Fancy Favor Punch Art Bunny Box

Hello Stampers! Today's project is one that my Online Cards & Projects Club members and my local club members will be doing this month. It features the Fancy Favor Die for the Big Shot. If you are in the Online Club, you will receive the box with DSP already attached and die cut for you. You'll also receive all of the punched pieces to make the Punch Art Bunny and everything else seen on this project. Isn't it cute?

The DSP is from Shades of Spring DSP pack, which comes in soft, spring shades. I chose to use the pinks & yellows for this project, but it also has pastel green & purple, too. 

Pink round rhinestone brads hold the handle on and add a touch of bling.

The Chocolate chip satin ribbon dresses up Mr Bunny for the Easter (or Spring) parade.

Here is a video on how this box was made:

 Cute and easy!

Punch Art Easter Bunny Card

Hi Stampers! Gosh, I'm late posting today! I usually try to have my post up by 7am EST. This move is taking up all of my paper crafting time! LOL!

Both my Local and Online Cards & Projects Club members will make this bunny and an adorable Fancy Favor Box to put him on this month. I'll show that project and a video of how to put it together tomorrow, but today I have a video of how to make Mr Bunny:

With All My Heart Card Box

Hello! Today's project is a box that is made from one sheet of 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock, and it holds several cards and envelopes. I have 4 of each in mine, but it would probably hold more cards without thick embellishments. 

We had our SUpreme Stampers Soiree on Saturday, which is the quarterly meeting of our team of demonstrators. Our awesome leader, Catherine, puts so much work and effort into these meetings, and they are so fun! I demonstrated this box for the gals who were there, and I told them that I'd film a video of how to make it. So here it is:

Pretty easy, huh? Here are the photos of the template that I use with the measurements on them. Click to enlarge the photos:
