I fell in love with the Hopping by stamp from the current seasonal expression catalogue, so I knew as soon as the the anouncment was made for the Easter theamed hop that I would be using this stamp.  I have also been waiting for the right project to try the ever popular pop up exploding box card.  

I used the CTMH Artfully Sent Cricut cartridge pocket card function to decorate the outside, the grass is cut from the CTMT Artbooking Cricut Cartridge.

 I used the grass cut again under the cars

the egg and the clouds are cut form the CTMH Artiste Cricut.

the cars for the chick and bunny are stamped on and then fussy cut out of the Hopscotch paper that is only available till the end of this month.

My favourite stamp from Seasonal Expressions 1 is the Assorted Edges D1635 seen on page 16.
I recreated the layout seen on that page to show case the stamp as well as the limited time stuck on you puffies. I used the new card-stock colours that came out in the fall, Thistle, Glacier, & Canary with a touch of Hollyhock, and Pear.  I backed the squares with black and whisper fundamentals card-stock and distressed the edges.

The star-burst was cut using my Cricut and the Close To My Heart Artfully Sent Cartridge.  insider tip the recipes including the Cricut cuts for pages seen in the catalogues are on your consultants web-store under the idea book tab.

I also used the you your the Bomb stamp set seen on the back  cover. When you purchase this stamp set $3 goes to operation smile, a great organization.



Make sure you check out all the great items that are in the seasonal expression book as this month is the last month to order.
