Papertrey Ink February Release Countdown Day 3

Who's ready for more Easter/Spring inspiration? I'm sharing two cards with you today for day 3 of the Papertrey Ink February release countdown using some fabulous new products! I had so much fun stamping all of the bits and pieces for this card using the new Happy Bunnies stamp/die set. If you fell in love with the Simply Snowmen set for Christmas, you'll love these bunnies, too! Confession time: I think the bunnies are WAY cuter than the snowmen, but I'm a sucker for all things Easter/Spring!

Once I had all of the pieces stamped for my card, I hummed and hawed about what to do for the background until inspiration struck! I grabbed my Wild Blooms card from yesterday and toyed around with the idea of using the stencils for the bunny backdrop! I think it's just perfect; I chose two make the flowers on this background panel two different colors for variation and interest.

There are two sizes of bunnies, but only one made it onto this card; I ended up using the smaller bunny on my second card I'm sharing today, so make sure to scroll all the way to the end.

The "Happy Easter" sentiment is included in the Happy Bunnies stamp set and I stamped it and then die cut it using the new Love to Layer: Beautiful Brackets.

You can use the bow for either a bow-tie, a bow for the Easter basket, or for the bunny's ear, like I did on this card.

I had so much fun creating this card!

This next card is a bit of a mashup of a bunch of different new stamp sets that have been showcased over the last 3 days. The "new-for-today" stamps/dies are the Larger than Life: Spring die...I die cut it 3 times from Aqua Mist cardstock, glued them together, and then added some Hawaiian Shores ink to the top for an ombre look.

The scalloped pink label at the top is die cut using the new Iconic Easter die set and then I stamped the sentiment panel using Iconic Easter and the new Larger than Life: Spring sentiments stamp set.

I used the leftover bunny from my first card; this is the small size. I also used the cute wash bucket from the new Vase Collection 15 that was showcased on day 1.

I filled it up with grass from the previously released Weave-A-Basket Die, the carrots and smaller flowers from Happy Bunnies, and the larger flower from Vase collection 15. This card was super fun to make as well! Join me tomorrow for the 4th and final day of the countdown! Thanks for fluttering by!
