Spring Sneak Peek Week: Introducing Big Bunny & My Heart Stamps

Hello and welcome to the first day of our Spring Sneak Peek Week!  All this week I will be sharing cards showcasing our newest collection which will be available for purchase this Friday!

Card No. 1: Today I am sharing ideas using our new Big Bunny Stamps and My Heart Stamps. For this card, I started by pairing the rabbit with the oversized carrot from our Bunnyville Stamps. To frame him I layered our Stitched Arch Dies over a blue heart print from our Flirty Flowers Paper pack. The Big Bunny set includes a really versatile oversized "greetings" word stamp with several supporting words which I heat-embossed onto our Brilliant Banner 2 Dies cut from our Striped Silly Paper and Polka-dot Parade Paper packs. I love this complimentary color palette!

Card No. 2:
What's better than one Big Bunny? Two of course! I created a bunny couple using the bows for the girl's ears and the boy's neck. I was able to borrow the scalloped heart from the Holiday Hugs Stamps which I thought worked well with the Tulip bouquet. In my mind, they have just exchanged gifts for Valentine's Day! I was able to ink my background to match my Copic coloring by blending Picked Raspberry & Seedless Preserves Distress Inks. I completed my simple card by adding a stitched strip to the bottom by elongating our Slimline Pennant Dies. This gave me a nice place to stamp the greeting from our Heart Bouquet Stamps, paired with a couple of the mini hearts from the Big Bunny Stamps.

Card No. 3: Up next, I have an Easter card, focusing on the Easter basket and oversized egg from the Big Bunny Stamps. I started by adding the egg print patterned paper from our Spring Fever Paper pack and then layering a smaller Stitched Rectangle die-cut in the center. I was able to spell out the word "Easter" for my greeting using the letters from our Hayley Uppercase Alphabet and Hayley Lowercase Alphabet together with the "greetings" word from the Big Bunny Stamps. I was able to create a little border by lining up three of the large Easter eggs and I love how they tie in with the background paper.

Card No. 4: For this Valentine's Day card using the Big Bunny Stamps, I paired the new rabbit with the bear from our Holiday Hugs Stamps for a fun slimline-style card. This time I focused on the two letters that come with the Big Bunny Stamps. For my background, I inked up my white cardstock using Picked Raspberry Distress Ink which I faced to white in the center. I then stamped the mini hearts from the set in a random pattern on the background in a similar Pink color for a tone-on-tone effect. I added stitching to the edges using the die from our Slimline Basic Border Dies. Adding the stitching to the short edges was tricky to get them to fit through my die-cutting machine, but I was able to roll it through halfway at an angle, flipping it around until all four corners were impressed with the stitching. Finally, I added my "Happy Valentine's Day" greeting stamped with Fuchsia ink from our new My Heart Stamps. This 3x4 stamp set comes with 2 really nice oversized handwritten greetings perfect for Valentine's Day!

Card No. 5: For my last Big Bunny card of the day, I started by inking up my white cardstock panel using Twisted Citron Distress Ink. I then flicked on long blades of grass using my Copic Markers in G07, YG06, and FYG2, leaving about an inch untouched along the bottom portion of my card. I positioned my bunny in the center with two Easter baskets behind her on either side and colored the tulip bouquet she's holding in bright spring colors to match. 

I then added scalloped lace & stitched edges to a strip of 1" high white cardstock to ground my rabbit using our Ribbon & Lace Border Dies. I then cut a lavender scalloped border with a stitched edge from that same border die set to layer behind my lacey scallop to add a touch of color and make the lace stand out against my background. Lastly, I stamped heat embossed the word "Easter" with Versamark Ink and White Detail Embossing Powder onto a scrap of that same lavender cardstock and paired it with the "greetings" word stamped in VersaFine Onyx Black ink and die-cut it with the coordinating Big Bunny Dies

Card No. 6: For my last card of the day I have a card showcasing the second wonderful greeting from our new My Heart Stamps. This particular greeting is sized perfectly to fit within the largest heart from our Stitched Heart Dies (and Scalloped Heart Dies). I love how the coordinating My Heart Dies also allows you to cut out and layer these sentiments over floral arrangements and other busy backgrounds to help them stand out and take center stage. For this card, I cut my background from black cardstock using our Bursting Hearts Dies and then alternated three different shades of pink cardstock scraps in tapered strips which I adhered to the back of my die-cut so that my rows of hearts looked like sunbursts.
