Happy Friday, peeps! A quick post today--it's hot and I'm headed to the pool for the first time this summer! My card today fulfills three challenges: Jingle Belles' Tic Tac Toe challenge; CAS on Sunday wants an animal; and Just Add Ink wants Christmas in July!
I pulled out an oldie but goodie image of these snowy rabbits and went to work:
I used the left column of animal, diecut and red; after stamping my bunnies, I cut them out with a Perennial Postage die and added a narrow mat of Real Red. The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp. It all went on a Smoky Slate card that was embossed with the Stitched With Whimsy die:
A pretty sentiment in Real Red went on the inside. This is an inexpensive stamp from Scrapbook.com and I sometimes have trouble with their stamps performing well, but I found if I use Versamark first, then ink directly onto the stamp again with colored ink, they work much better! Just be sure to clean your stamp before doing the double process, you don't want to get colored ink on your Versamark pad!
My Christmas stash is growing! Thanks so much for popping in today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

Love your sweet bunnies, Leanne. This is a wonderfully peaceful Christmas card. Have fun at the pool!
Those bunnies are adorable! You brought the entire card together with the Whimsy die & the red background. Very cute & creative!
Those bunnies are perfect framed in red and smoky slate. Stay cool in the pool!
You are so smart! LeAnne, that little bunny stamp was worth the extra ink! BTW you have the most wonderful inside sentiments for Christmas!
