My Peeps

Good morning Cottage Cutz fans - it's Jeanne today with one of my favorite dies!  First let me say that the new release is absolutely fantastic.  However, the die I'm using today is especially adorable.
In our house, no Easter basket is complete without Peeps. So this die brings back memories of those sweet marshmallow critters. This card is super easy to make but looks so cute.
I started with an 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 card base scored at 4 1/4, with a landscape orientation.  I also cut a panel from plaid paper 4 /14 x 5 1/2 inches.  The smaller white panel is cut using the second largest of the Double Stitched Rectangle dies.
I die cut a full set of peeps in two colors that coordinated with my paper.  The die cuts a row of peeps along with two single ones.
Next I used a Multi-liner pen to color the eyes and nose.  I added clear Wink of Stella to one of the single peeps to give it that sugar coated look.
I stamped the sentiment on the white stitched panel.
I assembled the panels and popped up the odd colored peep by using foam dots.

This card goes together so quick and makes an adorable piece of happy mail.

The new release featuring the Spring and In Stitches dies are on sale for a limited time  Be sure to visit the website to take advantage of these great prices.

You're right -- no Easter basket is complete without peeps. Your bunny "peeps" are adorable, and I like the yellow/purple color combination.

So, so, cute! Wouldn't the peeps be great in felt too? Great color combo. - Janet

I have a single peeps die but love this one where they are all connected. They look great with your matching plaid background.

Where did you find the sentiment

Jeanne said...

The sentiment is from the Poppystamps clear stamp set "To All My Peeps". There are three "peeps" sentiments in the set.
