A Summer Card with a Bunny!

Hi everyone and Happy Summer to you all! 

We always use bunnies on Easter cards but they are great for Summer cards too!

I actually started out by creating the plaid for my bunny. I used white glossy for my cardstock and alcohol inks.  Once I knew the color scheme, I chose an ivory cardstock as the mat (embossed) and a pretty blue shimmery Bazzill Bling shade for my card.

I used Tea Dye Ink (Ranger) to edge my ivory mat to bring out some of the embossing and to "age" it a little.

My little plaid bunny was made using a Tim Holtz technique using alcohol inks.  If you want the steps to the technique, go to Tim's blog and search "plaid". 

On my bunny I did two different colors of plaid.  I used a soft pastel for the bow.  Also, I added a cute little crocheted doily for my bunny to sit on!



I hope you liked my card today! Happy Summer!
