Waterfall Card

Made a waterfall card this morning!! It is for a swap on one of my groups. We needed to use purple & white and include at least one bunny! Amazingly, it is the first time I used this bunny rubber stamp. I have used all the other stamps from this Stampin UP set and finally got around to using this one! I followed rather loosely this Waterfall Card tutorial on Splitcoast Stampers!!
Used decorative paper on the card front and added my strip using eyelets. I don't use eyelets very often so it was fun to include them on this card. I added eyelets in the middle of little punchie flowers which helps add some dimension. The other images I used on the card are also from this set - the little dragonfly, the flowers and the "Just for you" saying which is on

the last panel. I chose to put the waterfall to the side a bit so I could add a little butterfly embellishment to the left of it. I added the flight trail with a fine tipped black Sharpie marker.

These are fun cards to make!! I found some very cool ones on Splitcoast especially this one that uses hot air balloons!! Follow this link to her blog and watch the little video to see how cool it looks when it is opened!!
