Fable Friends and Daisy Delight #simplestamping Spring card

FABLE FRIENDS STAMP SET and DAISY DELIGHT STAMP SET  are a great combination for a #simplestamping Spring card.

The Daisy was stamped twice to give a full flower and the little squirrel from Fable Friends was coloured using inks and the Aqua Painter. Both the flowers were coloured in the same tones to tie this simple card together.

This card uses only a few supplies, the two stamp sets a couple of ink pads and the Aqua Painter making it a perfect project for the beginner stamper or those who are just starting out with minimal supplies.

Give it a go and have fun.

Stampin Up Fable Friends - Creative colouring ideas for female rabbits

FABLE FRIENDS STAMP SET £20 is a lovely set full of fable characters like Peter Rabbit, Jemima Puddleduck and Squirrel Nutkin.  A must for all Beatrix Potter lovers.

However is you want to turn Peter Rabbit from a little male character to a female Flopsy Bunny, then here are some ideas for aprons, skirts and flowers in her hair.

Colour the bunnies in whatever medium you like from Blends (alcohol markers) coloured pencils, Stampin Write Markers or just inks and a blender pen.

The little flowers were taken from the Jar of Love Set but any tiny flower would work.

Here is a step by step video tutorial to show you how I made each one of the bunnies.  Hope you enjoy and do have a go and see what you can create.

Box of Cards using Stampin Up Fable Friends.

So who likes Beatrix Potter? She was an English Author, illustrator, natural scientist and conservationist born in 1866 in Kensington in London. As a child I was lucky enough to be given a couple of her books, The Tale of the Flopsy Bunnies (Flopsy's brother was Peter Rabbit) and The Tale of Benjamin Bunny (Peter Rabbit's cousin).

These books were part of my childhood and I can remember my mother reading them to me, tucked up in bed as a night time story.

So when Stampin Up brought out FABLE FRIENDS I was delighted that the images closely resembled those lovely characters with Peter Rabbit, Jemima Puddleduck and Squirrel Nutkin.

I wanted to make a box of 6 cards with 2 of each of these three characters.

The box is a very simple construction, just a box with a lid.  The sizes are

Lid

8 1/4" square piece of cardstock scored at 1" and 2" on all sides

Base

8 1/8" square piece of cardstock scored at 1" and 2" on all sides.

Cards

8" x 4" cardstock base scored at 4" to give you the 4" square card

matt of dsp (patterned paper) 3 3/4" square so a quarter of an inch smaller.

A circle cut from the STITCHED SHAPES DIES using the largest circle.

The dsp (patterned paper) is NEUTRALS 6" x 6"

The Fable Friend images were just fussy cut with a good pair of sharp scissors.

Here is  step by step video tutorial so you can have a go at making these cards and the box.  Don't forget this is just an ideas you can make these cards and box using whatever stamps and papers you may have.
