Every Bunny Loves Easter!

 Happy Friday!

Tasha here sharing a happy Easter card featuring the new 5869 - Easter Bunny Puppet Set and 5892 - Easter S2 Paper Pack from Art Impressions!

I started the card by stamping the bunny character and her accessories with black ink before coloring the images with Copic Markers. I used the included dies to cut out all the pieces and used liquid glue to attach the layers. This set includes several clothing pieces to make different outfits and I love this little dress, perfect for Easter!
For the background, I used a stencil to create sun rays and cut grass from green pattern paper. I think these colors and patterns give a Springtime feel to the design. I also attached a glittery scalloped frame to add a little sparkle. The yellow color is so pretty!

The 5869 - Easter Bunny Puppet Set does not include any greetings, but Art Impressions has two awesome Easter Sentiment sets that work great with the adorable bunny stamp. I selected " Every Bunny Loves Easter!" and to coordinate with the colors used for the dress, I stamped the greeting with teal ink. I usually use black ink for stamping words, but it's fun to add a pop color!

Lastly, I attached a layer of Art Impression pattern paper and a layer of teal card stock to complete the design. Thank you for checking out today's card and I hope you are inspired to create a fun Easter card!

Have a great day!

Easter Shaker Card!

 Happy Friday!

Tasha here sharing a new card inspired by the current Art Impressions "Shake it Up!!" Challenge! I love making Easter cards and used the super cute 5504 - Happy Spring Set to make a fun shaker card!

For the main image, I stamped the bunny with black ink and used the included dies to cut the image out. To stick with a Spring theme, I used pastel shades for the eggs and his egg car; so cute!!!


For the background, I cut grass from pattern paper and added a piece of Ai pattern paper for the sky/background. I love all these colors! I also used Easter shaker pieces to go with the theme. 


The greeting "Happy Easter" is from the same stamp set but I attached little clay hearts to the flowers to bring in more color. I also used a scalloped die to add a pretty pink frame. I love the pop of color!

Lastly, I attached layers of pink paper, plaid pattern paper, and a yellow glitter pattern paper to complete the design. I hope you enjoyed today's card and are inspired to join in the challenge!

Have a wonderful day!

Sending Easter Wishes Card!

 Happy Friday!

Tasha here sharing an Easter card featuring the sweet bunny from the 5221 - Sending Love Cubbies Set from Art Impressions. This set is adorable and is perfect for Easter/Spring cards!



I started by stamping the bunny and letter before using the included coordinating dies to cut the images out. The mailbox also has a die and opens, but I stamped it directly on to the card. This bunny looks so cheerful!

For the background, I used markers to create the grass and added puffy blue clouds with a stencil and Distress Oxide Ink. For a little extra detail, I attached several teal enamel hearts to the sky. The tiny hearts are perfect for this type of card and I love the color!

After the ink dried, I stamped "Easter Wishes" from the 5733 - Easter Sentiments Set. The handwritten greeting looks so pretty and goes well with card's theme. 

Lastly, I added a layer of Ai pattern paper, pink paper, teal glitter pattern paper, and cream plaid paper. I think this card is great for Easter, but it could also work for a birthday, or as an everyday card for someone special!

I hope you enjoyed today's project and are having a wonderful day!

Spring Hello Friend Card!

 Happy Friday Friends!

Tasha here, sharing a cheerful card featuring the playful 5000 - Gotta Garden Set from Art Impressions. With spring on the horizon, I'm excited to dive into planting new flowers. This lovely lady from the set looks ready to enjoy gardening on a beautiful spring day.

For this card, I stamped the lady and used masking paper to protect her while I painted the sky and ground. Instead of using a cloud stencil, I made a unique blue background and added fluffy white clouds. The bright white clouds pop against the pretty blue colors.


To finish the card, I layered black cardstock, gold glitter paper, and a bright yellow plaid paper to match the blue colors. I adore blue and yellow combinations!

I hope you enjoyed today's project and are having a wonderful day!

Hoppy Valentine's Day Card by Tasha!

 Happy Friday!

Tasha here, excited to share a card inspired by the Art Impressions February Challenge. With Spring on the horizon, I'm drawn to cute bunny stamps, and this little rabbit from the 5737- Bunny & Chicks Set is just so sweet!

I started by making a red frame with a heart die and a white center card. Stamping the bunny in black ink, I masked it off to add green grass with Copic Markers. Using a cloud stencil and blue ink, I created a sky with white gel pen accents.



The greeting, "Some Bunny Loves You," in red ink, adorned with enamel hearts, added charm. I completed the card with red accents, silver glitter, and patterned paper, along with a "Happy Valentine's Day" sentiment.


I hope you feel inspired to create your own card with Art Impressions animal stamps!

Have a wonderful day!

Some Bunny loves You Card!

 Happy Friday!

Tasha here sharing a new Valentine's Day card inspired by the Art Impressions "You Spin Me Round" Challenge. For this card I'm featuring a bunny from the 5737 - Bunny & Chicks Set and Valentines Paper Pack.

Since the theme is to use circles, I decided to add a variety of circle die cuts to frame my little bunny image. I searched my craft dies to find circles that would work together and love how the different circle styles look!


For the little bunny, I stamped him with black ink and used gray Copic Markers for the colors. I also added a peachy pink color for his ears, nose, and little cheeks; he is just too cute! I also used markers to draw in some green grass for the ground.


The greeting is from the 5221 - Sending Love Cubbies Set and it went perfectly on this Valentine's Day themed bunny card. I enjoy looking through my sets to mix-and-match greetings and characters, you can make endless projects when you mix your sets.

Lastly, I attached layers of card stock and Art Impressions pattern paper to complete the card. I had fun creating this card for the "You Spin Me Round" Challenge and hope you will participate too!

Have a wonderful day!

Here for the Chocolate Card!

Happy Friday! 

Tasha here sharing a delightful Valentine's Day card featuring the adorable 5401 - Easter Chicks Set. Mixing and matching sets is one of my favorite crafting techniques, and this card was so fun to create.



To start, I stamped the two darling chicks, along with a bow tie, flower, and a tiny chocolate heart box from the 5493 - Front Porch Valentines Set. It's amazing how different sets can complement each other perfectly! Once I finished coloring all the images, I used the coordinating dies included in the sets to cut them out. Having the dies makes crafting so much easier.



For the background, I cut grass out of plaid paper and used the sweet heart pattern paper from Art Impressions for the sky. These vibrant colors and hearts work perfectly with the Valentine's Day theme.

To add a fun sentiment, I stamped "Here for the Chocolate" from the 5733 - Easter Sentiments Set. I then used a small banner die to cut out the greeting and layered it on a larger banner cut from pink glitter pattern paper because who doesn't love a bit of sparkle?



Lastly, I added layers of cardstock, glitter pattern paper, and a few glitter enamel dots to add dimension and shine to the card. The final result is a cheerful and whimsical Valentine's Day card that's sure to bring a smile to someone's face.



I hope this project inspires you to mix and match your stamp sets and get creative with your cardmaking this Valentine's Day season! Have a wonderful day!
