March Card Class "Hippity Hoppity"
Here are the cards that we made in March's class. We did some rabbits in anticipation of Easter. We also bid farewell to Sale-A-Bration. All products and supplies used to make these cards are listed at the end of this post.
Card #1: Hoppy Birthday Card
Rabbits are one of my favorite critters. We used various punches to make this one. The fox builder punch was used for the head and body. For the head, we cut off the ears. Then used the largest petal from the blossom builder punch to cut out the rabbit ears. The top of the carrot is also from the fox builder punch--the one that is usually for the tip of the tail. The "a" in happy birthday was covered up with a shape that looks like a rabbit's tail and was punched from the Tree Builder punch; however, you could also use the small flower from the Blossom Builder punch.
Card #2: Peeps Bunny Card
I've been wanting to make a Peeps bunny for a long time. I was finally able to make one using the cookie cutter builder punch! Some minor "surgery" is needed--snip between the ears further so that the ears become longer, then follow a slight curve around the face to eliminate what was meant to be the gingerbread arms. Then use an Early Espresso marker to add the face and ta-da, it's a Peeps bunny! For the eggshell, punch a partial 1 1/2" circle and cut the edges for the cracked shell. I used a pencil eraser tip in perfect plum classic ink for the polka dots. The fringe scissors was used to make the grass. To make the clouds, a sponger dauber with craft whisper white ink was used.
Card #3: Doily Sentiment Card
This card features the lace doilies and Falling in Love designer series paper from the Occasions Catalog and the metallic ribbon from Sale-A-Bration. They can be designed to fit any occasion based on the sentiment used.
Card #4: Floral Birthday Card
This card features images from the Big on Birthdays stamp set. To create the shadowing, the wink of stella gold pen was used to trace over the words. It was also used to trace over the flowers after they were colored.
