"Hoppy Easter"

Easter has never really meant cards to me, and pastels aren't usually my thing, but when I found this Candy Bunny die from Lifestyle Crafts, I needed to snatch it up and make something. Luckily, I had exactly one Easter stamp and a few pieces of pastel orange, yellow, pink, and blue in my stash, so I could get my Easter-craft fix without buying any supplies.





My mouth was watering for Peeps the whole time I was tiling those bunnies onto the paper.

Here's a peek at the inside. My stamp was so tiny, I decided to make a little paper "ribbon" to help it stand out.




As soon as I stop being too lazy to take, upload, and crop photos of them, I've got tons of scrapbook pages to share. Stay tuned!

Candy Bunny Die is a great name for a band. A metal band.

I love the textured paper you used for the bunnies on the front. I don't think this is lame at all, and in fact, I think the inside is adoooorable. Teach us to make the ribbon! Did you just kind of fold it under at the sides, or is there something under there keeping it propped up?

Yes! Let's start a Rock Band named that next time you're in Ohio.

The paper ribbon is just folded so that it pops up. You could do it without a special tool, but I used my Martha Stewart scoring board to make the folds exactly an 8th of an inch apart. And the textured paper is from an old Mat Stack! It made me realize that I actually like those and might have to get more of them again.
