R is for Rabbit

To enter my giveaway go here

Hello.  Welcome.  Well, of course it is.  Here's my R Altered Playing card for the Craft Barn Alpha Dictionary challenge.  I went with rabbit



Rabbit n. burrowing animal with long ears and a short furry tail.  Can't see this guy doing much burrowing.  



I started by adding Mermaid Lagoon distress to my playing card, then swiping it off again in places.  I cut Cheery Lynn English Tea Party doily three times from blue card.  More Mermaid Lagoon.



I stamped, embossed and fussy cut the rabbit.  I coloured with sharpies, added the dictionary definition and a piece of brown Bazzill for him to stand on.  

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

Oh Gail, your adorable rabbit had me smiling. Yep, I don't think this cutie will do much burrowing, but may pass out a few colored eggs. I really like this.

Oh, Gail, what an absolutely delightful rabbit! All dressed up in his Easter finery, too! Quite clever to using a playing card as your substrate. I also love the texture created by your small doilies! Super fun project, my friend!

Isn't this playing card a delight! A couple of years of this challenge and you'll have a full deck. LoL. Great background and he's got such a wonderful colorful outfit. Rabbit is just too fun to pass up for this challenge. I did a rabbit too.
