Easter die-cuts from a friend

 My friend, Donna (Design By Donna), kindly sent me three Easter die-cuts that included a line of cute bunnies in different positions with some embellishments like bows and carrots. Thank you so much, Donna!

I have made three Easter cards like this one:

I placed the line of bunnies behind a grassy plain. I added a little pink cardstock behind the cutout openings in the ears, a little pink chalk to their cheeks and a black dot for each eye. I also glued on the bows and carrots that Donna had included. She had cut everyuthing out of white cardstock, so it was easy-peasy to use a few alcohol markers to color them.

There are some small pieces of foam tape behind each bunny's head and ears to pop them up just a bit and add some dimension.

I cut a few clouds, inked their edges and glued them to my sky, except for the smallest one, which was popped up on foam tape.

The scripty sentiment was die-cut and adhered.

The sentiment on the inside was printed with my computer.

I die-cut two small Easter eggs for embellishments. I think some of my grandloves will enjoy receiving these.

I saw a card similar to this one on Pinterest. First, I covered the front of my A2 card with some blue DSP. Then I die-cut a branch, three eggs and three tiny bows, all from paper scraps. I also used a scalloped border die to cut the pretty edge on the card front.

After gluing down my branch, I used a white gel pen to draw three white lines to look like threads hanging from it. Then I glued on the eggs and bows.

This is what the card looks like on the inside when it is opened. Both sentiments were stamped.

It feels good to finally have a start on my Easter cards. I hope to make enough of them this week to send to family and friends. At the same time, I am making some to donate. In fact, yesterday I took eight Easter cards along with 8 all-occasion cards to the thrift store.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and remember to laugh--a little or a lot--every day.
