NEWS FLASH!!!! – Hot off the press….PLEASE click here to see the NEW BATCH OF GOODIES that Stampin' Up! is offering for YOU to choose as a FREEBIE for Sale-A-Bration…..I am going to have a photo at the end of this post….but let's end this Sale-A-Bration with a BANG! This is the BEST time to stock up on staples and be able to get goodies for free!
Also….scroll and see the winner from yesterday – super cute card!
Last year I did a post on this little guy, you can click here to see that post but I get so many emails and pinterest pins asking about this little guy, I decided to post about him again as some of the product from last year has been discontinued!
Now you talk about easy! These are a cinch and they are also a great project for both the young and old to make for a quick project. The difference is that the embossing folder that I used for last years oval was discontinued but you will be able to see that I am showing you (2) different ways that you can do it!
You can refer back to the other post for the "specifics" on the scoop but basically all you need is:
- Take a piece of card-stock 2" X 11" then score it at 4 1/2"…turn it around and scored it at 4 1/2"
- Use the Tag Topper Scalloped Punch and punch both ends (if you do not have this style, one of the other Topper Punches would work just fine)
- Being totally "type A", I measure down 1 1/4" and made a pencil line so that was my guide to place the oval framelit before I ran it through the Big Shot. (If you are not using the framelits and just using the Extra Large Oval Punch – just punch it out)
- To make the "ring" – I used the oval framelits #1 & #2
- I like using the Seam Binding Ribbon to tie the bows, the cotton ribbon will also be perfect.
- Fru-fru and decorate as you would like. (Did you notice that I wrapped the SAB Lost Lagoon Bakers Twine around the little guys neck to hide the red ribbon. I thought he looked handsome)
If you do not have the oval framelits, you can easily use the Extra Large Oval punch but I think that it is super cute with the ring. You can see that I added white dashes around the oval opening (which helped jazz it up a bit) and maybe I should have down that on the Lost Lagoon one.
Because the Oval punch Bunny does not take up as much room, I was able to add the sentiment, "Happy Easter" from the Teeny Tiny Wishes and then used the window words punch and the Modern Label Punch.
Both of them are super cute and they are always a hit. I hope hope that you give them a try – run to the store and get your little bunnies….they have "sheep" too but we already know how to make the cutest sheep in the whole wide world.
I hit the "hay" early last night (I think I pushed myself to much) so I will announce the winner for the Monday Challenge tomorrow as I am sure that people were just starting to rock and roll when I was going to sleep (for me to miss the Voice – you know I was pooped!)

I was at the store last night and saw the bunny and thought I had to find your instructions from last year and woo-la, here they are! This is so cute and perfect for a table favor for everyone this Easter!!!
Adorable Susan!
Hop’n down the bunny trail….I loved these bunnies last year and still love them! I also loved your Christmas take on this as well. I have made them for both occasions and will continue again this year. They look cute next to the sheep…nice variety!
The You’re right. This idea is super cute!! I like the ring around the oval the opening. Fun stuff!
So cute! The store here hasn’t had those bunnies, yet. I’ll have to see if they do, now. I know some kids who would like this!
Cyberhugs!
Cute projects!
Really cute. I was in search for something for my “Senior” exercise class. Think I found the prize. Thanks for sharing.
Love your card Sharon! So clever and I love the little houses!
Super cute bunny tag holder Susan. Loved it and you kept it simple and easy!
SO cute. Must try!
Love Sharon’s card!
You see Lucy…we were on the same page! Have fun making them – I bet you will be smiling!
Can you find them over there? I bet you have some super fun and yummy chocolates~
This would be PERFECT for a Senior Class…I plan to pay a visit to some dear family friends that are in a Nursing Home…and of course, I will bring a sheep too!
AGREE….it is amazing – it really is a fun technique!
Awe….thanks Lynn!
I made these last year after you featured them and they were a huge hit at my son’s school. I know they’ll love receiving them again this year! 🙂 Great job, Sharon, on your card!
