Bunnies Three

I made these cute little bunnies to give to some little girls we know.  I think they are so cute.  Their headbands remind me of Olivia Newton-John and her Let's get physical video.  LOL!  I guess dating myself with that one.  LOL!  I cut them out using my Cameo Silhouette cutting machine and the pattern was a free one from SVGcuts.com.  Even if you don't have a Cameo, you could still get the free download and print it out and trace and cut on your DSP.    Would you like to receive one of these in the mail?  Anyone who places an order on my website by tomorrow and uses HOSTESS CODE RKNKDPE9 will receive the little kit in the mail to put together.  Hurry though, tomorrow is the last day for Sale-a-bration and earning free product.

Have I Got a Bunny for You!

I'm going to call today Terrific Tuesday.  Why?  Because I've been able to be in my office all day, well after I got the laundry done, and play with my Cameo some more. I'm so glad that a couple of weeks ago I organized a bunch of my 12" x 12" paper.  It is now out in the open where I can get at it easily so those luscious Stampin'Up! colors are right there for me to see.  As you will see with today's projects I used Coastal Cabana and Strawberry Slush.  These are colors that will only be available until the end of May since they are In Colors and will have been around for two years.  I am so sad to see these go.  Coastal Cabana has got to be my favorite of all time.  I've used in for Summer projects, Winter projects and everything in between.  It is a color that has really coordinated with so many other colors.  Here is another bunny I made using my Cameo.  I used all Stampin'Up! products.  The bunny itself in made from Blushing Bride.

Don't you think the Coastal Cabana Thick Bakers Twine works great for whiskers?  This time I used the bow tie image that came with the bunny download.  It may be just slightly larger than the Bow Die Punch.  I attached his nose, feet and bow tie with SU Dimensionals.  Almost wish I would have done that to the ears as well.

I then had to try the cute little Easter Egg box that also comes in the download.  I used the Petite Petal Punch and punched out 5 of the flowers.  I spritzed them with water and crumpled them up and stacked and attached with a Mini Brad.  I then positioned them how I wanted and let them dry.  The leaves are from the Bird Builder Punch.  To finish it off I added a Rhinestone on top of the brad.  The Happy Easter is from Teeny Tiny Wishes and punched out with the Modern Label Punch and attached with Dimensionals.  The top of the box has a piece of acetate and helps keep the candy in the box, although I'm sure it won't last long in the box.  ;)

Here's Mr. Bunny with the egg box.

Here the bunnies are together.

Thank you so much for letting me share my projects.  I promise I will get back to some stamping.  I love that I can use a machine like the Cameo Silhouette and use my Stampin'Up! goodies with it because I will always be a SU gal.  No fear there.

My First Cameo Project

Hey there friends!  I'm not sure if I shared with you the fact that my family gave me a Silhouette Cameo for Christmas.  It is an e-cutter machine that lets you cut out all kinds of designs and projects and in all kinds of media.  The most basic being cardstock and vinyl.  I know there are lots more things it can do, but for now that is what I know and I'm working at perfecting that first before I go any farther.  I wanted this machine so that I could use SU's beautiful designer papers and cardstocks to make 3D type decorative/gift ideas.  I had first found out about this by watching a video by SVGcuts.com and then I started dreaming.  I have such a good family so when I said I would like one, they of course listened.  I received it for Christmas, but with health reasons and lots of other not fun stuff it sort of got put on the back burner, but I've really been wanting to have some fun time with it.  Well, since my birthday was yesterday, this week is my fun time.  So here is my first project.

I bought the cut file from SVGcuts.com, downloaded it into the program and then went to work.  Once I got the pieces cut, putting it together was very easy.  The machine not only puts in the score lines, but also the numbers to tell you what order to put it together and it's all cut out for you.  This little cutie stands about 9" tall and 6-1/2" wide.  The head lifts off and you can put candy or a gift inside if you so choose or you could just use it as a decor item.  I will admit there is a slight learning curve with this machine.  Even though I am quite tech savvy when it comes to computers, this little machine has had me scratching my head at times.  Yes, you do use it with your computer.  I used all SU products to make it and the bow tie is made using the Bow Punch.  There was a file to cut the bow out, but punching one out quickly with my SU punch was way easier.  I used SU brads and the Candy Dots for the eyes.  The feet are attached using SU dimensionals to give some added dimension.  I think this machine will be fun to use and of course I have plenty of SU products to make my projects.  Oh, I almost forgot.  I stamped the body and head using the little flower from the set From the Garden.  The colors I used were Whisper White and Strawberry Slush.

Well I hope you enjoyed this.  If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.  Thanks as always for stopping by.

Blessings,
