Super Easy Easter Bunny Badge Tutorial

With easter holidays almost upon us i have been working on some little Easter gifts for Mister's school classmates and teacher. We all know how much chocolate kids get at Easter, so i wanted to do something 'non-chocolatey'. Easter bunny badges it is!

So here is a super easy tutorial for Easter Bunny badges - great for cute and inexpensive gifts or a great Easter activity to keep the kids occupied over the holidays...


So start with these materials:

• Patterned cardstock of your choice
  
• Plain cardstock
• Craft glue
• Brooch backings (cheap from spotlight)
• A packet of small pom poms (i got mine from the cheap shop)
• Bunny template (this one i got from an old BHG magazine issue)
  

Print out the template to the desired size, trace on to the back of the patterned paper and cardstock and cut out so you have two identical bunnies.

Then take the plain bunny (this is for the back of the badge), lay out the brooch backing and mark where you want the holes to be.



punch out the holes where you marked them




this is what you should have now - two bunnies, one patterned and one plain with holes for the brooch backing to go through.


now take to patterned bunny and glue a pom pom to the bottom of the bunny (tail)



with the plain bunny, push through each end of the brooch backing and clip it up.


Now just take the back piece and cover the back side of it with glue


Glue it to the back side of the patterned piece and let it dry.
You then have a easter bunny badge!


You then just need to find a willing model to show it off.....


times by 25 and you have cute easter gifts for the kids or bust out the glitter and felt and let the kids decorate their own!

My Creative Space.....

i can't even tell you how long it has been since i cracked out the guillotine and filled the studio with lots of yummy colourful paper scraps - way to long. With card stocks dwindling im trying to do a few nights a week in the studio cranking out some new cards. Trying to stock up before i get too pregnant to want to move (only 14 weeks to go people!). Already got the serious baby belly thing going on - the muscles aren't quite as strong by number 3! And still driving the hubby nuts by asking him to move half the furniture in the house around for me..... hehe


So anyway, in my space today im playing with some lovely girlie prints like these....

My Creative Space.....

in my creative space this week is more crafts for our school fete being held in October. My sew jo continues to evade me (my poor sewing machine is looking a little forlorn in the corner :(

so this week its paper crafting. My paper scraps drawer is OVERFLOWING so i though i might raid it and see what i could come up with to use some up ....

i always get these magnetic list makers as promo materials from our local real estate and the other day i was looking it and thought 'why not make one that is actually nice to look at?", they are handy for shopping lists, messages,notes, anything really. So this is what i came up with



They are super simple and quick to make with just basic supplies...






i was thinking of putting up a tutorial for these - would anyone be interested??
