Snuggle Bunnies



I love these sweet little Snuggle Bunnies by My Favorite Things, especially how that little one's ear is all flopped over - so adorable! I made this card using this week's MFT Sketch Challenge. Every Thurday, you'll find two new challenges in the MFT Forum - the My Favorite Challenge and the Sketch Challenge. Both have prizes, so it's worth your while to give it a go. MFT stamps are not a requirement, so if you don't have any yet, you're still invited and encouraged to play! While you're in the MFT Forum, be sure to check out Joanne's How'd They Do That tutorial. She's got some great ideas and gorgeous samples for different ways to use glitter.

I stamped the image in Memento Tuxedo Black onto Papertrey's Vintage Cream cardstock and colored with Copic markers. The image is in three layers - the base image, the pair of bunnies popped up, and then the smaller bunny's head and floppy ear popped up again. The wavy border along the bottom of the yellow panel is cut with the Ricrac Piercabilities by Spellbinders. The papers are from Nana's Nursery (boys) by Die Cuts With a View. I used Susan's ribbon and button treatment and Jody's hint for using liquid applique correctly :)

Thanks for peeking in today!
