Sparkle N Sprinkle Spring Fling Blog Hop

Welcome to the Sparkle N Sprinkle Spring Fling Blog Hop! If you have come here by way of Lana's wonderful blog you are in the right spot! If you haven't, you might want to start at the beginning with Sparkle N Sprinkle's blog to make sure you have not missed a hop and to see all the info on the wonderful prizes that are being given away! Make sure that you leave a comment at each stop for a chance to win a prize. It has felt like Spring here for awhile so it was fun making some Spring cards. I have made three cards using the cute bunnies from the Star Bunnies Set 214. On my first card I used the Girl Bunny and had a lot of fun making it frilly and girly. I paper pieced her dress and ears and used Cerise and Sparkling Snow glitter to glam her up! I used the saying from the Spring Swirl set 425.



On my second card I used the cute little boy bunny and daisy stamps and the saying is from the Just for You set.


Lastly I made an easel card using another girl from the Star Bunnies set in her Easter hat. I also used the small butterfly and saying from the Fancy Butterflies set.


Thanks for stopping by. Remember to leave a comment on each designer's blog to be eligible for a prize. Now hop on over to Shona's blog to see her wonderful creations!

April, you never cease to inspire me! Love how you popped up the MS floral border punch. Your second card reminds me of Peter Cottontail because of the veggies and lattice work. All the images and elements on your blue and white spring card are so pretty! Thanks for always giving my eyes and heart something to feast upon!

I see bunnies in my yard almost every day and I always try to imagine them as people going home from work, playing with their kids, etc. - your cards bring that to fruition for me. Thanks,

I really like all three of your cards. On the first I love all the pink, the rose & the border punch & the lovely background paper. On the second I like the green background , the daisies, the picket fence border punch & how you colored the bunny. On the third I like the butterflies, the border punch flowers & the embossing folder.

These cards are all so great! I love the lacy and fence embellishments! The bunnies are so sweet! And those blue shiny butterflies on the last card--they rock! :)

All 3 of your cards get an A for adorable!
The girl bunny card is so feminine. All three of them use very effective die cuts.

Just can't pick a favorite. All of the cards are beautiful. Love all of the colors, textures and layouts.

FrancineB said...

Pretty cards. Love the little details you added to the cards. The bunny is very cute, too.

Shanna Shands said...

I love your recent tech post. I am hoping to get some of of those new ranger markers! I really love the second card the best. The first card I love how you framed the image and the papers you used. I love butterflies so the butterflies are my favorite part on the last card... but I love window cards or framed cards. Not sure what they are called but I love your cards!

E. Marie said...

April, sorry I am late commenting. Ended up a bit under the weather. Your cards are adorable!! Absolutely love them. Each one gets even cuter. I am going to have to get this adorable bunny set.

Julie Z said...

April these are all such adorable cards! I don't even know which one I like the most - each a bit different from the rest. All with such nice elements and colors. Really great cards!
