Birthday Bunny

 Well, it's been a long strange year.  I think I've only made two cards - a birthday card in January, and then a sympathy card in May.  

A special friend's birthday was coming, and I finally felt inspired enough to make this simple card.  I copied the basic design from a card I made three years ago.  The starry background and stitched circle opening are from "Starry Circle" by My Favorite Things.  The stars are cut from a piece of watercolor patterned paper by Lawn Fawn.  The stitched rectangle is from "Bundle of Stitched Shapes" by Simon Says Stamp.  The bunny is from a new set and new company (for me), "Birthday Wishing" by Colorado Craft Company - the illustrator is Anita Jeram, a well-known children's book illustrator.  The sentiment is from the "Hooray" stamp set by Neat & Tangled.

It felt good to be back in the craftroom, and I'm actually planning (and have started) to make some Christmas cards - something I've never done before!  Stay tuned.
