Easter Bunny stamp set

THIS OR THAT?

Do you need an Easter card?

or a Baby card?

 

Do you like the background plain?

Or do you like the background embossed like a quilt?

 

This is one of the cards 

that everyone joining me for my March monthly classes will be making!

They will get to choose many different options when creating this card.

 

NOTE:  There is a coordinating Easter Bunny Punch that goes with this stamp,

BUT the Easter Bunny Punch is sold out & not orderable right now.

It will be back in stock around May 15th, 2023.

Which one of these bunnies do you like the best?

Which color do you prefer?

Look at how I stamped the carrot directly over the bunny paws.

I colored the stems green.

AND THEN.......

I stamped the carrot bottom onto a strip of Basic White CS,

colored it & fussy cut it out scissors.

I attached it using a mini dimensional- directly over the stamped carrot.

This bunny I made into an Easter card & I didn't emboss the background.

Check out the cute little carrot that I stamped, colored, fussy cut out with scissors & 

added to the bunnies paws- attaching it with a mini dimensional.

OR would you rather have a baby card?

Notice how I adhered the DSP strips onto the Pool Party CS base

AND then I ran it thru the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine, 

using the NEW (starburst pattern) from the Basics 3D Embossing Folder Pack.

 #161598- Basics 3D Embossing Folders= $30.00 (package of 3 different images)

To me these look like-

Crosshatch pattern, Dots pattern & Starburst pattern

Isn't this embossed background just so cool!

AND

I think this bunny is adorable too.

I hope you like it too!

 

Here are the supplies & measurements.

Naturally Gilded Specialty DSP

 

WOW!

Check these out.......

WHICH do you like better?

THIS (black)? or THAT (white)?

 

On the black one I did a fun embossed resist technique!

This is an old technique that has been around forever.

 

This card is one that everyone stamping with me at my March monthly classes will be making!  They can choose if they want a black base or just want to leave it white!

 

If you CLICK ON THE LINKS BELOW you'll find other posts 

I have previously done over the years with this embossed resist technique.

https://stampwithsusie.blogspot.com/2013/03/by-tidedoing-embossed-resist-technique.html

How did I do this?

NOTE:  This is messy, you might want to wear rubber gloves or use kleenex to hold down the DSP, so that you don't touch it & get ink all over!

• I drug/rubbed my Memento ink pad directly across the foiled DSP.

• I then took a kleenex & wiped over the top of the whole piece of DSP.  By doing this- it will remove the ink that is on the copper embossed part to make it shiny again!

So here is the before & after looks!!

 

And check out all of these gorgeous DSP!
