Easter’s on its way in less than a week! This cute Easter card features Stampin’ Up!’s Easter Bunny stamp set and coordinating Easter Bunny Punch. (Hint: If you’re too late for Easter, this cute card can also be used to welcome a new baby or celebrate a child’s birthday.) Another hint: The stamp set and punch are retiring from the catalog. Beginning April 9, 2024, the Easter Bunny stamp set is on clearance for $9.50 and the Easter Bunny Punch is $17.60.

Here’s a sample of the same layout as a baby card. I changed the background to Petal Pink as well as the ribbon and Designer Series Paper. The sentiment comes from the Happy Labels stamp set.

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.
