Mornin' y'all! The hubs took my car today to have some work done on it, so Ryan was wanting to ride bikes to school. We got the bikes down and got started and discovered that my tires are super flat, so we had to come back to the house and take the hubs' truck instead...I think it's only the second time I've driven the truck? But if we get my tires aired up maybe Ryan and I can do the bike thing tomorrow.
In the meantime, how about another bunny card?
I'm playing along with the Paper Players once again:
And for real I have another bun-bun on my radar to make another card with and all I can hear is Judy Hopps in Zootopia saying "Well, we do know how to multiply!" I thought this week's Atlantic Hearts sketch would be CAS enough to combine challenges:
And finally, I'm having another go at the Festive Friday challenge:
I've got earthy colors, burlap (I stamped a burlap-esque pattern on the Chocolate Chip strip but I realize this might be iffy), splattering (again, a stamp, this time on the Garden Green strip), and animals. I had the bunnies all picked out for my card and I was looking through my other stamp sets to see if I could hit a couple of other items on the list, and Awesomely Artistic gave me both of the texture stamps and the greeting, so win. And I'm fairly certain this is the first time I've actually used this Forest Friends from 2005; there's another stamp set with the same name that came later and I've used that a lot, but I got this one on eBay a few years ago and this is her maiden voyage.
I have come to the conclusion that my stamp collection is getting unwieldy and I need to thin out some that I don't use, so I spent Sunday doing just that and put them in banker's boxes with "To Sell?" written on them (note the question mark). I'm going to let them sit for a few months and if I don't ever go digging through there then I know it's okay to override my dragonish hoarding instincts and let those stamp sets go. After all, I have four giant shelving units for stamp sets and they were kinda bursting at the seams. So we'll see how that goes.
Anyway, that's it for now, peeps. I'm going to eat breakfast and then take Daphne out to enjoy this beautiful day. Cheers!

Fantastic card! I love the way you incorporated elements onto your card stock pieces. Great layout, too. Thanks for joining us at Festive Friday!
Your bunnies really are multiplying Christy - how fun! This is a lovely natural image and really suits the earthy palette. A third one (I'm not reading/commenting in order obviously!) for our challenge over at The Paper Players this week! Keep us posted on that stamp set clear-out; I am about to do the same - I am officially out of space!!
