8. Cute little stamped girls with recycled bunny ears Easter Card

These little girl stamps from Judikins available through Stamp, Stamp, Stamp are just about my favorite rubber stamp right now. And what better way to embellish them at Easter than to give them bunny ears!
First I punched out bunny ears out of a recycled scrapbook paper catalog using a Martha Stewart punch. One of the great things about using a catalog is the scale of the prints on the paper is tiny which is perfect for little detail punches like the bunny ear one I was using.
Then I stamped a row of the cute little Judikins hug girls and then I used my favorite Bunny Hug for a little card.
Then all that was left to so was color them in old school style like we used to do with our coloring books and glue the punched ears on.

4. How to make a recycled coffee cup card

Today's card is made with a recycled Starbucks paper coffee cup and a piece of scrapbooking paper.
I had been saving this cup that has the quote on it, "On the battlefield of ideas, winning requires moving toward the sound of the guns." by Newt Gingrich.

It had been sitting on the shelf above my desk for quite sometime and I was doing a bit of cleaning this weekend. It seemed the perfect time to transform this cup into a card.
So I cut the cup down to just the area of the quote but still left the top rim of the cup. There was still a bit of curve the the cardboard and it still looked like a cup.

I went through the stash and found this cute piece of scrapbooking paper that had a hand pointing graphic on it.

All that was left to do was trim the paper into a card shape and pop the cup on using a few strips of foam tape to keep the curve dimensional.

3. How to make a recycled Bingo card hidden window card

Today's card is made with a recycled Bingo card and a vintage image of a lady smoking.
I thought the grid of the Bingo card lent itself to making them into little flaps that I could put images behind.
How I made the Bingo card flap opening is simply by cutting the two sides and bottom of one of the grids. I scored the top with the back of my knife and folded it up.Then I cut the photo out of the magazine and glued it to the back of the Bingo card. All that was left was to glue the Bingo card to the the front of a greeting card. As I type this I was just thinking I could have used a recycled greeting card that I didn't love the cover image since the Bingo card would likely cover the whole front. Hmmmmm, next time! Well I'm just going to pop this latest card in my Greeting Card Album for safe keeping.

2. Super Moon Greeting card made with two circle punches and One Up Me quote

With the amazing super moon shining in the night sky I thought I'd make a super moon card.
Now I know the Super Moon is a full moon but I thought it would be fun to make a partial moon. It was super easy.
I pulled out the circle punches and picked two similar in size. I punched the large circle out of some white glitter paper and then the slightly smaller circle off center.
The quote is from One Up Me:
" He's like an 800 number, you won't get a charge out of him."
which I wrote with a Pentel Slicci silver pen.
