The printed Savvy Cards were used to start this  Easter greeting.  These cards are green on the bottom and white on the top half.  The white pinked strip in the center was made with pinking scissors.  After the strip was cut, it was glued to the center.  It's a simple detail that adds both dimension and style to the overall look of the card.

This clever card shows what you can do with a bit of imagination.  Taking the large solid tulip stamp, we only inked the greenery from that stamp and add eggs for flowers.  Notice the nice shading on the picket fence.  It was done by laying a piece of scratch paper down to mask the edge and then adding ink with a dauber.   Click on the picture to see the greeting inside.
Items used:
E4544 - large solid tulip
B4790 - small egg
ColorBox ink - marigold, heliotrope, aqua, moss green
Easter Place Card

Notice how the eggs are double stamped on this sample. First they are stamped in their main color. Then they are masked and stamped slightly off center to create a shadow. Using an exacto knife, cut around the top of the eggs.  Once the place card is folded the eggs really stand out.  The soft color of the colored pencil used to write the guests name, adds the finishing touch.
Items used:
Impress Easter Egg - large
Colorbox ink - seaglass, orchid, canary, heliotrope
Prismacolor pencils

Tag Card
Take a close look and you'll see that this card is actually a jumbo shipping tag folded in half. We stamped it using the dot stamp with silver ink. Click on the photo to see the inside of the card. The vellum insert was attached to the tag with the satin ribbon which when tied also adds a decorative touch.
Items used:
A4449 - dot
Jumbo white shipping tags
Colorbox silver ink
Bunny punch

Bunny Charm Card
The beautiful detail of the bunny charm makes this handmade card a gift in itself. The bunny charm is hollow on the back side so we used mounting tape to attach the charm to the blue circle tag. The silver layer was added to accent the other silver elements in this card. We used our 1/8" anywhere hole punch to make the hole in the card that lines up with the hole in the circle tag. To finish, the pieces were tied together using Midori ribbon.
Items used:
Silver rimmed circle tags - blue
Silver text paper
Memory Box Cards - pink

Bunny Punch Card
Double sided adhesive (Peel N Stick) was layered on top of a piece of pink paper. Then the bunny was punched out. We peeled off the top of the double stick sheet and applied the clear beads. The bunny was then mounted on a small piece of celery colored card stock. The piece was framed by the mini square window.
Items used:
Bunny punch
Beads
Peel N Stick
Memory Box Mini Square - chalk

Bunny Oval Card
One of the neat things about rubber stamps and punches is that 10 people can own the same image but the projects they make with it will all look different.  Here we did the same technique with the bunny punch as on the card above but we chose to use the oval cards and layers with the angel lace paper.
Items used:
Bunny punch
Bead
Peel N Stick
Angel Lace Paper
Memory Box Oval Cards - butter
Memory Box Oval Layer - pink
