Birthday Bunny Knits

Hello, I made one more birthday card, this time for my sister Dianne. She loves to knit so I thought this Hop-it, Friends stamp would be perfect for a card for her.

The stamp is quite large so I kept the card very simple and just frames the stamped area with a purple yardstick and then raised the panel on foam tape on the card-base.

I coloured the cuties with Copic Markers.



Below is a list of the supplies I used to make this card.

Stamps: Stampabilities - Will Knit For Friends
Ink: MFT Stamps - Black Licorice Hybrid Ink
