Here comes Peter..... No Wait!
Totally NOT a boy bunny... can't be Peter Cottontail. She is definitely a bunnette? Bunnita? Are girl bunnies still just bunnies? Hmmmm.....I should ask my friend Joni.... who has real bunnies at her house. I think we need to name her! Leave a comment with a name for this cute bunny, and if we (the kids and I) like your name best, this card will be on it's way to your house! I'm picking a winner on Saturday so she can be on her way by Monday. :)
I saw a bunny made by Tallymom on SCS. Click on her name to see her awesome gallery. She does amazing things with punches, and you all know how much I LOVE my punches. Thanks for the inspiration babe!! YOU rock!
This cutie is totally made with just punches! I used the 1 3/8 circle punch for her face, the small and large oval punches for her ears. The 1/2 inch circle punch for the snout (is it a snout? cheeks?), 1/4 inch circle for the nose, and the 1/4 inch square for the teeth. Finally, the double circle for the eyes. Her little bow is just a knot attached with a mini glue dot. The ear is folded over with half of a dimensional in between. You know those little pieces of the dimensionals sheets around the edge? I just cut out one of those... gotta use every piece.
Of course I wasn't done with my punches yet. The bottom of the card is a strip of the new Petals & Paisleys DS paper. Then I cut a piece of cool caribbean card stock 1 1/2 x 4 1/4 and used the slit punch (pushed all the way in) side by side to make that scallop. After you punch it all the way across, then I trimmed it down a bit and placed it over the top of the DS paper. Add some ribbon, and some colored brads (with the spongey mat from the Crafter's Took Kit and the poker thingy) and the bottom was complete. Before all of that though, the whole card was rollered with the Petals Jumbo wheel in whisper white craft ink. I also did the same to the so saffron piece under the bunny. The tab on the side is the spring stamp from Everyday Flexible Phrases on the new Round Tab Punch of course. :)
Okay..... I totally spent A's preschool time on stampin' instead of laundry. I MUST go and get milk and do at least a few loads of laundry.
Here comes Peter Cottontail, hopping down the bunny trail.....now that song will be in my head all day.... SNORT! What is her name?????? Tell me girls!!!!

Love your card. The bunny is so cute. My first thought was her name should be Petals or Gingham. Them when I saw that you had used the Petals and Paisley paper, I knew it should be Petals.
Hi Cambria - very cute card! Well, I put the question to my 10 year old daughter and her two friends and they came up with Lola, Lillie, and Bella. Not to mention Mrs. Bunnykins - LOL! There you have it, out of the mouths of babes! HUGS! Alex
Cambria,
This is awesome! As always you are soooo good! I'm glad you are up and running again :) My son came up with the name Miss Cutie or Jumpalina.
LOVE your bunny! :) She makes me smile. Cami - you make me smile with your sense of humor!
So cute! I want to make some for the kiddies. .....hoppin' down the bunny trail.....
Awwww cute! She wants to come live in New Jersey with me! I think she is definitely a "Babette"!
Funny bunny :)

/Helena in sweden
I think of that saying.... Silly rabbit, Trix are for kids....so I think she should be named Trixie! LOL...cute card. Love your blog too.
WAY cute, Cami!!
Her name HAS to be LanaRabbit, don't you think? ;) Or Hooty McHopper? (ha ha!)
LOVE ya babe!
Although I like the comment before me for Lanabunny...I've never been called a bunny myself. LOL I'm thinking since she is SO cute....BONITA BUNNY! Whadayathink?
~Lana B.~
I think her name should be Penelope. Seems like it goes with Peter!
Lynda
She is so stinkin' CUTE! How about Pinky? I was going to say Li'l Stinker, but I decided to keep it short! :)
She is adorable. I like names that start with the same letter so I'm going for Brigitta Bunny. Ida
That bunny is so cute!!! I like Gemima, I think it is a funny cute name, just like the bunny.... now send me that card!!!!
This bunny rocks!!! She is SOOOO cute! What an awesome creation with punches...I'm not good with names, so I won't go there...thanks for the GREAT card! Love your blog!
Beautiful card! She's just adorable!! How about calling her the Country Bunny after the wonderful book? It's one of the original children's books about a working mother!! (and it was written almost 60 years ago!!)
Thanks for sharing!

This card is sooooooooo CUTE! Love the colors and the scallop with the brads....how do you get the brads so perfectly centered???
How about Pasty. She looks like a Patsy - Here comes Patsy Cottontail. Darling card. Thanks for a link to Tallymom's gallery - I bookmarked it as I love my punches too and am always looking for inspiration in using them.
I think she could be Punchella, she she was made with punches.
My very simple 7 year old said "Cutie". I guess she likes it!
Adri calls all girlie bunnies "FLUFFY" so that would probably be her vote.
Glad you're feeling better, girl! HUGS! - jenn
I've gotta call her Niblet, or Nibs for short! Why? I had a sweet girl bunny and she'd nibble on everything! Love the card, Cambria!!
Hugs,
Nancy
You are such a genius. What a great card. Okay, since I'm from TX, how about I suggest some good ole Texas names like Ethel, Mabel, Iris. No? Alright, how about "Here comes Tammy Cotton Tail"? Kind of rolls off the tongue.
Linda
I vote for Hoppina, my kids say Hopper, but that isn't very girlie, so Hoppina it is.
Terry,
I use the poker and that soft mat from the crafter's tool kit and just eyeball the center. :)
Thanks for all your names girls... this will be hard one to pick! :)
CHEERS...
I DIDN'T KNOW YOU HAD A BLOG NOW,LOVE IT!
NAME FOR HER: BELLA BABBIT!!
So sweeeet Cami, I love her, you're SO clever!!
OK a name, how about BBB - Bombalicious Bunny Babe :)
BEatrice Bunny. She is soooooo cute
UMMM. You know the obvious name for this darling witlle wabbit is
HAREiette. (HEHEH) I am so glad you are feeling better Cami.
Myself, I like Binky Bunny. Gotta love alliteration!
Cambria,
Thanks for sharing your beautiful creations - you're an inspiration! Anyway, I think Peter's sister Priscilla is as cute as can be!
she looks like an Annabelle - I'm not sure where that came from, though :0)
I think I will add Marshmellow to the list of bunny names.
Love ya and your cards!!
Hello Cambria, love love the bunny card! She looks like a "Stella" to me.
Her name has got to be BorkaBunny!
What an adorable card! My daughter likes Fluffy (everything is always fluffy to her), but also likes Lillie Flower the best.
Beautiful! She looks like a Ms. Cottonbottom. Ms. Patricia Cottonbottom to be exact! Peter & Patricia sitting in a tree, k-i-s-s-i-n-g, first come love, then comes marriage.... the rest is history! Happy Easter all.
Brenda
Adorable card Cami! I didn't read all the entries, but I am going to suggest "Snickerdoodle". Ü
Debbie
If this isn't the CUTEST! You are SO GOOD, Girl! The strips, the scallops, the brads--all so fresh and innovative!
How about punchy rabbit? She is so adorable.
