Happy Easter Bunny Chocolate treats & Easter Bunny card

I love making these little treats...they're so darned cute! I made them a few years ago but decided I had to do them again this year. I know I just missed posting in time for Easter but thought I’d still share these since Easter Monday was just yesterday. I just put one of these cuties at each place setting yesterday…how darling is that?

I found a wonderful tutorial on Pinterest by Wendy Lee (https://creativeleeyours.com/easter-blessings-treat-holder-printable-tutorial-maui-achievers-blog-hop/) but tweaked them a bit to conserve a bit of paper as I wanted to make a dozen of these! So the only thing I did differently was to make my strips 1” wide and that allowed me to make 6 treats from a 12x12 sheet of DSP.

Also late in sharing is an Easter card for some young ones using the Easter Bunny stamp set:

When you open the card, the front flap can rotate like this:

I love all the creative fun folds out there in Pinterest land! The daisy paper was from my stash way back during my scrapbooking days (decades ago!) and the daisy is the medium daisy punch from Stampin'UP! that retired a few years ago. I still use it often!

Thanks for stopping by…hope you had a nice Easter and have a wonderful day!

Paper Pumpkin Alternates Memorable Meadow March 2024

I had a ton of fun playing with alternates with this month’s kit! I LOVED the daisy print and having the print on both the card front and back meant…cutting it into two and making double the number of cards! I decided to make these cards using the deckled circle dies:

The print was so pretty that I wanted to show it off and NOT cover it up. I loved picking a flower, die cutting it out and framing it with a slightly larger deckled circle in Fresh Freesia to highlight it:

Then I framed the entire print with a layer of Fresh Freesia. The sentiment is from the stamp set in the Paper Pumpkin kit and I tried stamping it with various ink colors and finally settled on heat embossing it in white:

Next, I decided to make some book binding cards and created these:

The following photo shows the card off better so that you can see why it’s called a book binding card design:

And I always embellish the inside of my cards with a stamped image or a scrap of DSP:

And another alternate design I created was a basic easel card and here’s the card closed:

And here’s the card open and propped up:

And a view of card from the side:

I loved this pairing of sentiments from the Lazy Days stamp set and thought it did justice to the beautiful daisies!

I also created a card using the gates from the New Horizon dies but need to take photos of them!

So I’ll end this here for now and hopefully will update it with additional alternates.
