Christmas Bunnies

 In our cardmaking group, Cindi who posts our Christmas challenges, always posts on the first of the month.  So on April 1st she said she wanted us to use Bunnies on our cards, she also gave us a sketch to use if we wanted.  At the end of her post she said April Fool's but said if we actually did have bunnies to go ahead and use them.

So I went looking through my Christmas stuff and came across another cardmaking magazine from the UK that had these decoupage pieces that you punch out and sure enough there were bunnies with the snowmen :)  I will be hand delivering them to my local friends since there is so much layering and dimension.

This first one as I was going along the way they had cut them they just were not lining up well so I would go in and try to trim to the one below, it was a bit of a pain.


  • Quick cards magazine - Somebunny  to Love Decoupage pieces and papers
  • Stickles - Diamond for snow fall 

On this next one before putting it together I fussy cut around each image so that I could line them up better and that worked very well.


  • Quick cards magazine - Somebunny  to Love Decoupage pieces and tag
  • Stickles - Diamond for snow fall 
  • My Mind's eye - Winter papers for background
  • gems




The magazine also had bunny stamps, so I picked this one with them all in a stocking, too cute. I was able to bend the sentiment stamp just enough to go around the arch of the oval. Paper was given to me by my Sister in law.



  • Quick Cards magazine - Somebunny to Love stamp, colored w/markers
  • Spellbinders - Lacey Ovals die
  • Simon Says stamps - Tiny Words Christmas sentiment stamp
  • White gel pen for details on the stocking
I will be doing 3 cards with the sketch she provided too in another post :)

I would like to share my card with Peace on earth Challenge

Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today,

Connie

Well, that's funny, tee hee! Why NOT use bunnies? They're adorable and you know how I'm currently enjoying my own bunny stash. Just look what you came up with! These cards are sweet and fabulous!

Oh, I was April fooled as well, but love bunnies and would have done it, gorgeous cards, love the animals and Christmas theme, if I ever have an image or two that wont line up , just add a snowbank and problem solved..no trimming or stress required..
