Today I have used the Bunny Poop cut file & digital stamp set from The Cutting Cafe, one of our generous sponsors this week, to make a bundle of Easter treats. The Bunny Poop set comes with a variety of cut file designs for pillow boxes, along with a variety of sentiments and some Easter images.
First up is the pillow box with the bunny window.
These were so quick and easy to make, it actually took me longer to fill them than to make them. I opened the cut file on my Silhouette Studio design mat, enlarged it to be 7 1/2" tall (with the end flaps open) then cut with my Silhouette Cameo. I trimmed some acetate to cover the bunny "window" and adhered it in place, then adhered the side flap of the pillow box. I embellished each pillow box with a die cut black bow tie (Take A Bow Cutaways by Winnie & Walter) and some sparkling bling (Bella borderlines) then filled them with a rainbow of tasty jelly beans.
Next came some more pillow boxes, both styles with the same sentiment, just with different verse sizes, so that I had room to include a sparkling bow on some for a more feminine touch.
As with the previous pillow boxes, I opened the cut file on my Silhouette Studio design mat and enlarged it to be 7
1/2" wide (
with the end flaps open). I printed them on 8
1/2" x 11" Kraft cardstock, then cut with my Silhouette Cameo. I printed lots of cute little bunnies (from the same
Bunny Poop set), coloured them with Copic markers, fussy cut, then went around the edges with a black marker. As I had printed the bunny image on the pillow box bases, it was just a matter of adhering the fussy cut bunnies on the bases, getting the whiskers aligned perfectly. I confess that I had a little trouble opening the first pillow boxes I made, so I cut a little opening to a flap at each end with a circle punch, so that it's easy to poke your finger in and pull the pillow box open.
To add to the fun of the sentiment, I printed some jelly bean digital paper and fussy cut the black jelly beans to embellish under the "bunny poop" sentiment. I added a metallic hemp cord bow to finish off the pillow boxes with the smaller verse.
Now I have bundles of treats filled and ready for sharing with family, friends and neighbours this Easter.
