Somebunny's Birthday

Hello.  Welcome.  Teddy says hi


What's that?  That's a rabbit. Could I have got a better photo?  Maybe.  But he is like a mop on legs.  Fast legs!!  I was lucky to catch him face on. 

Here's another one


This one always looks ready to run as well.  I used Docrafts Clocks Tri-boss folder and Chocolate pigment ink to highlight the embossing.  I stamped Stampotique's Rabbit on white card, with the same ink, and cut him out.  The sentiment stamps are from PaperArtsy and Crafty Individuals.  I stood rabbit on some embroidery thread.  I added a wonky squiggly line by hand.  That's why it's wonky.  And squiggly.  I wanted a rust colour base card but didn't have so I used a bright orange card and added some DI Barn Door and Walnut Stain.  It looks rusty to me.

Off to check the hens and rabbits haven't blown away.  It's rather breezy out still.  Hugz
