Art Impressions Blog: Center Step Card with **NEW** Bunny Hugs Set by Lynn Dionne

Happy Wednesday Ai Fans!!!

Watch video tutorial here!!!

Today we will be creating a fun "Center Step Card" using the brand-new Ai Bunny Hugs Set (6008). This cute set has some wonderful bunnies, a topiary of eggs, a basket of carrots, cute butterflies, several sentiments and so much more!

Let's get started by stamping, coloring and die-cutting all of the images that we will be using on our card today. All of the coloring will be done using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Peach Pink, Pink, Sugared Almond Pink, Lt Pink, Lt Carmine, Pale Yellow, Yellow, Ice Blue, Cobalt Blue, Turquoise Green, May Green, Green, Orange, Lt Brown, Beige, Oatmeal, Mid Brown, Lilac, Lt Gray.

Next, we can create the "Center Step" base of the card and layers using some pretty patterned papers from the Ai Basic Yellow, Green, and Teal Paper Packs. I will give you all of the instructions for the base of the card and all of the measurements for each of the layering papers in today's video!

Once the base of the card and layers have been assembled, we will create a pretty bow for the card using the Ai Gift Card Pocket Set (5811). We can glue this to the bottom of the card, and this will add lots of interest and dimension to the card!

Let's stamp a couple of the sentiments from this set onto some white cardstock and some yellow polka dot cardstock using the label die from the Ai Journal Template die Set (5543). We can also add some black stitching around the edges of these sentiments using a permanent black marker. We can place one of these on the outside of the card and the other on the inside.

For a bit of sparkle, let's add some pretty white gems around the card, sentiment label, and to the bow!

Thank you so much for joining me today! Have a fun and crafty day!!!
