Easter Tags - Bunny bottom & drink cup -

Made these whimsy Tags for Starbucks Baristas at Starbucks I frequent. The bunny bottom is from Simon 2021 Easter Card Kit with bunny in a bucket and bucket cut off. The cup is from Honey Bee Stamps. Colored with Copic markers. Added a sparkle pom pom for bunny tail. Recycled cardboard from cereal box covered with pattern paper. Used Hero Arts tag die. Added ribbon.

Today, I took the tags and asked them their fav color (blue, green, pink, white, yellow) and handed them a tag with bunny tail having their fav color.
