  • Basic White Cardstock: 4" x 5-1/4"
  • Balmy Blue Cardstock: 3-3/4" x 5-1/4"

  • Splash of Sparkles Specialty Paper: 1" x 3" (die-cut trim and flowers)
  • Granny Apple Green Cardstock: 1" x 3" (die-cut grass)
  • Garden Green Cardstock: 2" x 3" (die-cut stems/leaves)
  • Basic White Cardstock: 1-1/2" x 3" (die-cut bunny)

Instructions
 

  • Fold the Granny Apple Green cardstock at the score line to create your card base. Adhere the 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White cardstock inside the card.
  • Using a Blending Brush and the Balmy Blue ink pad, lightly sponge the center of the 3-1/2" x 5" Basic White cardstock. Stamp the "Happy Easter" sentiment at the bottom of the cardstock using the Balmy Blue ink pad.
  • Adhere the Basic White cardstock to the 3-3/4" x 5-1/4" Balmy Blue cardstock; adhere to the card front.
  • Stamp the bunny onto the 1-1/2" x 3" scrap of Basic White cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento ink. Color in using the Bronze & Ivory Stampin' Blends. Run through the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine and die-cut the bunny using the Easter Basket dies. Set aside.
  • Using the Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine and the Easter Basket Dies, die-cut the basket from the Crumb Cake cardstock, the bow from the Balmy Blue cardstock, and the basket trim plus 2 flowers from the Splash of Sparkles Specialty Paper. Also cut the grass from the Granny Apple Green scrap and 2 of the stem/leaves from the Garden Green cardstock.
  • To assemble all the die-cuts, adhere the Splash of Sparkles Specialty Paper trim to the top of the basket; add the Balmy Blue bow. Add the grass to the back of the basket. Using the Bunny die-cut as a guide, adhere the 2 stems/flowers to the cardstock, then add the bunny using adhesive. Adhere the basket "over" the bunny using Stampin' Dimensionals only on the basket (not the handle).

Notes

Worker Bee (for Confident Cardmakers)
Worker Bee projects are designed for the crafter who has a bit more time and enjoys creating a handmade card that features a technique or tool. In many cases, a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine is required for die-cutting and/or embossing.
