Some bunny loves you

Easter is almost here and of course I am excited as it means not only will I have some time with family but also more time to craft.  I am looking forward to putting my Easter display out which I will show you in my Easter post.  However, this weekend will be spent making Birthday cards for family members.

In today's blog I thought I would share with you some of the Easter cards I have made using my Cameo Silhouette this week.  I am getting on really well with it as you will see.

This first one has an embossed background called Woodland Glade from Tattered Lace.  I love the little images of an owl, fox pigeon and hare.  The Easter Egg is a die from Tattered Lace.   The Happy Easter, grass and Easter Eggs were made from a design from the Silhouette Design Store.  It did a great job cutting out the grass.



This next is made for the lovely man in my life, my husband. I have used another Tattered Lace embossing folder called Love Bird Berries which is appropriately named!  I downloaded this image from the design store and resized it in my Silhouette Studio to fit a 7x5 card.  

I decided to work with three copies of the image so I could cut them out separately in blue, green and brown.  The first was cut in blue.  Then before I cut the next in green I used the rubber tool to erase parts of the image that I didn't need to cut so it left the upper frame with the leaves on.  The purpose of this was to save wasting card.  Then I repeated this so I could cut out the bunnies.  Once they were all cut out it was just a case of layering them up and assembling the card.  The sentiment chosen was perfect.

Here is a sneeky peek at the inside of the card.


 and finally, a card shaped as an Easter Egg.  Again, another image downloaded from the Silhouette Design Store for about 50p!




Enjoy your weekend crafters everywhere.
