Bunny Shaker Card Tutorial

Hi everyone!  I know we are all trying to navigate through what’s going on in the world today, I hope you are all safe and well!  I am spending my time creating, it relaxes me and gives me focus in this uncertain time.  So with all that said, I have a little project to share with you.  It takes a bit of time, but I promise it’s worth the effort.  I love using Lori’s shaker card files.  She has lots, but I wanted one for Easter, so I decided to create my own.  After making several of Lori’s shakers, I’ve kind of figured out how to make my own.

I started with a this Easter Bunny Candy Wrap (SVG, Silhouette) in my Silhouette Software.  First bring up the box in the design page of your machine (box 1). Next release the compound path and ungroup.  You should be able just to select the bunny shape and bow now, (box 2 and 3).  Enlarge your bunny and bow to whatever size you need (box 4).

Now use the internal offset button and set to .145, move that little inset bunny over now from the original bunny.  On the inset bunny, now click the offset button and set to .145 and group the together.  Now your bunny perfectly matches up with the original shape (box 5).  Now keep your solid bunny shape and duplicate your outline shape 8 times (box 6).  You need 7 bunny shapes to make your shaker deep enough to fill with little sprinkles.  Now cut your shapes (box 7).  Layer 7 outline bunny shapes to the original bunny shape with liquid glue, stacking them on top of each other, box 4. Save one outline bunny to glue over the acetate.

Your stack of bunnies should be thick like below, make sure to let it dry really well (box 8).

Now for the fun part….add all your favorite little bits and glue a piece of acetate on.  Let it dry really well before trimming the acetate away.  Finish with your last bunny outline shape to make a nice finished shaker.

After my shaker was complete, I attached it with scor-tape to Lori’s 3D Stand up Easter Card (SVG, Silhouette) .  I just removed the original brown bunny and added my shaker bunny.  I used Echo Park Paper’s All Girl and I Love Sunshine papers.

Stay safe and well ~Cathy

A Little Gnome to Brighten Your Day!

Spring is here…Though you wouldn’t know it in Massachusetts!  We are expecting snow today, but the good news is that it’s New England and it will be spring again tomorrow.  I thought it would be fun to celebrate the season with this cute little gnome.  It’s a great card to send to someone… especially in these days of self distancing, it might just brighten someone’s day!

The Box Card Gnome Tulip Card (SVG, Silhouette) is really simple to piece together, and it folds flat to fit in an A2 Envelope for mailing! If you need a little help with the assembly, this post on how to make shaped box cards should get you pointed in the right direction!

I hope you all find a little happiness today!
