Hi crafty friends and happy Easter theme week! Sophie here and I am thrilled to be sharing two cards I made featuring a mix of old and new from the shop. I am highlighting the Bunny Friends stamps and coordinating dies for both of my projects. The best news is that these products are on sale this week! :) You don’t have to use these products for Easter cards only as I showcase here today. Let’s dive in! 

For my first card I used one of my new favorite stencils from the Easter release – this watercolor oval! It is so beautiful and a perfect landing spot for a simple scene. I used the lightest blue and green inks I could find in my stash to just barely blend on some color for the background. I opted to stamp my sentiment directly on the card and also stamped some tone on tone flowers from the Bunny Friends stamp set. For the bunny I colored him with Copic markers listed below. 

Bunny: W00, W0, W1, R00
Carrot: YG17, YG11, YR04, YR02

For my second card I used another one of the adorable bunnies from the stamp set and used the same marker colors as listed above. I wanted to make a clean and simple card and featured the new Springtime Borders Stencils. I thought it would be fun to just feature part of this stencil on the card as sort of a ground as a landing place for the bunny and my sentiment. The sentiment was stamped directly on my card base and it is from the new Easter Greetings stamp set which is seriously one of my favorite sentiment sets of all time. I LOVE the mix of scripty and block fonts. To finish off my card I added a few of my go-to sparkling clear sequins.

I hope you found these projects inspiring! Do you like to make Easter or spring themed cards? I’d love to know so leave a comment below! Bye for now – I’ll be back to share more projects with you soon! :) 

Hi crafty friends! Sophie here sharing a card I made featuring the new Butterfly Border die set! I LOVE this set – it is so versatile! Border sets are fun because you can really use them for so may different things. Pretty Pink Posh has some fantastic border sets including fall leaves, spider webs, Easter eggs, and more! I love the possibilities of really customizing cards and projects with this set. Let’s take a look at the project I made below…

For this card I actually just used the individual butterfly dies to create this cute little swarm of butterflies. I used up a lot of scrap cardstock in my stash in various shades of pinks and corals. For the body of the butterfly I used an ivory cardstock. 

For the sentiment I used the new Easter Greetings stamps and coordinating dies. I love when stamped greetings have coordinating dies and this set is so beautiful with the mix of block and script fonts! 

To finish off my card I scattered some sparkling clear sequins in the smallest size around to fill in-between the butterflies. I really love how this turned out and I hope you love it too! I hope you found this project inspiring! I’ll be back soon to share more projects with you!

Hello! Christina here to share a sweet Easter shaker card featuring some of the new things from the latest PPP release. This release has the most adorable things that will definitely inspire you to start your springtime crafting ASAP!

For my project, I used the new Easter Bucket Additions Dies to create an Easter basket filled with springtime goodies, like speckled Easter eggs, cute carrots, and of course, jelly beans!

Follow along as I give you all the details for creating this Easter shaker card, including a supply list. 

Candy Bucket Dies – the bucket/basket
Easter Bucket Additions Dies – all the goodies
Easter Holder Addition Dies – small flower
Tiny Bows Stencil
Grass Border Die
Eyelet Rectangle Dies
Spring Flowers Clay Confetti
Sentiment Strips Dies
Sentiment Strips: Easter Stamp Set

Distress Inks – Saltwater Taffy, Scattered Straw, Tumbled Glass, and Carved Pumpkin to shade colored cardstock for the die cuts and scattered straw for the background panel
Distress Inks – Worn Lipstick, Mustard Seed, and Broken China for adding a speckled detail to eggs
Pawsitively Saturated Inks – I used Spring and Dublin for leaves, grass, and the jelly bean. I used Lilac to shade the jelly bean
Paper Glaze Snowdrop White for stenciling

---

My first step was to create the background panel. I trimmed a piece of pale yellow cardstock to fit inside the stitched detail of the largest Eyelet Rectangle. Then I blended Scattered Straw Distress Ink around the edges, leaving the center the lighter yellow. Next, I stenciled the panel with the Tiny bows using the stencil paste and set it aside to dry.

My next step was to create the shaker. I die cut the bucket shaker components from white cardstock with an embossed dot detail and used the frame piece as a template to die cut the shaker window from the background panel. Then I attached a piece of acetate over the opening on the reverse side before attaching foam strips around the window to create the walls of the shaker. Next, I filled the shaker with the confetti and placed the bucket die cut on the foam strips to complete the shaker component. Then I mounted this panel to the Eyelet Rectangle using more foam strips and a little liquid adhesive.

With the shaker complete, I got started on all the fun bucket additions. I die cut most of the elements from colored cardstock and inked the edges for a little dimension. The green die cut elements started with white cardstock before I inked them with two shades of green ink. To give the Easter eggs a decorative detail, I spattered them with coordinating ink colors and thinned white gouache paint.

To assemble and finish the card, I mounted the card panel to an A2 spring green cardstock panel before adding the bucket frame and handle to the card front. Then I tucked all the goodies inside the bucket using either liquid adhesive or thin foam squares. The final details were to add a sweet bow, a few small flowers, and a stamped and die cut sentiment right across the center of the Easter bucket.  

And that completes this sweet Easter shaker card showcasing the new Easter Bucket Additions! Thanks so much for reading, and see you again soon!

Hello Everyone! Leanne here and I’m excited to be a guest on the blog today to share a fun Easter card. My mini slimline sized card features an adorable bunny with some large decorated eggs all created with new products from this month’s release. 

I started this card by adding a blue sky and three layers of the Grass Border onto a panel that’s just slightly smaller than the mini slimline card base. I then created two large eggs with the Build An Egg dies. I choose to keep the decoration on the eggs simple but there’s many dies included in this set that gives the option for making them much more detailed if you’d like.

Next I die cut and assembled my bunny using the Bunny Holder die set. You can easily customize this cute bunny and add fun accessories with the Easter Holder Additions die set. I decided to keep this bunny simple as well by die cutting the body from white card stock and adding light pink ink blending around the edges. I gave him some rosy cheeks with R00 & R20 Copics.

To complete the card, I tucked the eggs and bunny into the grass border layers and adding the Easter Greeting. This stamp is included in the new Easter Greetings set which has coordinating dies. 

I hope this bright and colorful Easter card gets you into the spring crafting spirit. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Hi friends, Debbie here with the new Fringe Egg Die Set from the Easter Release! This release is incredibly adorable, with all the fun eggs, bunnies and chicks! 

So to start off, I started building my Robin Blue Fringe Egg. With a panel of white card stock I ink blended on Gina K Ocean Mist ink, then I splattered on the ink. Next, with Dr. PH Martin’s Bleedproof Paint splattered more! Once it was dry I die cut out the Fringe Egg layers. Next, I die cut out four times of each of the layers from a matching card stock. 

I now realize I want my card to be monochromatic. So with  the new Tiny Bows Stencil I ink blended on a white panel with the Ocean Mist ink. After I was done I lifted the stencil off and with the remaining ink on the brush I lightly blended over the panel.

Next, I die cut out some blue vellum with the Wonky Stitched Squares Dies. Attach  the Fringe egg to the top of the vellum and then to the Tiny Bow panel.

Next, I stamped out the sentiment from the Upright Greetings: Easter stamp set with the matching ink on white card stock. Die cut it out with the flag die from the Sentiment Strips die set. Attach the two dies by overlapping them. I knew I wanted to make the Arsenia Bow! It is fringy so I knew it would be a great look for my egg. And I love how it all came together!

Thanks for stopping by and stay crafty my friends!

Hi there my crafty and creative friends! It’s Wanda here, guesting on the awesome PPP Blog today! I am very happy to join you for the new release this month. Easter is one of my favorite holidays, and I just adore the pretty pastel and Spring colors! And I always love what PPP does for Spring – don’t you?!

I have a colorful Easter card to share with you today. I used the Candy Bucket Dies along with the brand new Easter Bucket Additions, Easter Greetings, Grass Border Die, and MORE! I used all the spring colors too. My finished card is a white A2 card base, layered with gingham, and that beautiful Eyelet Rectangle Die. 

I started by die cutting and assembling the Candy Bucket, using light gray and white. Then I die cut the grass, the eggs and the carrots out of colored cardstock. I used Copic Markers to add shading to all the die cut pieces. I splattered on some white paint and used a white gel pen to add highlights. 

I assembled the Candy Bucket and the Bunny pieces. Then I added the grass, eggs and carrots inside the bucket. I added a bow at the top of the bucket handle. Then, I added a few gems and hearts for just a little bit of sparkle.

I stamped the sentiment using the new Easter Greetings stamp set and die cut it with the matching dies. Some Bunny Loves You! It’s the perfect sentiment!

Thank you so much to PPP for letting me share a project with you today. Happy Spring and Happy Easter! 

Hello crafty friends, June here! Today I’m sharing one of the cards I made using the new Easter release. It’s not an Easter card though, there’s lots of fun products included that can be used for all types of spring related cards. One of my favorites is the Carrot Shaker, which might be meant for an Easter bunny themed card, but it works so well for a normal spring card aswel! 

I cut out my carrot pieces from colored cardstock and did some light ink shading to give it some dimension. I wanted a bit of texture as well, so I splattered some white thinned out acrylic paint on my pieces. I filled my shaker with a combination of the Hippity Hop Mix and the Spring Flowers Mix. I got a bit nitpicky and carefully selected the shaker bits I wanted, because I wanted to keep the color scheme as minimal as I could. 

Okay now, this is the part I’m so excited for! All stencils in this release are totally up my alley, but the Watercolor Oval and Watercolor Rectangle take the cake. These can be used to create a simple watercolor-like color blend in the background, but I wanted to go even further and add a pattern to the shaped window. 

I used both the oval and the Springtime Borders on top of each other to create a pattern that matches my theme. I used 4 stencil total for this as there are 2 layering stencils in the Springtime Borders pack, and both an oval window AND its negative space in the Watercolor Oval pack. It was so much fun seeing this come together! I love layering stencils, but sometimes they’re just a bit too distracting for a full background. I love how I was able to add a green border around my pattern this way so the pattern didn’t take up my entire background panel. I feel like this opens up an entire world for me and I can’t wait to revisit the layering stencils from older releases to do something similar.

To finish up my background, and making it a bit more textured, I added white gel pen details on the pattern and white and green splatters on the border. I used the largest Stitched Torn Rectangle to cut it out because I thought it matched the jagged edges of the stencil really well. I added one of the spring themed sentiments from the Easter Greetings on top of my carrot to finish my card.

And that’s it for today! I just can’t say enough good things about this release. I would’ve never thought an Easter release would be so right up my alley, but here we are! Something about all these new products gets me so ready for springtime!

Hello, Gemma here today to share a fun Easter card featuring the new Bunny Holder from the March release.

I began by die cutting the pieces from the Bunny Holder. I also added some cheeks to the bunny, using a die from the Halloween Mug Additions die set.

On a mini slimline card base, I stamped a sentiment from the new Easter Greetings stamp set. Below this, I adhered the bunny so just the head and shoulders would be on the card. I trimmed away the rest.

Next, I die cut lots of mini Easter eggs, using dies from the new Easter Holder Additions set. I adhered these to the card around the bunny and sentiment, keeping the top part of the card clean and simple.

I hope you have been able to check out the new release, there’s a lot of fun items. Thanks for stopping by!
