First off I just want to say...I'm not too sure I like this card and I'm not even sure my husband will even LIKE it! His motto is, "Less is more." EEEK!!!
I felt I needed to do this challenge because I'm not comfortable stamping animals... So thank you Wendy. I enjoyed playing with these bunnies, but I think I'll be sticking to flowers!
This will be my husbands Father's Day card from my 15mth old Brooklyn Sophia. My five year old has made him a card already!
WHY did I choose bunnies for a GUY card? Well, one of our FAVORITE books that we read the girls is, "Guess How Much I Love You," by Sam McBratney. It's the sweetest little story. It's one we don't mind reading over and over and over...
I'm not sure if you'll like my card, but I'm posting it anyway...

I like your card!...and I'm sure your DH will too....considering you made it and given to him by his dear daughter! Love the addition of the carrots! Great coloring on the bunnies.

Oh Jenna, it's a very nice card and it's beautifully done, plus it has such meaning. . .a couple of key words you used are the reason this card will be special to your beloved: one of "our" favorite books "we" read to the girls.

Rabbits are my favorite animals and I love your bunnies! I especially like that this is so personal, that's the best bit about card making! I like the colors you've chosen, those two little carrots and the charm! It's sweet and masculine at the same time!

I think you handled those animals just fine, the bunnies are sweet and I think your hubby will love it. You've got some talented kids - already stamping! ha ha

Couldn't be a better card for "Father's Day"! Expecially the meaning it has behind it. Save this one for Brooklyn in her little book. She'll be delighted to look at it over and over again as she get older. Beautiful earthtone color and great shading and coloring!

I love your card! I think you have found a new style of stamping! Love the colors and love how you were able to add extra "stuff" and still have a very manly card. Way to go!
