SUPER QUICK EASTER PROJECT

Hello friends, just popping in with a super quick Easter Project.

I used a brown baggie that I got some goodies in from a online craft order.

Some pretty yellow floral cotton fabric and a hot pink bow - among a few other misc items.

 

I recently purchased the Cricut Explore and I wanted to try it out on importing a Svg from the Cutting Cafe and on some fabric....it did great on both....

The bunny is from the EASTER BUNNY SHAPED CARD 2

and the Sentiment is from

EASTER SENTIMENTS.

The yellow hemp is from one a new company I love called Hemptique.

HUGS

 

 

 

GOING TO THE CHAPPEL AND WERE GOING TO GET MARRIED...........

Here is a fun card I made using the new set over at The Cutting Cafe.

I used the new WEDDING WORD SHAPED CARD......There are a few weddings coming up that I will need to make a few more of these.

I am still a bit rusty on coloring dark skin, but I think she is cute.

The tag also uses the BUTTERFLY TREAT BOX SET 

The set also comes with their outfits in a paper doll form, so I made a set of paper dolls with LOADS of clothes from paper scraps. 

 AND.........i boxed them up in the new LARGE GIFT BOX set.
