Everyone loves a cute bunny, right? Well this little one in a basket is too cute not to share. I colored in the image using a water brush and ink from the lids of stamp pads. It gives a nice watercolor look. The sentiment is stamped between strips of patterned paper. Here's a hint for how I got it lined up so well.
Hint: I cut strips of paper 1/2" wide by 6" long. I placed the first one on the card at the angle I wanted and glued down. I snipped off the extra and moved to place the next strip. I placed the scrap piece against the strip I glued down and held it in place. I glued down the next strip right up against the scrap piece. Then I removed the scrap piece and trimmed the extra off the second strip. I repeated this until the card front was finished. Next I stamped the sentiment between the strips.
