If you are looking for stamps for a “Happy Easter” card, then check out this adorable stamp set, Fable Friends.  It is in the Stampin’ Up! Occasions Catalogue (available until May 31st) and has some very sweet images to make your Easter cards.  And it also has some sweet saying that can turn your cards into baby cards, friendship cards or just “happy spring” cards (we are sure ready for Spring here in Ontario!)

I got this card in a demonstrator card swap from the talented Liane Binder from British Coloumbia.  I love how Liane made a frame for her card using the Rectangle Stitched Framelits dies (one of my favourite new dies from the Stampin’ Up! Occasions Catalogue). To do this you can either cut the cardstock with both frames at the same time or one at a time.  Then she used Foam Adhesive Strips to raise the frame up on the card.

She coloured the image in with Blends markers (see more on Blends here) and she made the sweet little clouds with the Up & Away Thinlits dies.  See the full supply list at the bottom of this post.  The rabbit was coloured and then cut out with Paper Snips scissors.  We call this “fussy cutting” because it is a little “fussy” without a matching die, but it really doesn’t take that long and the effect of the popped up bunny is worth it.

The bunny image makes me think the little Peter Rabbit that I had on my son’s Beatrix Potter dishes when they were little.

I can’t wait to play some more with this adorable stamp set.  Check back tomorrow to www.StampwithJenn.com for another Fable Friends card.
