DCM – Mad March Hare

I’ve finally managed to return to a bit of crafting after a busy few weeks and some book club reading in the spare time I had!

This week’s Daring Cardmakers theme is Mad March Hare inspired, and I definitely took this opportunity to get a start on my Easter cards for this year.

Card | Handmade by Natty | Avery Elle Happy Spring Stamps

Paper: Pebbles – Spring Fling (r)
Stamps: Avery Elle – Happy Spring (r), Concord & 9th – Wreath Turnabout, Waltzing Mouse – Compact Sentiments (r), WPlus9 – Heartfelt Holidays
Die: Lawn Fawn – Large cross-stitched square stackables
Other: GinaK Wreath Builder Template

Card | Handmade by Natty | Avery Elle Happy Spring Stamps

When I sat down to make this card I already knew that I wanted to use the bunny stamp from an old Avery Elle spring set to create a wreath to test out my new GinaK wreath builder templates.

I’m hoping to make a good few more spring wreath cards based on this design or something similar and this was the guinea pig outing. 🙂

Some of the smaller elements actually come from some other stamp sets, even a Christmas one!

But I think this first outing of the template was a success! And a good project for crop night. I can finally travel light with a few inks, stamp sets, and my misti.

Make sure you check out the wonderful projects for this week’s challenge over on the DCM blog here.

Happy crafting!

    I love this card. Making the images into a wreath is a fabulous idea.
