LOVE my Paper Pumpkin Kits and always try to create alternative ideas with the stamps that come in the kit! Check out this sweet bunny made with a 1-1/4" Circle Punch!! The trick: stamp the facial features low on the circle. I added sponged cheeks, ears and card edges for softness. I used Clear Wink of Stella on the ears, eyes and noses for shimmer!

These are Notecards with 1/4" cut off the top edges so the eggs line up nicely! This is a quick cute Easter card! Try it!
