You know when your stamping world is all aligned, and everything turns out how you hoped? Well, that's how I feel about this card...it's hard to like your own work sometimes...I was looking at this card earlier, feeling sure that someone else made it!! I just love all 3 of the stamps I used for this, so that's probably why. I think the Mommy Bunny sure looks shocked at the Mother's Day gift from her little bunnies! It made me think of those Mother's Day gifts you get from your kids...either they are so priceless...or you wonder, did you make this or your teacher??!! Notes about Paper Tole...1...do NOT drink coffee before attempting this unless you pick a HUGE stamp...I almost went over the edge trying to do the Mama Bunny's foot!! 2) It may be best to choose ONE stamp to do this on for your first try, rather than a bunch...even though it was way worth it, I thought I may never be done...I know, I know, PATIENCE, GRASSHOPPER!!
