Fable Friends Bunny and His Basket

Fable Friends Bunny and His Basket

There’s still a little bit of time for Easter bunnies, so here is the cute Fable Friends Easter Bunny and his basket! I wanted to make a gray bunny for a change and I found a way to make some small Easter eggs with a punch!

The other day I discovered that I could use the Christmas Bulb Builder Punch. I just punched out the bulb and trimmed off the little thing on the end. Voila! You have an Easter egg! I just grabbed some scrap cardstock and designer paper to punch out some eggs, even one stamped heart! Instead of laying in the scrap heap, it is now an Easter egg!

The card base is Pear Pizzazz to coordinate with the Floral Romance Specialty Designer Series Paper layer. I liked the look of the leaves as if the bunny is out in the forest with his Easter basket!

The bunny is stamped in Memento Ink and colored in with Stampin’ Blends markers. Love those! I originally thought I would cut out the bunny, but then I thought he might not show up very well so I left him on the Whisper White paper and added the basket. The basket is just a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock embossed with the Basket Weave Embossing Folder. The grass is first stamped with a tiny little grass stamp in the Sheltering Tree Stamp Set. I have actually used this grass stamp a lot! Then I filled in with a Stamping Blends marker. I used Mossy Meadow ink with the stamp and Pear Pizzazz marker. I also sponged a little Balmy Blue ink in the background for some sky. The plain white looked too stark.

The greeting is in the Fable Friends Stamp Set, along with other greetings you can use for other occasions. I used the Tailored Tag Punch to finish off the ends of the greeting. I’m not sure that was the best choice but it’s okay. I used some Gold Faceted Gems for an embellishment. I’m so glad this stamp set is carrying over! It will be great for baby cards also!

Fable Friends Bunny Easter Card

Fable Friends Bunny Easter Card

It’s time to start making Easter cards like this Fable Friends Bunny Easter Card. Isn’t that bunny the cutest thing?! This is an easy card to make so you could make multiples and make lots of people happy to receive a card from you during the Easter season. The Fable Friends Stamp Set is great for Easter but you can also use it for other cards, like for a baby.

The card base is Lovely Lipstick with a layer of Whisper White under the designer paper which is from the All My Love Designer Series Paper. Don’t tell anybody, but I stamped the bunny on the middle part of the Whisper White paper, die cut it and then used that piece as the layer. Nobody will ever know that there is an oval hole in the Whisper White layer unless they take the card apart! You can save a little bit of paper this way although I don’t always think of doing that little trick.

The bunny is stamped in Memento Black Ink. This is the ink that works with the Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers. I love to color with these markers! Just pick out whatever colors you like. The bunny is easy to color! This oval piece is layered on a scalloped oval Lovely Lipstick piece.

The ribbon is the Crumb Cake 3/8″ Classic Weave Ribbon . This ribbon has a very nice soft feel to it. I just tied a knot to keep it simple and popped the bunny up on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The greeting is from the same Fable Friends Stamp Set and layered on a piece of Lovely Lipstick.
