I sure hope the trucking business picks up. I have too much time on my hands. I wanted to give this punched bunny another try. I wanted it to be jumping over a fence. I turned today's sketch. I made my gate for panel 3. I used my word window punch to make the fence posts. The gate is an oval that I cut the bottom off. I scored the gate 3 times and added a brad handle. I used 3 different brown colored pencils to make the faux wood.
Bunny was so excited to see a bowl of harvested carrots just sitting in the middle of the field. Mrs. Farmer had just picked them when she heard a scream coming from the farm house. Her darling children were inside so of course she dropped everything to see what had happened. The youngest child had dipped his cup into the fish bowl and scooped out the family pet. He proceeded to pour the poor fish onto the floor. The fish flopping on the farm house floor as three frantic children tried to catch it was the scene that greeted Mrs. Farmer. In all the hullabaloo of rescuing the fish she forgot the carrots. All the better for bunny. Now he can take them back to Cindy's teaparty to share with the other bunnies.

Whoo Hoo! Bunny #4 redeemed himself! Good thing!!! He is definately earning some brownie points (ooh! Brownies, lets do brownies next week, giggle!) by bringing a bowl of carrots back to the party!
Marilynn, your cards are multiplying fast today...just like bunnies do! And each and every one is special in its own right! I love the fence and this bunny butt and the adorable bowl of carrots! You rock....
I am fine with the trucking business not picking up! Snort! I wonder if I have a teapot with a fish flopping on the floor! I hope! I hope! Giggle!

Wow - 4 cards and a story to go with it!!! You are rockin' and rollin' with this one. I keep hearing the song "Don't Fence Me In" when I look at this one. That fence is wonderful. I should have thought to use a cotton ball for my bunnies tail. The pompom I used I had to pull off the bottom of a little snowman I had in my stash. Wonderful card once again!

Awwww this is so cute. I just love your fence. I used to read a story to my girls that was about bunnies. Wish I could think of the name. This turned out great MariLynn. I am so glad that you have time to create but pray for a better economy to help your business...Hugs.
