Poppin' by spring card

 I have a fun card for you today using current products and mashing with some last chance products.  I hope you enjoy it.  I had a lot of fun putting it together and I'm sure the recipient will love it as well.  I wanted to use the dies in the 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar to make something with the bunny from Easter Basket.  Initially, I had another design in my head, however, by the time it made it to paper, this card was the result.  Far less busy than my original idea and oh so cute!  To watch the video replay on how I put this card together, be sure to head on over to my YouTube channel by clicking this link.




Supplies and measurements: 
Easter Basket bundle 166947 (includes stamps & coordinating dies)
Poppin' By stamp set 165487 (for outside sentiment) (discounted & last chance while supplies last)
12 Days of Crafting Advent calendar 167335 (discounted & last chance while supplies last)
All in a row embossing folder 166989
Hues of Blue Flowers 165930
Baker's twine essentials pack 155475
Balmy Blue cardstock for card base, 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" scored in center at 4 1/4"
Easter Joy Specialty paper 166939
    4" x 5 1/4" & 1/2" x 3 5/8" 
Ink Pads: Azure Afternoon, Pretty in Pink, Balmy Blue, Pebbled Path (retired) or Basic Gray

A Stampin' Up! sketch card with the 2025 Crafting Advent Calendar stamps

I recently received the new 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar for 2025 by Stampin' Up!  I wanted to see what it was all about.  My friend Tracy suggested I open one window each day and try to make a card with the contents.  Today is Day 1 and I started with just the stamps.  The stamps are all occasion stamps, even though the box itself is decorated for Christmas.  I thought I would make a card for a December birthday, using just the stamps and some additional cardstock/DSP.  Stampin' Up! sent out some sketches to those of us who participated in World Card Making Day last Saturday.  I decided to incorporate one of those sketches into my project for today.  

You will find the video tutorial for this card over on my YouTube channel.





Measurements and Supplies:
12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar 167335 (just the stamps for today)
The Right Words 165316 (for inside sentiment)
    2 pieces 1 7/8" x 5" (different patterns, I used the front and back of one sheet for mine)
Old Olive two-tone cardstock 2 5/8" x 2 7/8" (2 pieces, use one side light and one side dark)
    two pieces 1/2" x 3 5/8" for inside (one light side, one dark)
Basic White cardstock for stamping images & inside layer 3 5/8" x 4 7/8"
Thick Basic White cardstock for card base 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored in center at 4 1/4"
nail buffing block or light sandpaper
Ink Pads: Pool Party, Pretty in Pink, Real Red, Cherry Cobbler, Darling Duckling
