Directions:      1. Take  the  5  ½”  x  8  ⅛”  piece  of  Crushed  Curry  cardstock

aligned  with  the  right  edge  of  the  small  panel  of  the  5  ½”  x  8  ⅛”  Crushed  Curry  cardstock  piece  (refer  to  the  video  if  necessary).  

6. Take  your  3  ⅞”  x  5  ½”  piece  of  Whisper  White  cardstock  and  trim  a  sliver  off  of  the  right  edge  so  that  it  is  slightly  narrower  than  3  ⅞”.    Make  sure  that  you  can  fit  it  on  the  center  panel  of  your  card  without  overlapping  the  fold  lines.    

7. Using  a  wedge  of  Stamping  Sponge  and  Coastal  Cabana  Classic  ink,  sponge  along  the  top  ⅔  of  the  trimmed  3  ⅞”  x  5  ½”  piece  of  Whisper  White  cardstock.  

8. Take  a  3  ⅞”  wide  x  4”  high  piece  of  Pistachio  Pudding  cardstock  and  sponge  along  the  top  1”  of  the  cardstock  using  Pistachio  Pudding  Classic  ink  and  a  wedge  of  Stamping  Sponge.  Trim  a  sliver  off  the  right  edge  of  the  Pistachio  Pudding  cardstock  so  that  it  is  exactly  the  same  width  as  the  sponged  Whisper  White  cardstock  piece.    

9. Create  the  look  of  grass  by  cutting  along  the  sponged  edge  of  the  Pistachio  Pudding  cardstock  with  fringe  scissors.  You  want  the  cuts  to  be  about  1”  long  (so  you  are  cutting  the  top  1”  of  the  Pistachio  Pudding  cardstock).  

10. Place  your  sponged  Whisper  White  cardstock  piece  on  the  center  panel  of  your  card  for  placement.  Position  the  fringed  Pistachio  Pudding  cardstock  over  top  of  the  Whisper  White  CS  so  that  when  you  fold  the  window  panel  closed,  the  “grass”  extends  about  1”  above  the  bottom  edge  of  the  circular  window.    Stick  the  Pistachio  Pudding  cardstock  to  the  Whisper  White  cardstock  using  double  sided  adhesive.    Trim  off  any  of  the  Pistachio  Pudding  cardstock  that  is  overhanging  the  edge  of  the  white  cardstock.    

11. Stick  the  sponged  white  cardstock  with  the  Pistachio  Pudding  “grass”  onto  the  center  panel  of  your  card  using  double-­‐sided  adhesive.    Set  aside  for  a  moment.  

12. Stamp  the  bunny  image  from  Cheerful  Critters  onto  a  scrap  piece  of  watercolor  paper  using  Jet  Black  StazOn  ink.  Color  in  the  center  of  the  bunny’s  ears  using  a  Calypso  Coral  Stampin’  Write  marker.    Add  some  shading  around  the  perimeter  of  the  bunny’s  head  and  to  his  arms  using  a  blender  pen  and  Crisp  Cantaloupe  marker.  

13. Create  a  color  palette  by  scribbling  some  Crushed  Curry  and  Strawberry  Slush  Stampin’  Write  marker  onto  a  non-­‐porous  surface  such  as  your  Stamp-­‐a-­‐ma-­‐jig  imaging  sheet.  

14. Squeeze  the  barrel  of  your  Aqua  Painter  slightly  so  that  the  water  starts  to  flow.    Brush  a  layer  of  water  over  top  of  the  bunny’s  sweater.    Using  your  Aqua  Painter  randomly  dab  some  of  the  Strawberry  Slush  Stampin’  Write  marker  from  your  palette  onto  the  bunny’s  sweater.    Apply  the  Crushed  Curry  Stampin’  Write  marker  in  the  areas  in  between  the  Strawberry  Slush  color.  Add  a  little  more  water  if  necessary  with  your  Aqua  Painter  to  help  the  two  colors  start  to  blend  a  little  bit,  one  into  the  other.    Apply  more  of  each  color  if  necessary  to  achieve  your  desired  look.  Let  the  bunny  air  dry.  

15. Stamp  the  sentiment  in  the  center  of  the  bunny’s  banner  using  black  ink  (either  Memento  Tuxedo  Black  or  Jet  Black  StazOn).    

16. Using  a  craft  blade  and  self-­‐healing  craft  mat,  cut  out  the  inner  areas  in  between  the  bunny’s  arms  and  head  and  in  between  the  ears.    Use  a  fine-­‐tipped  pair  of  scissors  to  cut  the  bunny  out  as  close  to  the  outer  lines  as  possible.    

17. Place  some  adhesive  on  the  back  of  your  bunny  and  tuck  him  a  little  underneath  the  top  edge  of  the  “grass”  on  you  card  making  sure  that  he  will  end  up  being  centered  in  the  circular  window  once  the  window  is  folded  inwards.  Place  a  rhinestone  on  either  side  of  the  sentiment  on  the  bunny’s  banner.  

18. Fold  the  window  panel  inwards  so  that  it  is  pressed  down  flat  over  top  of  the  center  panel.  Place  a  strip  of  red  liner  tape  along  the  narrow  left  panel  (on  the  circular  window  piece).  The  left  edge  of  the  narrow  panel  should  be  aligned  with  the  fold  –  but  not  overhang  the  fold.    Remove  the  backing  from  the  red  liner  tape,  and  fold  the  front  of  the  card  closed.  Please  refer  to  the  video  if  necessary.  You  have  now  created  the  Diorama  portion  of  the  card.  Set  aside  for  a  moment.  

19. Stamp  the  Egg-­‐cellent  Easter  sentiment  from  the  For  Peep’s  Sake  stamp  set  onto  a  2  ¼”  x  2  ¾”  piece  of  Whisper  White  cardstock  in  Memento  Tuxedo  Black  ink.  Center  and  stick  your  sentiment  to  a  2  ⅜”  x  2⅞”  piece  of  Crushed  Curry  cardstock.  Place  a  small  rhinestone  at  the  center  of  the  top  and  bottom  flourish.

20. Center  and  stick  a  6”  piece  of  1  ¼”  Crushed  Curry  Striped  Grosgrain  Ribbon  across  the  center  of  a  4”  x  5  ¼”  piece  of  patterned  paper.  Bring  the  ends  of  the  ribbon  around  to  the  back  of  the  patterned  paper  piece  and  stick  them  down  using  double-­‐sided  adhesive.  

21. Center  and  stick  the  patterned  paper  piece  to  the  card  front.  Center  and  stick  the  matted  sentiment  over  top  of  the  ribbon  using  dimensional  foam.  You’re  done!
