Really????????? It would be so nice

Oh, I shall probably use the bunnies as I love them Thank you Jane xxx

Karen, thank you!!

Here you are Jane.  Now to see if I can remember how to upload everything    . Hope this is ok Jane xxx

The very cute Tando bunnies are one of my favourites so I just had to have a play with them on this card!  



For the background cut a piece of watercolour paper 5 inches square then using watercolour paints colour  a sky and some grass as shown.  You don't have to be precise as the stamping will cover most of it.



Using the Crafty Individual CI-226 stamps and black Stazon stamp the different flowers to mostly cover the grass.  Add the butterflies.  Using watercolour paints again pick out a few flowers & the butterflies with a little colour.  Lightly gesso the larger running rabbits from the Tando Mini Pack then when dry paint with Fresco Paints. I used Irish Cream with a little Chocolate Pudding added to it.  Paint the tails in Chalk and add a little highlight to their ears and dot their eyes with a black pen.



Cut a strip of white card and, using small alphabet stamps, stamp a greeting.  Glue this over the background and matt and layer onto contrasting card before attaching to a card base.
