Cricut Cartridge Used: Easter 2010
Here is a view of the entire layout. 



cricut bunny hop closeup-500
Here is a close up of the flowers, bunnies and grass.



This layout is what I call a “One Hit Wonder” …lol. That means I used only one cartridge for all the die cuts.

I did use my Gypsy to weld the grass together but if you don’t have the “G” you can always cut the grass out and just adhere them right next to each other.

The cartridge I used was the Easter 2010 cartridge. The scalloped CIRCLE, the flowers, the bunnies and the grass all came from that cartridge. The YELLOW background paper was punched with a Martha Stewart Punch Around Set. Lastly I added just a touch of RIBBON to the top and a dash of GLITTER to the flowers. Pretty simple layout.


Thanks for stopping by and be sure to head over to the other blogs and enter the challenge!




Have a wonderfully crafty day,

Melin

This layout is what I call a One Hit Wonder…lol! It was made using my “E” and one cricut cartridge…the 3 Birds on Parade Cartridge. This is also what I call…STRAIGHT CRICUT…no Gypsy or Design Studio either. All the cuts to came from the 3 Birds cartridge…ALL of it :-)
