Hi friends. Busy day today. Hope everyone had a great Wednesday.
I wanted to share something with you today about my card
If you have been stamping for a long time, you may remember the Holly Pond Hill line of bunnies from Uptown Stamps (no longer in business). Well, I receive the Newsletter from JoAnna Sheen (she is a well known crafter who appears on TV there regularly) and lo and behold, she is featuring an unmounted line of these Holly Pond Hill bunnies. So, I went to the cabinet and opened the drawer and there were 10 of these adorable stamps from years ago! I inked up the tea party one, and made a card.
Out of curiosity, I went on ebay and there are some of the originals for sale, and some are listed as high as $39.99 each (good luck with that!).
My card is simple, wanted to let this little scene be the center of attention.
Pink Card base is a Spellbinders Large Scallop circle Grand die. Spellbinders classic circle dies.
A white lace doily. Small white flowers with a pink center and the blue ribbons. Colored with Copics. Everything old is new again!!!
Thanks for stopping by today. Have a great Thursday. Until later...........

Awwwww such a sweet image and coloured so beautifully. How lovely to remember that you have a collection of those cuties and it sounds like they are worth a bit of money now too!

This is precious. I love your coloring too. $39.00???? Forget that, I'll just hop in the car and come borrow yours LOL
I love these stamps and am thrilled that they are being reissued. I have only one and cannot afford them on ebay.
Your card is darling and I love that it looks like a doily with its pretty shape
Oh my this is precious Sue!! Love the image and the doily adds the perfect touch to it! HUGS :)
HPH was one of the very first stamps I purchased. I use to have one of the father and son fishing. Thanks for the adorable blast from the past!
What a scrumptious card, so feminine and lovely!Your colouring is fab! To think you have a collection of these bunnies!!!
Saw Holly Pond for the first time when I was was new to blogland, about 3 1/2 yrs ago, and absolutely adored them but couldn't get any and then they just vanished and nobody seemed to use them. Then I saw them on Joanna Sheen, haven't got them yet but i'm working on it.
This is so magical, a beautiful and enchanting creation Sue.
Happy crafting
