justBstamping.blogspot.ca: Three Little Bunnies (Stamping Symphony Blog Hop)

We have run the gamut of spring weather this weekend--from the loveliest to the dreariest! Regardless of what is happening outside your window our blog hop this month is going to help you feel the Spring. :)

At my card class this week we made three Easter cards which I wanted to share with you today. My favourite features little punch art bunnies which I have used several times already this spring.

Aren't their little gingham ears too cute?!? I used the Gingham Gala paper for my card but you could use the Buffalo Check stamp set to create gingham in any colour you like.

I started by punching each bunny out of the DSP with the Cookie Cutter Builder Punch (it's not just for gingerbread men you know!). I then trimmed and snipped until I was left with the bunny shape. I used one of the many faces from the Foxy Friends stamp set and Smoky Slate on Whisper White paper and then cut them out with a 1" circle punch. I used my Flirty Flamingo Blends marker to add a little blush to their cheeks.

The card base is made from Highland Heather cardstock, which is such a pretty shade of purple and matches the middle bunny's gingham and ribbon bow perfectly. I layered a panel of white on top that I embossed with the Basket Weave folder (although it is hard to see in the picture). I added another smaller panel from the Pastels Paper Pack, which includes sheets of all my favourite colours. I lightly inked around the outside with Pear Pizzazz and a sponge dauber.

And a card isn't finished at my house until the inside has seen a little love too!

As always we made two other projects during the class, including a "chocolate" version of the bunny and some punch art eggs hiding in the grass.
