I turned the sketch 90 deg. I also placed panel #5 under the circle....didn't want to block out any of the image.
As for the image: I had watercolored this image awhile back. It was detailed and took quite a bit of time, so I had the foresight to scan and save it. Today, I resized and printed it on lighter weight watercolor paper(my printer does not handle 140# watercolor paper)

Awesome. Love your coloring on the bunny. Your efforts paid off, it's stunning. You are so clever to copy it and print it again. I like the textured background. A gorgeous Easter card. Well done with the sketch. TFS

That bunny is so life like - the shadings are unbelievable . . . I like the sketch turned like that so that the piece that to me looked like a post can now be a sentiment banner.

Sallie....I truly wish we lived near each other cuz I would love to sit and watch you perform your magic.....I stare at your cards for a long time often saying...."How does she get such beauty from stamps?".....it truly amazes me and I just want you to know I am a big fan.....why have you not been in the DD yet??? Deserved for sure. (unless I missed your reign when I was MIA due to open heart surgery)

Your watercolor bunny watercolor image is extraordinary! Brilliant idea to scan and resize. There are times I like an image, but doesn't fit my layout. Simply Gorgeous Easter card!!

Oh my, Sallie, this is unbelievable. Love the watercolored bunny image, perfect for an Easter card. It's very sweet, and I guess we did have brown bunnies on the brain today. Your card is fabulous.

The shades in that rabbit are incredibly beautifully done! You managed to paint fur, something not many can do! So glad you saved this wonderful painting to use it again!

As soon as I saw this sweetheart bunny rabbit, I knew it was familiar, Sallie. What a great way to use this colored image over again without going through all the process of water coloring; although I'm sure it took awhile to get it sized and printed too! Such a sweet Easter card~
