Tutorial: Easter Tulips (and Bunny!)

 

The Fable Friends Bunny is complimented so nicely with the pretty pastel tulips and basket weave background.

 

 

Cut Cardstock:

 

Assembly:

Emboss the 5 1/8″ x 3 7/8″ piece of Whisper White cardstock with the Basket Weave embossing folder, then snail it to the 5 1/4″ x 4″ piece of Whisper White cardstock. The white border around the embossed piece will make it look more finished off.

Crop the 3 1/2″ x 2 1/4″ piece of Purple Posy cardstock with the second smallest shape from the Stitched So Sweetly dies, then cut it in half.

 

 

Use Memento ink to stamp the greeting from the Fable Friends stamp set onto the 2 1/4″ x 2″ piece of Whisper White cardstock. Crop with the second smallest die from the Stitched So Sweetly dies. Snail each half of the Purple Posy shape to the sides of the greeting, giving it a small border around the greeting.

 

 

Use dimensionals to attach this piece to the card front. Refer to  photo for placement.

Crop the 3 1/2″ x 2 1/4″ piece of Purple Posy cardstock with the second largest scalloped rectangle from the Stitched So Sweetly dies.

Use Stazon ink to stamp the bunny from the Fabled Friends stamp set onto the 3 1/4″ x 2″ piece of Whisper White cardstock. Use a Blender Pen to color the bunny with Crumb Cake, Petal Pink and Highland Heather ink. Crop with the second smallest of the wider rectangles from the Rectangle Stitched Framelits. Use dimensionals to attach this to the Purple Posy scalloped rectangle.

Attach to the card front using dimensionals. Refer to photo for placement.

Add two of the smallest pearls to the bunny’s jacket for buttons.

Use Highland Heather ink to stamp one large and one medium tulip from the Timeless Tulips stamp set onto the 5 1/4″ x4″ piece of Whisper White cardstock. (You may want to stamp off on a piece of scrap paper before stamping on the cardstock if you wish to have a lighter color of ink).

Use Granny Apple green ink to stamp two curved stems, two curved leaves and one straight leaf from the Timeless Tulips stamp set onto the same piece of Whisper White cardstock. Be careful how you position the images so that when you punch them out you don’t accidentally cut into the other images. The picture shows where you should stamp the images to avoid this.

 

 

Use the coordinating punch to punch out the large tulip and curved leaves. Fussy cut the medium tulip, stems and straight leaf.  Arrange the tulips on the card front and snail or glue in place. Refer to photo for placement.

Using the Dark Purple Posy Stampin’Blend marker, color about a 12″ piece of the Silver Metallic Edge ribbon. Tie a small bow and attach to the card front with a glue dot.

 

Inside: 

Use Memento ink to stamp the sentiment from the Fable Friends stamp set onto the remaining piece of Whisper White cardstock.

Use Granny Apple Green ink to stamp a portion of the stem and leaves from the Timeless Tulip stamp set to the lower left side of this piece. Use Highland Heather ink to stamp the tulip bud on top of the stem. Snail the Purple Posy strip near the top of this piece. Snail the completed piece to the inside of the card.

 

 

Envelope:

Use Granny Apple Green ink to stamp a portion of the stem and leaves from the Timeless Tulips stamp set onto the lower left corner of the envelope. Use Highland Heather ink to stamp the tulip bud on top of the stem.
