Long Post: Blog Candy Winner and a Rabbit Show

Over the past weekend, one of my projects at the retreat was to make a set of notecards to donate to my sister’s Rabbit Show.  Now the girls that I was stamping with thought the term “Rabbit Show” was the most hysterical thing they ever heard of!  Growing up in a farm/4H mentality, I was familiar with “shows”—but I guess they weren’t!  Anyway, after her daughter began raising rabbits for 4H, my sister became actively involved with the Pennsylvania Rabbit Breeders Association as well as the 4H group, and during their convention this weekend (snow or not!), they will have a little fundraiser table, so that’s what my card set is for!  Her rabbits are soooo cute and often win ribbons at her “shows”!!  But before I show you that, I want to announce the winner of my blog candy from this post!  All the ideas were great---most of them involved some bling, glitter and CANDY!  It was hard to choose the best idea, so I just did a random pull and Sherry Bee was the winner!!!  SO she will be getting the Cuddles & Hugs set! 

On to the Rabbit Show stuff—here is the basket, not decorated yet, but I am running out of time:

Yes, the Love box is included, along with a post-it note holder and pen:

The newly-blinged up Love box (I did add a little tiny bit of bling in the form of some heart-shaped rhinestones I found and some flat hologram stickers and of course, candy!):

And the note cards, all made with Cosmo Cricket papers and the absolutely adorable PTI set, Tiny Treats: Valentine.  Here are all ten, real quick:

That’s it for now…..I have a couple other things on deck.  We are gearing up for a major snow storm this weekend—I am psyched!!!  Have a great Friday, everyone!
