Shadow Puppet Bunny Cards: 2-in-1 CardsI’ve been thinking about hand shadows a lot, recently. The kids and I have been making all kinds, mostly rabbits, on our kitchen and bedroom walls at night. The idea for today’s card was born in these shared moments and in the optimistic idea that Summer is really going to come. I’m so excited to share.
Midnight sun around the corner, the time for playing with shadows in upon us now! I hope these cards bring both you and receivers extended moments of happiness + play. Wishing you a wonderful weekend and I hope that you can try these at home. Chick and Bunnytemplate here: (Click here for PDF.) Drape a sheet up, as a curtain, and let the kids put on a puppet show!
