Interaction makes this Easter card extra fun,
when a pair of layered bunnies play Peek-A-Boo
as they spin in and out from behind
the front panel.
Sturdy dimensional front and back construction with
corner
finger holes conceals the spinner works
which functions with regular size brad
and cut slots.
Make bunnies spin by
moving backside scallop circle wheel.
Front has scallop and
plain circle medallion
with three blossoms (center blossom camouflages
the
spinner brad) and layered word cut "hippity hoppity".
