This is my card for todays challenge, just around the corner. This is my story:
1. My friend Debbie works with a gal that needs a card for a friend who just graduated from a teaching school. She just wanted one with flowers and congratulations.
2. After I upload this card I have to make a life saving rescue since my husband is at work. It is usually his job.
3. Our household is the victim of wild-child crazed adrenaline junkie baby bunnies. I think it is two brothers or maybe a brother and a sister who is the ultimate tom-boy.
4. They keep jumping down our window well (6 ft. drop btw!) in one of the large basement windows. When go down in the basement and look through the window they are peering back at us as if to say...Come save us!
5. This will be the 4th time! It's like they are bungee jumping, bunny bungee jumping without the bungee. It must be fun cuz why else would they continue to do it. They are about the size of an orange, adorable but obviously juvenile delinquents!
6. I have to climb down into the window well which is a feat in itself, scoop them up and release them. They scamper away as if so to say, Yipee! We can do it again!
7. This is getting old, where is there mother for Pete's Sake...or should I say for Peter Rabbit's Sake!

Cindy this card is GAWGEOUS!!!! Love all the flowers, and the cutting....wow!!! Gorgeous colors, gorgeous layout. You and Dawn are amazing at flower arranging. So not my forte!!! Love the little bugged panel in the middle too, and of course the dp and perfectly placed sentiment!! Awesome! Maybe the bunnies just want you to adopt them????????? Maybe their mother was eaten by a big mean raccoon. Maybe they have a bully brother who keeps pushing them down the well and they need to be rescued permanently. I mean, if this is the fourth time and all.......

Love this card, Cindy. We too had wild bunnies that did the same thing. It was so cute to look out the window and see them. We had to lower a step ladder in to get them out. Drove my kitty nuts to sit in the window and watch the trapped bunnies.

This is really GORGEOUS. Love all the pretty flowers and your background! Love the bunny story! We have bunnies, but they are not so sweet because they eat my plants.

Very pretty. Love all those cut out flowers with the brads. You are the brad queen. I, also, like the way you did the corners. Great job.
Gee, I think those bunnies think you are the mother. We may have to call you "Motherbunny" now as well as "Mothermark".
You had some babies here that needed you lastnight. We just got in from PA and the grand dog was still here. I let her in the back yard and heard this weird sound. My bad little grand dog, ofcourse, a boxer, had a little bunny in her mouth. I will ship the rest of the crew of bunnies to you. Watch for the UPS package marked, "Fragile, Bunnies Inside".
