Dude, Let's Party

Here's my card for the current challenge at The Paper Players.  I used the sketch along with an image I colored during March's Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge.

I can't resist cute bunny images and the Lil' Inker Designs Bunny Buddies set sure is cute!  The balloon-holding bunny was colored with Copic markers, then cut out with the matching die.  I used foam tape to adhere the image to a kraft stitched rectangle die cut (I did a little creative die cutting to shorten the rectangle just a bit).  The rectangle was adhered to a wide strip of dotted patterned paper.  After edging the patterned panel with kraft cardstock, I adhered the panel to the center of a red card base.  The set's "dude, let's party" sentiment was stamped on a narrow turquoise blue cardstock strip. I framed the text with a copper brad on each side, then placed it on the cardfront, tucking it just beneath the raised bunny image.

Materials Used:
Bunny Buddies stamp set, Bunny Buddies and Stitched Rectangle dies (Lil' Inker Designs); Memento Tuxedo Black ink (Tsukinenko/IMAGINE Crafts); markers (Copic); Poppy Parade cardstock (Stampin' Up!); Hawaiian Shores and Kraft cardstock (Papertrey Ink); Boy Crazy 6x6 paper pad (My Mind's Eye); copper brads; foam tape
