Hello and welcome! I am Theresa McEntee, creator of Theresa’s Treasures Paper Crafts. Today I have the pleasure of participating in the Blog Hop with Around the World on Wednesday (AWOW) organized by Angie McKenzie.
On the second Wednesday of each month, the AWOW team put together a thematic hop to give you some inspiration for your own crafting.
This or That? is January’s theme.
Which do you like better? This or That?
My Project for today
These cards are made from the Storybook Moments Suite in the 2025 Spring Mini Catalog. I just love this Suite because I have always loved bunnies! I have a collection of miniature bunny statues, numerous bunny stuffed animals and a live bunny named Snowball.
Assembling the Cards
Both of the cards have a Misty Moonlight card base 4 1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5 1/2″. The 3 Basic White cardstock stitched rectangles are made with the Nested Essentials Dies, using the 3 smaller dies. The images are stamped in Memento Ink. Then colored with Stampin’ Blends Alcohol Markers and Watercolor Pencils.
The larger rectangle is adhered to the card base. The middle rectangle is actually 3 glued together to elevate the image slightly. The smallest rectangle with the sentiment is adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The difference between the second card and the first card is layers. The second card has a layer of Fresh Freesia cardstock that has been embossed with the Eyelet Embossing Folder (available in the 2024-25 Annual Catalog).
There is another layer of Soft Sea Foam cardstock cut with a die from the Citrus Blooms Dies (also available in the 2024-25 Annual Catalog). Everything else is the same as the first card.
The Antique Pearls, new in the 2025 Spring Mini Cataolg, are the embellishment. The Fresh Fresia Seam Binding is a Sale-a-bration Freebie! Sale-a-bration starts January 7, 2025 along with the debut of the 2025 Spring Mini Catalog!

Cute cards Theresa, its a tough decision, but I will choose the darker background! 🙂 xx
Thank you Cheryl.
This is a super cute suite! I can’t wait to try it myself. Both cards are really charming. I may be in the minority here, but I like the simpler “This” version of the card for some reason.
This ! But I love your white rabbit ! He’s so cute ! (I love animals, all) I prefer the more sober card, with its dark background, I think it stands out better!
So cute! If I had to choose, it would be “This”. I love simple cards and the blues are my favorite.
I like these little Peter Rabbit cards. Very sweet. If I had to pick, I’d choose the Fresh Freesia one because I like the subtle embossing of the front and the die cut of Sea Foam helps frame and ground the images. 🙂
Both are beautiful cards! However, I do really like the purple and green together! Super cute!
Both are super cute… but I always love Fresh Freesia!!!
