Hi friends, it’s Carly here today. Is there someone in your life who would like a little Easter treat? Well, I’ve got an idea for you and it’s super easy!
By scoring, folding and cutting a few lines on a square of cardstock, you can create the easiest little treat box! And then you can use your favorite PPP Easter dies to decorate!
I used the solid layer of the Decorative Easter Egg to turn my little treat box into an oversized egg and then added a pink bunny cut with the Bunny Holder to keep it from rolling.
Add some Cadbury Mini Eggs & Nerds Gummy Clusters and you have an adorable treat to give!
Hello, friends! Justin here and today I have crafted up some floral Spring inspiration to share with you! The Daffodil Shaker Dies are so perfect for putting big and bold florals on your project, and I’m going even bigger by using 3!
I think that one of the best ways to make your daffodil die cuts pop is by cutting the shapes from colored cardstock and ink blending the edges with dye inks. For this card, I am using various Distress Inks to blend up our daffodils, and they coordinated so perfectly with the color of our blends!
I also have a deep love for the Pinking Rectangles Die Set. First, I love the jagged edges, which really lends a fun personality to your project. I also love that there is a stitching that outlines an interior rectangle. I like to use this stitching as a guide to mask off the edges with tape, and then ink blend the center rectangle of the dies. This, in turn, gives a framed look to the die cut! For this card, I take white paper, mask the edges, and blend a grassy and blue sky background that will serve as the perfect scene for our daffodils!
Lastly, big bold sentiments are going to definitely help send the feel of this card over the top! The Large Spring Shadow Diesis the perfect addition to the word sentiment die collection, and I just love how much space it takes up on the card! Adding the smaller hello from thePotted Daffodils stamp set above the word spring just makes the card even more fun!

Hi friends, it’s Carly. I hope you’ve been enjoying Easter Theme Week so far! Are you looking for an extra special Easter card idea? I think I have one for you…it has bunny ears and glitter!!!
The Bunny Face Shaker is already so versatile (and adorable), whether you use it as a shaker or just a sweet bunny face. But I would argue that it’s even cuter when you just use the ears, LOL! Using just part of a die is one of my favorite ways to stretch my supplies and I love “off the edge” shakers!
The card is super simple to make! Partially die cutting the Bunny Face from colored cardstock creates the shaker window. Then a little scrap plastic wraps around a white cardstock panel to create the shaker pocket. After adding a stamped sentiment or two and adhering everything together, you’ve got a sweet & sparkly Easter card!
Hi friends! It’s Caly with you today and I am so excited to share this bunny cupcake card with you using some previously released products from Pretty Pink Posh. I bet some of you already have these awesome die sets in your stash and can easily make a card like this one!
Between the two die sets mentioned above, I was able to create the bunny cupcake with ears, little hands, and feet! I just love that this bunny is wearing a cupcake. Yes, you can have a cupcake AND eat it, too!
I used the Stitched Torn Rectangles Dies to die-cut a decorative border for the background panel before attaching everything together. To finish, I stamped a sentiment using the Easter Greetingsset.
I hope you enjoyed this card! I had so much fun making it! Happy Spring!
I created a lucky-themed design featuring adorable critters, layered greens, and an action wobbler that makes the puppy image wiggle right on the front of the card.
I started by blending Sprout and Parsley ink to create a soft green background. Then I layered the Lucky Words stencil over the top using the same colors for a subtle tone-on-tone effect. To finish, I added splatters of white acrylic paint and gold metallic ink for extra texture and sparkle.
Using the Shamrock Border die, I cut three shades of green cardstock and alternated the colors to create a playful layered border that enhances the lucky theme.
For assembly, I started with the sentiment at the top, followed by the critters, and finished with the shamrock border along the bottom. Thin foam squares add dimension behind the kitty, while an action wobbler behind the puppy brings movement and interactive fun to the design.
Adding interactive elements like action wobblers is an easy way to make your cards more engaging and memorable. This lucky-themed design combines layered textures, bright coloring, and movement for a playful finished card.
I hope you were inspired by this video. Thanks for spending time with me!
Hi Friends! Carly here and I have a super easy interactive card design to share with you! It’s my first time creating a pop-up card like this so I would love & appreciate your thoughts!
Hi friends, it’s Carly here today. Do you use masking techniques in your cardmaking? I LOVE masking because it feels like magic but it’s actually so simple!
To create this rainy stenciled background, all I needed was a little low-tack masking tape and the Raindrops stencil. So easy peasy!
I placed tape on a white cardstock panel to create a U shape. Then I applied Distress Oxide Salvaged Patina ink with a blending tool. Next I used the Raindrops stencil with Distress Oxide Blueprint Sketch ink to add the raindrops.
After removing the masking tape, I stamped the sentiment from the Spring Blooms set and then adhere the umbrella handle and umbrella (from the Springtime Holder Additions) to the card.
I hope you were inspired by this and video. Thanks so much for stopping by!
This project is full of cheerful spring details and fun dimension, making it a perfect card to celebrate the season.
I have a video tutorial that walks you through all of the products used along with the step-by-step assembly process, so be sure to check that out for the full creative experience!
To give the die-cut pieces more depth and visual interest, I used ink blending in colors that coordinated with the cardstock choices. This simple technique adds subtle shading and dimension without overwhelming the design.
For the shaker element, I filled it with Bunny Hop Shaker Beads for movement and texture, and added Lemon Drop Jewelsto the flower centers for a touch of sparkle and shine.
It’s such a super cute spring-themed card, and I hope it inspires you to create something bright and happy today.
I decided to use vellum for my umbrella from the Springtime Holder Additions Dies. To elongate the umbrella arm, I partial die-cut to add length. The vellum just makes it whimsy, don’t you think? If you want to add color to the vellum, I recommend using alcohol markers on the backside of the vellum. I left it as is.
Use the solid layer of the Decorative Easter Egg die set to cut a little cardstock and a lot of tissue paper, then glue them together on the folded edge to make a fluffy Easter Egg surprise!
I hope you were inspired by this and video. Thanks so much for stopping by!
