***THIS POST WILL REMAIN ON THE TOP UNTIL APRIL 5TH***
Welcome to the April Bunny Blog Hop
Hosted by Made by Jacqueline!

If you are here from ANNA then you are in the right spot.

In honor of Easter we are all making a project with a BUNNY on it!
************
In addition to my BUNNY project I'm blessed enough to have an actual Bunny to help 'model' my project. Her name is Hope, she is our 'pseudo' House Bunny: In other words she has free 'hop' of the house, as long as we're awake and home. Overnight and when we leave she's back in her cage for safety. Though she is truly Queen of the House (Alpha Bun!) she has 2 Dog Minions who can get overly playful/annoyed with her and she refuses to acknowledge that she is much more fragile than them.
Silly Bunny!
************
Hope, my project and her 'pay':
a chocolate bunny! nom.
My Project is an Easter Theme Wall Hanging.
I started with a wooden sign I bought at the $ store for $2.
It had a Faux 'Coffee Ad' on it.
What I liked was the Deep Dark Green with the Cream Line.
(There was a red line too before the actual graphic, but I covered both.)
I used the text from an email that makes the rounds this time of year... ;O)
Printing out after editing and colorizing in Word.
The Pattern Paper is: Glitter Bunny Flocked Flower Patch by Making Memories.
The Wood Cutout is by Solar Wood Cuts, a Local Guy I see at several of the fairs and craft sales around here.
Flowers and Plastic Eggs (sliced in 1/2) are Stash Grabs.
I'm so pleased with how Colorful and Bright this project turned out!
Sign Reads:
ALL I EVER NEEDED TO KNOW ABOUT LIFE
I LEARNED FROM THE EASTER BUNNY:
Don’t put all of your eggs in one basket.
Walk softly and carry a big carrot.
Everyone needs a friend who is all ears.
There’s no such thing as too much candy.
All work and no play can make you a basket case.
A cute little tail attracts a lot of attention.
Everyone is entitled to a bad hare day.
Let happy thoughts multiply like rabbits.
Some body parts should be floppy.
Keep your paws off other people’s jellybeans.
Good things come in small sugar-coated packages.
The grass is always greener in someone else’s basket.
An Easter bonnet can tame even the wildest hare.
To show your true colors – you have to come out of your shell.
The best things in life are still sweet and gooey.

Hi Sarah ... It took me a while, but I finally found where to link to be a follower. I must be having a bad HARE day. LOL. I loved all those bunny sayings on your project and it's given me an idea on how to use them. So I'll be scraplifting that for sure. I guess that's better than stealing your chocolate!! CUTE BUNNY!!

I just loved your poem...it reminds me of the
classic "Everything I needed to know about Life I learned from Kindergarten". What a great idea. I really like your cute bunny, is it yours or a borrowed one. The poem is so well decorated and framed. Does the bunny actually eat chocolate? If so isn't it Ironic. Love it !!! Leslie

Beautiful bunny! My hubby had a bunny that would bite the back of his mothers legs every time she would open her oven door just so he could get some. Your bunny eating chocolate reminded me of his sweet tooth. Too cute.
