Bunny Rabbit Shaped Card

This projects was inspired by this card made by JustLuLu. I really loved it and wanted to make my own version, so I made my own template in photoshop and I’m sharing it with you! I love shaped cards.

Supplies: Paper, Sewing Machine, Craft Knife, Template (download my template here.)

1. Download and print out the template, and cut a card the right size. I made the template for a 4″x6″ card.

2. Using a craft knife, Cut around the template, leave the tips of the ears uncut so the your card is still attached in a few places.

3. Cut out 9 1″ circles from different spring themed patterned papers.

4. Layer them in groups of 3 and sew a line down the middle. Bend the top 2 circles up so they’re 3d.

5. Adhere them onto your card so that they look like “bunny tails”.

I also loved how the original card I was inspired by had stitches around the edges so I copied that look using a white marker.

Perfect for both Spring and Easter, right?

How do you feel about shaped cards?? Love them, Hate them? I like them, but I don’t make them very often.
