Bunny Basket

Happy Wednesday to everyone.  I hope you all had a great Valentine's Day.
My card today is one that initially I was not very fond of...it's always disappointing when I make a card and don't like it...all that hard work!  But as I played a little more with the elements and added some things, it grew on me :)
I'm really happy with how the basket turned out.  It was so cute, and yet it seemed like anything I put behind it just didn't mesh very well...but I kept trying!  I think the blue dots and the banner are what really pulled it all together for me.
The basket and all it's details are cut from the Cricut Easter cartridge.  I embossed the white behind the bunny with my Swiss Dots folder and the bottom of the basket with the peacock folder in the Animal Prints bundle.  The background frame is cut from the Lacy Labels cartridge and then embossed with D'vine Swirls.  I then inked some blue on top of it to help the swirls stand out and not be so flat...otherwise it just didn't have much pop to it...
