Isn't he adorable! As you can see this is not my usual "less is more" style - and I had a blast doing it. My only concern now is that I got a little carried away with the 3D aspect of it so it won't fit in an envelope. Oh well, I'll just have to learn how to make a box .......

As you can see I didn't just decorate the front this time - this is the first time I've really done this and I suspect it won't be the last. But I deliberately made it plainer than the front - it should compliment not compete.

Here's a side view - apologies for the photography - not my forte (still learning) - but hopefully you can just about see that the main bunny is mounted on sticky pads. I've then printed & coloured a second pot/paws & stuck that over the first image with more sticky pads. I also layered strips of raffia under the pot to simulate a wooden bench, colouring it with copics & prismacolor to indicate light & shade.

Crap, your coloring is amazing! thank you for joining us in the spring challenge...i always look forward to seeing what you create!
Jane, holy cow...incredible coloring and I love how the inside compliments the wonderful outside. Thanks for playing with us at Pike's Playground! :)
So cute!! I tend to buy 61/2 inch square envelopes for my 6x6 cards to allow room for dimention and that works really well. I just slip a square of bubble wrap in there too. THis last time I ordered 6 1/4 x 6 1/4 inch envelopes and I can only fit flat cards in it. Its such a pain!
Wow! Sooooooooo pretty!! LOVE this card!
Truly wonderful. TFS!
gorgeous colouring, fab card
