The Bunny Hop!

Hello again!

As we quickly approach the end of April 2010 - and the closing of one of my first stamping/swap groups- ATC Divas/Divos - another door opens.
But before that new door opens, I am sharing my last submission to the wonderful group called ATC Divas/Divos...run by some very talented women...Thank you to Cathy Y. of Indiana and Pat H. of Connecticut ...

This last submission is dedicated to you and to Jinny B. for starting her new group!

The theme for April 2010: Bunnies!

It is with soft sadness but renewed happiness that I say goodbye to the

ATC Divas but hello to a new group! Jinny B. (also of Connecticut) whom I will

be joining in tandem to manage the new ATC group.

I hope we can do as great a job as Cathy Y. in her time as moderator/leader of the Swaps! ;)

The above ATC (edition of 12) was created using 'Tablet stock' in coordinating colors. The base has a glittered 'damask' pattern. The bunny used was from an illustration of 'Bunnies by the Bay' which I printed out the computer and outlined in soft, glittery lavendar color pen by Sakura. Whiskers were also placed on the bunny's face using a clear glitter gel pen.

The bunny design wraps around to the back of the card where it is signed and numbered.

The mini 'tags' were cut from shimmery lavendar paper stock and had the message written in the same Sakura gel-pen.

The stamp 'Bonjour' stamp on the tummy is from 'STAMPIN' UP' stamps.

The textile is courtesy of 'Country Yarn's' in Wallingford, CT.

The bunny tales are from a 'pom-pom' ribbon from Joannes Crafts.

The message is subtle but clear...Good bye to the ATC Divas from Bunny but Bonjour/Hello to the new ATC group also from Bunny.

Hope you enjoyed!

As always - any questions or details I missed in the description (if you would like to duplicate a card or handcraft) please email me or post your question in the comment section. I will try to answer in a timely manner! :)

Thanks and happy paper crafting!
