Every bunny will love this card.

Easter Paper Projects

Make this card in no time at all using patterned papers and a small punch. Glue a piece of patterned paper to a sheet of white card stock for durability. Then cut a rectangle of another patterned paper, triple-matted it with green and white, and used decorative scissors to edge the matting. After adhering all three layers to the front of the card, cut three triangles by hand from orange paper and punched green stems with a small oak-leaf punch. Then glue the carrots to the center of the matted rectangle.

For this two-page layout, create an Easter Bunny paper-piecing complete with watering can. Draw inspiration from a pattern in a tole painting book, lightly chalking the edges for dimension. A metallic paper watering can and wire water complete the accent.

This page captures both the joy
and the hoppy-ness of Easter.

Use wire-look stickers as page embellishments, customizing them slightly by deckling the edges. Use the photo-realist accents if you like.
