Gatefold Bunnies

Most of you probably know, the card I make for my mom is always a special one.  This is the Easter card I made for her.

Oh and I forgot to take photos before I gave it to her, so I blurred out the text inside to give her privacy :D


This is what she saw when she took the card out of the envelope.


Close-up of the main imagery.  I really love mixing textures and embellishments to create my cards.

One side opened.  Note how the bunnies are in different poses to give the impression they might be looking at each other in some areas.


Here I wanted the bunnies to look like they were all running and jumping across the card.


The other size open, so you can see the different designs.


And the back of the card, 'cause I didn't think the label fit on the inside after I made it so I just put it on the back.  You of course can't tell but the word "Easter" was colored with my Wink of Stella pens.

Lots of challenges today :D:
Thanks so much for looking and happy crafting!  Hope you and your family had a lovely holiday.  Laters!!

    Gorgeous gatefold card. All the little bunnies and tiny gem eggs look fab and the paper reminds me of Smarties. Thank you for sharing your work with all of us at Crafty Boots Challenges.

    Hi there, Lisa! Thank you so much for visiting my blog and leaving such a sweet comment the other day! I wanted to drop by and see what you've been making! This is absolutely gorgeous! I know your Mom must have loved it! The bunnies are adorable and I love how you used the oval gems for eggs - must log that in the memory bank for next year! This is a real showstopper, inside and out! Fabulous card!
