Festive Furbabies

Hey friends - hope you're enjoying your day!! I'm popping in with a quick card for the current ChristmasKickstart Challenge - Festive Furbabies!! Any furry critter works for this challenge and I chose a bunny. Here's my card:

Supplies: Paper - Paper Studio A2 card; Pool cardstock by unk; 

Stamp on it Heavyweight vellum; Neenah white 

Stamps - Lawn Fawn Winter Bunny (with matching die) 

Hero Arts - CG376 Music Collage Background and 

CL343 Holiday Sayings (both retired) 

Dies - Lawn Fawn Stitched Snowflakes

Sunny Studio Slimline Nature Border Dies

My Favorite Things Blueprints (retired) 

Other - clear Wink of Stella; foam tape; 

Hero Arts red & soft pool inks; Copic Markers

Was reading Gail's (Crafty Nomad) post from earlier today (btw - she's Jo's elf this fortnight at Kickstart). She mentioned being diverted to a craft project whilst cleaning - I do the same thing, don't you?! Well, I wasn't cleaning this time but looking for something and instead found a couple UFO boxes needing some love. I found the bunny, a flimsy card with the collage music background, and the snowflake, among many other things. Decided I could combine the first three and create a card for Christmas Kickstart!

I colored the bunny, already stamped and die cut, with Copics. I added Wink of Stella to the scarf. Don't know what paper I stamped the bunny on but it certainly wasn't Neenah 110 lb!! To strength it, I added two more white diecuts behind. Since the background was on a flimsy card, I cut off the front and die cut it with a pierced rectangle. Wanted to do a hillside but realized my go-to Lawn Fawn die was in the satellite studio. Then I remembered I just received a Sunny Studio order with some slimline dies so used one of those for my snowy hill.

I stamped the sentiment on the back half of the card I had cut up, then trimmed it to a little banner to pop onto my snowflake with some foam tape. Added the entire panel to a silver A2 card - done!! Or was I? The sentiment stamp set had some little images, including the present. I thought a present would be cute on the sled with the bunny so stamped, colored and fussy cut one.

I spotted some more furry critters in a UFO box so will try to be back again later this week with another card. Gotta build up that Christmas stash, ya know - although I do have it up to 62 cards so far!!

Thanks for stopping by and thanks to Jo and elf Gail for a fun challenge!
