1.Cut card base, front and pocket pieces using the measurements above.
2.Attach Petal Pink card front to Strawberry Sorbet card base. Attach
pocket pieces using Foam Adhesive Strips along the side and bottom edges only. This will pop up the pocket, allowing the insert to slip inside.
3.Stamp rabbit, carrot, and grass from Easter Bunny stamp set on a scrap piece of Basic White card stock. Color using Stampin' Write Markers or Stampin' Blends, then fussy cut with scissors.
4. Paper Towel Background: I often incorporate paper towels that I've used to clean stamps or blot watercolors in my crafting. The colors are always interesting, plus the paper towel gives a textured look.

-Separate the plys of the paper towel. You can use the other ply for another project.
-Attach the paper towel to a piece of scrap card stock. By doing this, you'll be able to easily trim the paper towel to the size needed using a
paper trimmer.
5. Attach paper towel to Balmy Blue mat.
6. Decide the placement of the bunny and grass, then stamp the greeting below. I used my Stamparatus to get a good stamped image. It is helpful to use a stamp positioning tool in this case because of the texture of
the paper towel. You may not get a good image the first time around.
7. Attach the bunny, and grass to the insert using Mini Dimensionals to pop them up. Attach the carrot. Punch a hole in the top of the insert and insert ribbon to complete.
