Happy Easter with Stampin' Up! Pierced Blooms dies

Wishing everyone a very happy Easter and may this year bring you closer to family and friends who you may have missed catching up last year. For us we were in lock down last year and spending Easter at home and not being able to go anywhere was all new territory so this year it is a relief that we have our freedom to go wherever we want....something which I am very thankful for!

My Easter card that I made is for my teen daughter and I wanted to make something fun and colourful but hopefully not too childish for her. For the bunny head I have used the oval and circle dies from Stitched Shapes which will be retiring soon. The ears were shaded with Rococo Rose ink using a blending brush and adhered to the circle to make the head. I have used the Black matt dots for the eyes, a shape from the Pierced Blooms die set for the nose (which is really the centre of a flower) both of which are from the January-June mini catalogue out now and drew the mouth using Black Stampin' Write marker.

The floral pieces were all cut from the Pierced Blooms die set and I had such fun arranging them around the head. Card stock colours used were Blushing Bride, Calypso Coral, Highland Heather, Melon Mambo, Petal Pink and So Saffron. I then added a bow from the same set in Blushing Bride and added Champagne Rhinestones to the floral crown on the bunny's head.

The DSP layer is from the In Good Taste pack and which I am so happy it will carry over to the new catalogue that you will be able to order products from 4 May. I have used the word 'Happy' from the Happiest of Birthdays stamp set and masked the remaining words in that sentiment. And lastly, the colourful letters have been cut from card stock adhered to the foam sheets using the Playful Alphabet die set for the word 'Easter'.

Shop for items in the Last-Chance Product Sale for those items you wished you had before they retire in May or June. Note, the 2020-21 Annual catalogue ends on 3 May and the January-June mini catalogue will end on 30 June.

Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you on Wednesday for the Art With Heart teams Colour Creations Showcase for one of the retiring 2019-21 In Colours: Terracotta Tile. Until then take care xx
