The cards measure 10cms x 7cms and are pre-scored from Papermill Direct (pack of 50 with envelopes £10) https://www.papermilldirect.co.uk/card-blanks/7-x-5-white-plain-card-blanks. This sounds a bit expensive to me so I wonder if I got them on special offer?
Two very simple gift cards today, to me they are the sort of size you pop with an Easter egg or Easter gift.
As you can see I got the self adhesive, felt bunnies from Hobbycraft in a sale, I can't remember when, but at least they are now all used up, so owe me nothing, working out at approx 12.5p each.
The wooden, glitter sentiments were also from Hobbycraft a while back. I have had a look on their website, but can't see any more, however it's early days for Easter Crafting so perhaps they haven't set them out yet. However, they did have a couple of other things I quite fancied of an Easter type nature, but I think I will wait until I go in store to see them in real life before I consider making a purchase.
I put all the bits and pieces together, opting for a mix of polka dot and gingham papers in spring like colours ........
...... before putting the designs together, all very plain and simple, giving the binnies a pair of goggly eyes, adding a couple of bubble adhesive flowers and a little faux stitching and groups of three dots using a black fine liner pen.
When I got to the second card I was well into the swing of things, adding corners and a couple of punched leaves. I just love the combination of turquoise and yellow ...... after months and months in a Christmas coloured cocoon it's sooooooo nice to emerge into a world of fresh colours!

I love the turquoise and yellow combo, too. I have made quite a few cards using those colors and I've always loved them. I like your cute little felt bunnies on your cards. The googly eyes give them lots of character.
Love both cards, they’re great.
