I started my design with the front of a vintage get well card. I bought a large scrapbook of vintage get well cards at an estate sale, and love giving them a second life. I stamped the Tim Holtz Mini Blueprint Bunny in Artprint Brown ink on the vintage paper from the inside of the card. I inked him, colored his little bow tie with Spectrum Noir markers, and added some tiny bling before placing him in the flower bed.
I covered the get well sentiment at the top right with an SRM Sticker sentiment since these vibrant blooms just screamed spring to me. I added another SRM sticker sentiment at the bottom.

Oh, I LOVE this... it's a great take on your inspiration piece! How cool that you are breathing new life into the vintage cards... just like your gorgeous spring blooms are doing to my winter weary self.
