Way to Go Erika!

This is a card I made for my future niece Erika. She just graduated college, and although I was not able to attend, I will see her when I attend my nephew's (her fiancee) graduation this weekend. I really hope she likes this card. She has two beautiful bunnies, Pecan and Bowzer. I modeled this one after Bowzer. He has all these wonderful ginger colored markings on him.

 

I used two sets from Doodle Pantry. The bunny is from the Bunny Wabbit set and the sentiment and cap is from the Grad Hats set. I absolutely love the versatility of these digital stamp sets. You can so easily size them to fit with each other. I colored the bunny and hat with Copic markers (R00 and R000 for inside ears and nose; E33 and E35 for the bunny's body and ears; Y19 for the tassle and V09 and V17 for the cap). Her school colors are purple and gold, so that's what I used for the card stock. The image and sentiment were cut out with Spellbinder's Wonky Squares. The balloons and diploma are from K & Company and I added some clear crystals for the bling!

Pop on over to Doodle Pantry's Blog and download 3 new sentiment sets that Laurie is giving away. They will go with any and all of your stamped images. While you're there, play along in this month's challenge and receive the Fruitful Star set FREE just for playing along.

    What a great grad card for a bunny lover. Love your design and how you merged the bunny image with the elements from grad hats. Adorable!

    Now that is a cute idea - hat on the bunny and scroll. Like the shape of the image piece and sentiment piece.
