Just like yesterday’s card, I water colored the bunny on Shimmery White cardstock.  I used the Easter Bunny Punch to crop him out, and adhered him to a stitched square.

I am thrilled to share with you my Makeover Monday project.  I used the Cottage Rose stamp set and stepped up yesterday’s, Simple Sunday’s card.

To appeal to the avid stamper, I made several changes to my Simple Sunday card.  First, I colored the Designer Series Paper with Pool Party and Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blends Markers. 

Next, I changed the color of the tag to Pear Pizzazz, wrapped the ribbon around the entire panel and added some embellishments.  

The inside is stepped up as well.
