I'm all ears!

Digging through my drawers of individual stamps, I came across *Roger*, this adorable bunny from Rosie's Roadshow. I have neglected Roger for far too long, so out he came!


Sure, Roger can be an Easter/Spring time bunny, but I prefer him to wear his Psychologist hat and hop in the mail with words of encouragement, or an offering of a shoulder to lean on. The saying "I'm All Ears" really says it all, don't you think?

I stamped Roger twice on white cardstock and colored him with Copic markers. I die cut one of the images with a Nestabilities square. The other I cut out and attached over the first with thin chipboard. Sometimes I like thin chipboard for just a hint of elevation vs foam tape.

I added some green grass and finished the scene with the Copic Airbrush System. (I would be SO totally lost without that airbrush! You can get the system at Eclectic Paperie or at Ellen's Store. Both links are on my sidebar.)



The frame around Roger is created using different size Nestability square dies. Each one is slightly elevated again using thin chipboard.






I attached the sentiment to the frame with a Basic Gray button that is threaded with a thin piece of the green polka dot paper to match the frame. A few rhinestones finished off the corner.



For the base, I did a zig zag stitch around the edge of the matte using green thread that matches the cardstock (Ya, can you believe it? I actually had matching thread in my stash! Who knew!?!?)




Ok, so here's a tip... use transparent thread for your bobbin! That way you can change the color of thread all you want and not have to worry about having a bobbin to match! Cool huh!

Thanks for hopping by! (giggle)
