"Do the Bunny Hop"

Create project using a bunny or a chick on it.

The Creative Features of this cartridge are...

I had so much fun making a couple of Easter projects with this sweet cartridge.

Let me show you my card...

This adorable little girl is from page 58 in the handbook.This cut was made at 3 1/2 inches.There are so many wonderful layers and details on the images from this cartridge that you can leave it just as it is and the image looks great. But you know...I had to add a bit of bling! Just some inking, pearls around the hem and sleeve of her dress and a few gems for the flowers.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~My next Easter project started out as a plain paper mache box that I painted a lovely shade of blue.I can't tell you the shade of this particular blue because I grabbed several (almost empty) bottles of paint that held various shades of blue and dumped them into a container with ivory colored paint. As my Emma says,"you get what you get and you don't pitch a fit"! After painting the inside and outside of the box, it was time for the fun to begin!I love the way it turned out...

That sweet little bunny is from page 34 and is cut at 4 inches.I used the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder for the bunny and inked up all the edges.Those cute little mats under the bunny are cut using the Baby Girl Font 1. Look at the last few pages in your handbook and you will find these great solid squares that make wonderful mats! I cut 2 of the plaid mats at 4 and 3/4 inches and used pop-dots between them. The white mat is cut at 5 inches and was also run through my Cuttlebug using the Swiss Dots embossing folder.

Using the Baby Girl Font 2 and Baby Girl Font 2 Shadow at one inch, I added Emma's name to the side of the box. The other 3 sides are decorated with butterflies and flowers found on pages 55 and 66.Don't you just love the pom-poms?~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~While this cartridge has some adorable images for little girls, it works great for big girls also.Look what I found while I playing around on the computer doing research for this project....

Isn't this gorgeous? Just look at all the layers on that flower!
