Blogger Challenge: Week 97

For this week's Blogger Challenge, Lisa provided us with a sketch to follow. It's always fun to see how differently everyone in the group interprets the shared sketch.

Like I've said before, I can't resist cute bunny rabbit images, so I ordered the Forest Friends set from the SU! Occasions mini catalog. I stamped the bunny in Close to Cocoa ink on a scrap of Creamy Caramel ink for a two-toned look, then trimmed around the image. It's attached with a dimensional to a panel that was stamped with the set's tree image.

I used some earthy color tones on the rest of the card to match the set's images. The card's base is Old Olive, which I realized I haven't been using much now that Kiwi Kiss is around. I layered a strip of kraft cardstock across the top of the card, wrapped with a piece of Chocolate Chip ribbon. I couldn't figure out what kind of sentiment would go on this card, so I didn't add one. I think it works okay without one.

For more inspiration with this sketch, you can visit the other challenge participants. Links to their blogs are in the sidebar on the right.
