Easter is around the corner. And I have been having fun making bunnies with punches and dies. I have some cute boxes to share with you today. And next weekend I’ll have another punch art bunny to share with you. If Easter bunnies aren’t your thing, use different sentiments. These fun little animals would look adorable on gifts and cards for babies.
Today’s bunnies (inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest by Eva Dietz) are made with the Catch of the Day Dies, the Stitched Shapes Dies, the Heart Punch, and various size circle punches. I mounted my bunnies each on Baker’s Boxes that I decorated with designer series paper…two boxes with the Parisian Blossoms paper and one with the Ornate Garden paper which is debuting April 1. And then I shared them in my latest Online Paper Crafting Class.
I uploaded the recorded version of my Facebook Live video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). And then I was able to share it here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), scroll through the close-up photos, check out the products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, more close-up photos, and a product list for the box I demonstrated. To learn more about the Ornate Garden Suite of products debuting April 1, see below.

MY ONLINE PAPER CRAFTERS CLUB IS LOOKING FOR NEW MEMBERS We are looking for more to join our online Paper Crafters club.

I hope you haven’t put away those heart punches. As you can see from this card, they can be used year round.
Fellow demonstrator JoAnn Pollock shared some fun ideas with us this month in her February 2020 blog posts (I love her bride and groom card on 2/12/20, the paw print card on 2/13/20, and the strawberry card on 2/21/20.) And I was very inspired to make a couple punch art cards of my own using this Heart Punch Pack from the 2020 Spring Catalog, the Little Ladybug Stamp Set (the free bonus stamp set that can be earned with a $300 party order or single order), the coordinating Ladybug Dies, and the Christmastime Is Here Designer Paper which is still available. This may seem like a strange combination, but check out how well they work together in the following three cards.
This is my version of the strawberry card. I punched the two hearts from cardstocks that coordinated with the two shades of red in the designer paper (Poppy Parade and Cherry Cobbler). Then with another coordinating color, Mossy Meadow, I used the dies from the Ladybug Dies to create the tops of the berries. The seeds are stamped then colored in with the rain image in the Under My Umbrella Stamp Set.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products I used linked to where you can find them in my online store.
PDF Tutorial…Click here to access and download a direction sheet for this card.
Just in time for St. Patrick’s Day, the heart punch makes a great four leaf clover. So I paired up the adorable ladybug image holding a clover with this giant one made with the hearts, added a stem (that I punched from the heart punch as well), and planted it in the ground made from the grass die in the Ladybug Dies.

This last card makes me giggle. I was brainstorming what I’ve made with heart shapes in the past, and remembered some scrapbook pages I designed with the contents of a past Paper Pumpkin kit which I shared on January 30, 2016. Click here to view them. The Little Ladybug stamp set has a sentiment that pairs well with this bra, too. So that’s what inspired me to make this fancy underwear card.

There is a new Mini Trimmer!! And guess what?! You can create full-size cards with it using a few simple tricks. So on Tuesday during my Online Paper Crafting Class on Facebook, I shared how to use this Mini Trimmer!) and I created a pair of Valentine cards featuring some fun new designer paper and the Peaceful Moments bundle (the Peaceful Moments Stamp Set and Poppy Moments Dies).
I uploaded the recorded version of my Facebook Live video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). And then I was able to share it here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), scroll through the close-up photos, check out the products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.

Two more ideas for all of you who received the Something for Everything December 2019 Paper Pumpkin kit
I love the challenge each month of coming up with my final project design (a gift for 5 of my lucky subscribers) using my leftovers from what I’ve already created with my kit. And as you may guess from what I’ve made and shared already on December 21 and January 2, there weren’t that many supplies left over from my kit. But I did it!
I used the polka-dot pattern on the envelope flaps and the green circle stickers to punch out 5 pair of snowmen I needed 2 snowmen per project because they are back to back sandwiching the ribbon to make these bookworm bookmarks.
Here is the bookworm being used in my Outlander book. Can you see the snowman shape upside down in the body of the bookworm? I made and shared a version of these in my last Facebook Live on December 22nd. Below are the measurements and directions for making these bookmarks and holders with the Something for Everything kit supplies.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of extra products I used linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements…
Whisper White Thick Cardstock
2-1/4” x 8-1/2″
Scrap for punching Starburst for sentiment piece
Basic Black Cardstock
Scrap for punching 2-1/4″ Circle for sentiment layer
Kit envelope flaps or circle stickers
Scraps for punching two snowman shapes
Kit gold sticker sheets
Scrap for punching heart from the Dog Builder Punch
1/8″ x 2-1/4″ strip
Kit card base
2-1/4″ x 2-1/4″
Gold Metallic-Edge Ribbon, Black Glittered Organdy Ribbon, or Old Olive/Pretty Peacock Reversible Ribbon
12″
Directions…
Punch two snowmen. (To get two from one circle sticker, cut the sticker in half equally. Then use a sticky note to guide them into the punch. This will help you to fit them in that amount of space better.)
Connect them together back-to-back using Tear & Tape Adhesive while sandwiching one end of the ribbon between.
Color small black circles in the centers of two large pearls to create eyes. Draw on the mouth and stick on the eyes to make the face for your bookworm.
Position the bookworm towards the top of the 2-1/4″ x 8-1/2″ Whisper White base. Then attach (with two Glue Dots on the outer edges) the Basic Black 2-1/4″ Circle so it becomes a pocket for the worm’s body. Then fold up the ribbon and attach (with Tear & Tape Adhesive along the outer edges) the bottom 2-1/4″ x 2-1/4″ card base piece so it becomes a pocket for the trailing ribbon.
Add the stamped sentiment, the gold heart, and the gold strip.
I shared the first one (on the right in the photo above) along with other alternate projects in a how-to video on December 21st. Click here to see that video and more photos of that card.
I didn’t list directions here for making this type of card since this card is better explained in a video. But because this green card is a little different, I’ve listed a couple tips to finish off this version of this card. You can also see this card shared in Stampin’ Up!’s December 2019 kit Facebook Live. Below are views of all the sides when the card is assembled.
Here are the details if you wish to recreate this.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of extra products I used linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Stamp off to get a lighter Terracotta Tile Orange ink for the trailing flowers.
Attach the sentiment piece with a Dimensional under the left edge and a Glue Dot under the right. Trim up the excess AFTER adding to the card.
Use an Embossing Buddy to get the “sticky” off the back of the flower and leaf stickers if you wish to raise them up onto Dimensionals. On my card my left flower and both leaves are up on Dimensionals.
Keep the decor within the triangular borders so you can fold your card in half to mail.

#APaperPumpkinThing
Welcome to our monthly “A Paper Pumpkin Thing” blog hop! See what I have to share. Then check out all the other blogs in the hop to see additional creative alternate paper crafting project ideas that we each came up with using the contents of the December 2019 Something for Everything Paper Pumpkin kit. To follow the hop and see other creative project ideas, simply scroll down and click on the names of other hop participants.
Here is a photo of the intended projects from this month’s kit: 12 attractive all-occasion cards (4 of 3 designs).
I’ve already shared a few other alternate projects using the contents of this kit on December 21st.
Today I have for you two more projects: a beautiful birthday sampler framed décor piece and a super simple thank you/thinking of you card. I’ll start by sharing my card.
Products I used for these projects… See below for a complete list of extra products I used linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements to prepare…
Basic Black Cardstock
3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″
Directions…
Adhere the Basic Black Cardstock to the front of the Gold Foil-Edged Card with SNAIL.
Use 2″ Circle Punch and punch as much of this shape as you can from the corner of a used up sticker sheet from the kit so that the circle includes the “branch cut-out.”
Stamp sentiment with Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto the banner piece from the kit.
Add this to the front of the card with Dimensionals from the kit. Add the gold 2″ diameter punched out partial circle above the sentiment so the flat edge meets up or tucks behind the sentiment banner. (Adding these at the same time will help with placement to make everything feel balanced on the card.)
Embellish with rhinestones from the kit. I noticed the one on the left on my card shifted a bit before I took the photos.
This is the second project I made: a beautiful birthday sampler framed décor piece.
I found the frame at Hobby Lobby. I can’t find a link to it online. Guessing it was a clearance item? It was originally this black frame with the wood background. And in the center were these welded wire words: boss babe. I removed the words which left the frame with 4 holes. So I attached my sampler to the front of this using the longest of my Metallic Brads.
I recommend adding the Basic Black Cardstock with the brands first and THEN building the designs on top of that. I didn’t do that. I made the sampler first and then found the frame.
Measurements to prepare…
Basic Black Cardstock
8-1/2″ x 8-1/2″
Call Me Clover striped card base from kit
solid green: 2-1/2″ x 5-1/4″
striped pattern: 2-1/2″ x 2-1/2″
Crushed Curry card base from kit
solid yellow: 2-1/2″ x 5-1/4″
polka-dot pattern: 2-1/2″ x 2-1/2″
Terracotta Tile floral card base from kit
solid dark orange: 2-1/2″ x 5-1/4″
floral pattern: 2-1/2″ x 2-1/2″
Directions…
Use SNAIL to adhere the cut card base pieces to the Basic Black 8-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ base.
Stamp the sentiments with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, and trim ends.
Add two of the largest gold foliage stickers. Use one full one on the solid green section. Use 1/2 of one on the yellow section. And use the other 1/2 on the dark orange section about one inch from the left edge.
Add the gold swirl sticker in the middle.
Now add the sentiment pieces with Dimensionals.
Use the Embossing Buddy to pounce powder on the back sides of some large and small flowers and some leaves to remove the stickiness. And add flowers and leaves (the non-sticky ones with Dimensionals, the sticky ones just flat as is) to the sampler as shown.
Finally embellish with rhinestones.
I’m not sure if you made the connection already. But I got the inspiration for my scrapbook page that I shared on the 21st after making this sampler. Yes, I shared my scrapbook page first. But I had already made the sampler beforehand when I was planning for this blog hop and loved it so much that I had to turn it into a page, too.
I hope I inspired your creativity with what I shared today!

MY ONLINE PAPER CRAFTERS CLUB IS LOOKING FOR NEW MEMBERS We are looking for more to join our online Paper Crafters club. The commitment is to order at least $25 worth of Stampin’ Up! product in each of 6 consecutive months. In one of those months, you would reap the hosting rewards (free merchandise based on the club orders). And then you’d also be able to get in on monthly product perks that would be sent to you along with your monthly club cards.
I’m very excited for the new 2020 Spring Catalog to debut on January 3rd! Last month I was enjoying creating with some of these new products and discovered how the “cute as a bug” sentiment in the new Little Ladybug stamp set worked so well with the worm shape you can get from the Snowman Builder Punch. I took these supplies and designed a few cards and bookworm bookmarks.
Then on Wednesday during my Online Paper Crafting Class on Facebook, I shared how to make one of the cards and the adorable bookmark and holder. I uploaded the recorded version of my Facebook Live video to my YouTube channel (since I know not everyone is ON Facebook). And then I was able to share it here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video (you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog), scroll through the close-up photos, check out the products list below the photos, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for the cards and bookmarks that I demonstrated.
