Book Review and Giveaway

This darling card by Elise has cheerful spring colors of purple and green. The scene is set over a scalloped plaid background with a stamped bunny sitting between two baskets filled with flowers along with fluttering butterflies and a heat embossed sentiment. Take a closer look at the Lawn Fawn blog.

The flowers are starting to poke out of the ground, the birds are singing and soon we’ll start seeing little baby animals being born. That means that Spring is here and soon Easter will be on it’s way! One of the most enduring icons of Spring and Easter is the Rabbit, the tale of Peter Cottontail hopping down the bunny trail stays with us from childhood and makes Bunnies a perfect inclusion for our Springtime paper crafting projects. So, let’s take a look at some amazing card ideas for this time of year that include Bunny Rabbits.

Beneath each photo you’ll find a link, click it for more details like tutorials, products used and techniques.

Anouk used dies and colored cardstocks to create this darling card. A bunny is filling this convertible with eggs for Easter, grass and more eggs around the car help complete the scene. She used silver cardstock for metals on the car and white gen pen for some shine. Learn more at the Marianne Designs blog.

This pretty egg shaped card from Michelle uses stenciling and inking. She masked off the center section, stenciled the pattern top and bottom then the rabbits and flowers in the middle along with a stamped sentiment strip. Learn more at the Hero Arts blog.

Try pre-printed images for the base of your card if you’re in a hurry. Victoria used a bunny and egg print and turned it into a shaker card filled with fun confetti adding a die cut and inked sentiment. I spotted her idea on the Picket Fence Studios Instagram page.

For this sweet card Andrea stamped the bunny and flowers on a die cut tag, coloring them with Copic markers, adding a stamped sentiment strip. For her card background she die cut and trimmed tiny printed pattern papers for great color and texture. Find all the details at the Unity Stamps blog.

This fun bunny duo card shows of Kerri’s amazing coloring skills! She stamped and colored her rabbits with Kalour colored pencils, cutting them out and placing them on a Kraft cardstock base, adding a sweet die cut sentiment too. Take a closer peek at the C.C. Designs blog.

This darling stamped card from Nicky has bunnies and their mice friends helping them pick strawberries for a sweet Spring birthday card. I love how she popped up the all stamped images over a soft pastel inked background. I came across this card on the My Favorite Things Instagram page.

This cheerful Easter card from Amy is sure to put a smile on anyone’s face this Spring! She stamped images from Mama Elephant using a masking technique and colored her images and well as created her amazing background with Copic Markers. Learn more at A Thousand Sheets of Paper blog.

Wow, check out all the detail on this fabulous card from Dori. She used stamps to create an Easter Egg shop inside a die cut matchbook style card. Some highlights are the scalloped roof, pop up sentiment and cute scenes of bunnies coloring eggs, colored with Copics and it all folds down into a matchbook! Learn more at the Art Impressions blog.

How much fun is this awesome dapper Rabbit card from Misty using products from Tim Holtz and Ranger? This cute stamped guy is wearing a suit and bow tie over top a die cut mixed media frame, stamped background and sewing. And the best part is his whiskers, they look real, right? Well, they are, she saved whiskers her cats natural shed (never, ever cut a cats whiskers!) for a special touch. Find out more at the Happy Ink Designs blog.

If it’s still a bit chilly wrap your rabbit in a scarf like Cathy did on her adorable card. Her bunny is die cut with a bit of color added with inking, he’s holding a sentiment strip and sitting on top of a pretty pink dry embossed background. Watch her video tutorial on the Simon Says Stamp blog.

What does the Easter Bunny drive? A carrot car of course! This fun card from Beth uses stamps from Whimsy with a cloudy stenciled sky and a rainbow of colors inked onto the scalloped die cut frame. I spotted her idea on the Bethwitching Cards Instagram page.

Thanks for joining me, I hope you’ve found some ideas and inspirations to include cute bunny rabbits on your Spring and Easter cards!
