Hi All, When I first saw Pretty Pink Posh's Cupcake Critters stamp set I knew I had to have it. All the images are so cute but the bunny, in particular, stole my heart. This is such a great birthday set and I highly recommend adding it to your stash. Image I'm sure it's no surprise that I chose to use the bunny for my card today.
