/4" X 11" score at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2". Scraps for bunny & circle punch. Two strips 1/2" X 1 1/2" for the floating panel hinges • DSP pieces four pieces at 1 1/4" X 4" • White front square 2 3/4", inside 5 1/4" X 4" • Blackberry Bliss square 2 7/8" • Greeting strips 3/4" X 3 1/2"
Here's a tip on the Floating panel: You need just two pieces of card stock about 1/2" X 2 1/2". Fold them in half and adhere to the center fold; one on each side. Your front panel is adhered to this.
*Watch the video below (or click here)where I share the tips on creating this card; it's the second project of 4!
Can you spot the shimmer? I used the Pearlescent paper from the Annual Catalog. See it here.
It was the perfect sheen for this technique as the moist ink did not absorb quickly like it might for regular card stock. Glossy paper would also work well.
After I added the color, I let it dry for an hour or so. Then I textured it with one of the embossing folders in the 3D Basics pack seen here. These are currently out of stock but they'll be back in May.
Below you can see the difference in my cards; especially the colors. One is soft and subtle and the other more vibrant. This happens as you work with your baby wipe; the first few swipes are bold and the next few are much softer.
Tips for success:
Fold and roll your baby wipe in a tube. Hold it tightly and add a few drops of ink refills.
Add each color separately in a row. I tend to add enough for about 1/2" of surface.
Start swiping off your paper and then onto it. You can do straight swipes or get creative and add curves or swirls. Let dry.
Shimmery, pearlescent or glossy works best. But you can do it on regular card stock too.
Notice the colors of the butterflies? I colored the Brass Butterflies with a Polished Pink blends marker for the left card. I wasn't sure I liked it or not so left them uncolored for my swap cards.
