Remembrance Day - November 11th

Hello again from a very hot and sunny Melbourne. We are in a bit of a spring heat wave here with hot and humid summer temperatures. So for all of you looking at this post from Australia I hope that you are able to have a cool day somewhere inside and remember to slip, slop slap to help avoid skin cancer.

Today I have for you Soldier Bunny. Sunshine brought out a few images and sentiments to coincide with Remembrance Day which is November 11th. It is the day that we remember the end of World War 1 and subsequent wars and all the brave men and women who fought for our Country.

Soldier bunny is very cute and I happen to be looking for a card sketch to use for Soldier bunny when a came across a challenge at Crazy 4 Challenges and they had a challenge to use an easel card. Well I had never seen one so I looked for the instructions and I like this video that I found to explain how to put one together. I hope you like Sunshine’s Soldier bunny and Sunshine’s Sentiment: Lest we Forget.
