Easter is approaching so quickly! I really haven’t done any creating for it at all. I normally have my extended family over and I make them handmade invitations but this year it snuck up on me and I didn’t get any made in time – so I had to do an evite – I’m so sad.
I did create this card for my Stamp Club this month. I decided to use the Garden Girl stamp set with the cute little bunny. And the Springtime Foils Designer Series Specialty Paper from Sale-A-Bration. Sale-A-Bration is coming to and end – it will be here before we know it right there with Easter!
The Springtime Foils Specialty Paper is one of the Free Choices during Sale-A-Bration – you just need a $50 order and you can get the full pack. I used the stripes for my card and this paper works so beautifully with our Stampin’ Blends. I used the Pink Pirouette Stampin’ Blends to color in the stripes in between the silver printed stripes. It’s subtle but pretty. It would be fun to do bright colored stripes – and even cut the paper into egg shapes.
The bunny is stamped with Memento Black ink on Whisper White card stock – I did some coloring with my Smoky Slate Blends and cut him out. The fence is stamped in Crumb Cake ink and colored in with the Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends. Then add the grass in Wild Wasabi and die cut with a Stitched Circle. Behind it is a Wild Wasabi scalloped circle cut from the Layering Circles Frameltis dies.
I tied some Silver Bakers Twine around the foil layer before adhering it with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the front of my card. The small Happy Easter is from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set.
I “hop” you enjoyed this card. Thanks for stopping by.

There are less than three weeks left of Sale-a-Bration. Did you already get your favorite items for Free? One of the Level 1 choice is the beautiful Lots of Lavender stamp set. It reminds me of the Lavender farm that we visited last summer. We were on San Juan Island in Washington, State.
For today’s project though I decided to use Berry Burst for the flowers and I think they came out pretty too.
I created a box out of Berry Burst card stock added the Berry Burst Metallic Edged Ribbon and finished with a tag. Inside the box I used the Sweet Soiree Ready Shreddie – Crinkle-cut shredded paper that perfectly matches my box.
The outline image is stamped in Black, the flowers in Berry Burst, the leaves in Old Olive and the ribbon in Soft Sky. I added Wink of Stella over the flowers but you can’t really see it in the photo.
I also used the Celebrate You Thinlits Dies to cut the Celebrate out of Silver Foil. The dies are a Level 2 Sale-A-Bration choice. It’s tied on with some Soft Sky Baker’s Twine.
Sale-A-Bration ends on March 31st so make sure you do your shopping before then!
Thanks for stopping by today.

I wanted to share a recap of my Bubble Over Bingo event at the end of January. It was so much fun! I had a full house with all 12 seats in my little classroom taken. Everyone had fun playing Bingo games and making their projects. I also made everyone a little table treat for when they arrived and a little thank you gift. Everyone had a goody bag with the Bubble Over stamp set, Glitter & Clear Epoxy Shapes and supplies for their projects. The prize winners also went home with additional goodies – like the Bottles & Bubbles Framelits Dies, card stock packs, ribbon, Bubbles & Fizz Designer Paper and more. Everybody went home with something fun. I hope you’ll join me the next time I have a Bingo event.
Here are some photos from the day:
Here is a close up of the little Bottle Cap Treats that were on the table for everyone. I actually found bottle cap candy to go in them.
Items that I used to make these:
- Bubbles & Fizz Designer Series Paper (Sale-a-Bration item)
- Bubble Over stamp set

And this was the little thank you treat everyone received – a Coke branded lip balm was inside each little bottle box.

They were fun to make. Everyone also made three different cards using the Bubbles & Fizz bundle of products. I’ll share those in another post since this one is getting long. The grand prize winner was Jacquie and she had enough Stampin’ Rewards to get the Brusho Crystal Color assortment, and a bundle from the Occasions catalog as her free items.
A fun time was had by all!
