Hero Arts April 2021 My Monthly Hero Release Blog Hop & Giveaway

Hola everyone! Pocono Pam here! Thanks for joining Hero Arts in celebrating the April 2021 My Monthly Hero Kit  Release. If you hopped over from the talented Mindy Eggen,  you are in the right place. To start the hop from the beginning, visit the Hero Arts Blog. The entire blog list can be found at the bottom of this post, along with the giveaway information. 

Today I am sharing a card I created using an adorable bunny stamp included in the kit. It was fun to create and I hope you will give it a try.

I was inspired by Easter baskets and wanted to add a "basket" to my card. To do so, I started by cutting 1/2" X 8 1/2" strips of Sand, Azalea, Pumpkin and Peony cardstock. 

Next, I placed double-sided tape along the top of a 3 3/4" X 4 3/4" Dove White cardstock panel. I adhered five Sand strip ends to the tape.

To create the basket, I inserted the Pumpkin, Azalea and Peony strips in an over/under pattern ensuring they remained straight. Once the weaving was complete, I trimmed the excess and adhered the basket to the panel. 

To continue, I glued the "basket" panel to 4 1/8" X 5" Arctic cardstock panel. Next, I die cut two Dove White circles of different sizes and stamped "Hello" on the larger one. I then die cut two Sand circles and adhered the Dove White circles onto them. 

I stamped the bunny in Taffy Reactive Ink and die cut and glued it to the smaller Sand/Dove White circle. 

 

 Next, I adhered the "Hello" sentiment to the "basket" and popped the bunny onto it with foam squares. I added enamel dots and adhered the panel to a top-folding card base. 

I hope you enjoyed my card today.  Next on the hop is the talented Seeka! Thanks for taking a peek.
