Circle Sayings Easter Card
In today’s post, I share a card using Stampin’ Up!’s Circle Sayings Bundle. Find it in Stampin’ Up!’s 2023-2024 Annual Catalog. Since the catalog launched in May of last year, I’ve been using Circle Sayings a lot. In fact, I made it a goal to create a card for every holiday. So, here’s my Easter version. In addition, I use stamps from the Easter Bunny stamp set, also found in the Annual Catalog.
Note: If you love this set and don’t have these sets, grab them soon. Both are being retired to make room for new Stampin’ Up! product. The coordinating 2 3/8-inch Circle Punch is a carryover item.
Here’s the inside of the card:
