I am making 50 baby shower invitations for Saramaisie's first baby. She is doing a Peter Rabbit theme in the baby's room as well as at the shower. So I am trying to stay close with that. So I am ataching a picture of the cardstock, paper, and ribbon I plan to use along with two bunnies. One is chocolate and the other is an orange color. I need to know which bunny you guys think looks the best.
Thanks for taking the time to vote, I really appreciate it. I can't seem to decide which I like better.
I like the chocolate bunny better. Love the ribbon btw!

I looked again since I am clearly in the minority, and I still think the orange-y red! You can see his eyes better and he matches the ribbon and paper better from the looks of your photo.
Either one is precious, though. Go with the one YOU like best!
Shannon...your stuff always is beautiful!! I picked the orange-y one because it is softer looking, and, I felt it went better with the papers. Have fun making 50!!
I like them both but voted for chocolate. I do agee with the others though on the matching of the paper and ribbon. If the orangy one matches better IRL then I'd go with that.
I voted for chocolate, but only because the orangey only looked very pink on my screen. Unless you know the baby is a girl, I'd go with chocolate and maybe use green for the ears and ribbon instead of blue. JMHO!
I do know the baby is a boy.... and the room is primarily blue and white and a certainly celery kind of green. So the patterned paper was just perfect. I am still trying to decide on what color to matt the bunny on. I was thinking certainly celery or a darker blue.
I wish I lived near you (at least we're in the same time zone)! I have a Peter Rabbit foam stamp set! It's by All Night Media/Plaid (the same people who make, for example, Anna Griffin's stamps among others). Michaels carries this brand, just as an FYI...in case this helps.
But the bunny teddy you're using is definitely cute!
As for matting colour - what don't you make some in Celery, others in Blue?
I voted orangy-red, but in all honesty, they're both fantastic. You won't go wrong with whichever you choose (and by the look of the vote results it'll be a coin toss for which one to choose)! :mrgreen:
I chose the orange one as well...seemed to coordinate better with your fancy paper and ribbon. But I did not help matters much...nearly tied things up!

I like both bunnies! But for your project I would prefer the orange one, it coordinates better with the rest of paper.
I hope you can make a decision since it looks like 50/50 thing...
Aack! I first thought "chocolate" but the more I looked I liked the "orangy" one better. I voted for orangy. I think it pops more with the colors you're using and the ribbon.
