I had a few Easter cards to hand out on Easter Monday, and wanted them to be bright and cheerful for some friends at school. A couple were to thank my friends for some Easter gifts they gave to my son, and others were just to cheer them up during this week - state standardized testing!
Here's what I came up with:
I managed to make six of these in about an hour - easy to do when you are make smaller cards. First, I stamped the bunny on 2009 Polka Dot Basics paper in Kraft, Soft Stone, and Hibiscus Burst. I cut out the bunnies (super-easy!) and highlighted them with either a red gel pen or a pink marker. Then, I cut the 3x3 mats, inked the edges and added the grass to all of the mats. After stamping and coloring in the tree leaves, I added the rhinestones, sentiment and secured the bunnies. I left their ears loose so that they would look a little floppy. I added another white mat and then used New Leaf as the card base. Here's another angle:
On the inside, I included the sentiment "Sending You a Happy Hello" from the Sending You set.

My son (private school) had his first experience with testing this year. First grade and it was a week of testing. Seriously. He's 7. Crazy! The teachers were climbing the walls and ready to be done by Wed.
