Wacky Wednesday Challenge #2

Happy Wednesday everyone!  I am hosting Rubbernecker’s Wacky Wednesday weekly challenge today.  My challenge is to create a card using any kind of fold other than the traditional middle fold. I decided to create a Stair Step Fold card and to use these adorable bunnies from the Easter Collection.

KC Bunny With CArt 3 To create my card base I followed the directions that were provided by Lynne on the Technique Lover’s Challenge a while back. I cut a piece of cardstock for my base that is 10.5”X 5”.  I scored the lines at 1.25”, 2.5”, 4.25”, 6” and at 8.25”. I folded with hills and valleys, like an accordion, making sure that the smallest fold (1.25”) was folded down for my card front.

I stamped my bunny images on scrap watercolor paper, colored with a brush and reinkers and then cut out.  I used my Kittie Kits Outdoor Master and created a little tree scene for the back ground layer and two ground layers for both the front and middle layer. I cut the grassy edges and the tree tops KC Bunny With CArt 3 a with deckle scissors to give a natural look. I used my ¼” circle hole punch to cut out several colored circles and trimmed the edges with my snips to create all the little eggs for the scene.  I attached the girl bunny right on the tree layer and popped her ears and bow up with rolled up glue dots for a little for dimension.  I attached the bunny with the wheelbarrow on the second layer and attached the bow and sentiment to the front.  I thought this created the sweetest little dimensional card scene.

    KC Flower and Bud I got to play in the SCS Color Challenge last night and tried my hand at the Crimped Envelope Pocket card.  It is very simple to do but creates a very sweet and different card design. I used an image from Rubbernecker  KK Originals Floral Collection.  I left my little insert blank to use for a note to send to my mother-in-law.
