Bunny Sunday

Mornin' everyone!  Hope your week went well.

Recently I received a sweet surpirse in my mailbox all the way from Canada.  My friend Mandy, the creative force behind Bijou's Whimsy, sent me this awesome print of one of her colored pencil drawings (of course, the watermark doesn't appear on my print, I took this pic from her Etsy shop):
Mandy is a fellow animal (bunny) lover and knew that we had lost our beloved Patches and Nutmeg recently.  She sent me this print to cheer me up and wrote a little dedication on the back to them.  Thank you so much Mandy!  It now hangs above my work bench and provides me with inspiration and a beautiful reminder of my sweet bunnies everyday.

Check out more of Mandy's work in her Etsy shop.  Her style is uniquely hers and full of great energy.

One from the archives:
Happy Bunny Sunday!

How sweet! Mandy is the best, isn't she? I'm lucky enough to have a piece of her work also, and it's a real treasure.

That photo of Patches and Nutmeg- so funny! Thanks for sharing the memory.
