Bunny

Hi Everyone, I have created a card today that cases a sketch from the outgoing mini catalog. I used the sketch of a Welcome Baby card on page 28 and turned it into an Easter card. CASEing the Catty Sunday Challenge #515 provided the inspiration. Inspired by Challenge #331 is themed Bunnies. Perfect for my last Easter card. I was also inspired by their colors.
