I made this card for this week's Teapot challenge: "You've been framed." Check it out at MMTPT608, hosted by Susie and suggested by Jennifer for a friend battling cancer. My card also works for the CAS challenge: CAS577 Bunnies or Chicks.
I chose this "oldie but goodie" stamp because it reminds me of spring with all the flowers and bunnies. I colored the image with Prismacolor pencils, then used oval die cut. I created my frame with Spellbinder dies after watching Double-matted frames tutorial. Thanks for suggesting the frames theme Susie. It was much easier than I thought it would be.
I used my Misti to stamp image and sentiment. I trimmed the sentiment down using my Misti Cut-Align tool. It allows you to trim your card stock down to such a thin piece because the ruler is see through.

This is as adorable as adorable gets Gracie! Your wonderful framing draws your eye right to this super charming scene. You finished this off with a terrific sentiment that will really make Joann feel special - and loved. ~Karen.

Oh, my gosh, it is exciting to see this fantastic stamp image on a card! I have that stamp and haven't used it for a very long time. I love your coloring of the image and the beautiful blue card stock. Love the card, Gracie.

Karen said it best...as adorable as adorable gets. Can you imagine the smile on Joann's face when she opens the envelope and sees this. Your colouring is fabulous Gracie and the frame is the icing on the cake. I'm so glad you enjoyed the challenge and thanks so much for bringing this precious bunny hug to teaparty.
