Have you met our ancestor, Peter?

His silhouette hangs in our house to welcome spring.

Look at that regal profile.

Make this cute Easter craft - a bunny silhouette!  kellyelko.com

Don’t have a long lost relative named Peter – just make your own and pretend.

DIY Bunny Silhouette

1) Draw bunny on a heavy piece of card stock (feel free to print out and trace my Peter Cottontail)

2) Cut out card stock bunny and trace onto a colorful piece of Martha Stewart Crafts Scrapbook Paper

3) Use Martha Stewart Circle Edge Punch to create a 12″ circle on a colorful piece of paper

Martha Stewart Crafts Circle Edge Paper Punch - this thing is so cool! kellyelko.com

4) Create a 9″ circle with a white piece of paper

5) Layer the bunny and circles onto a piece of scrapbook paper with a glue stick

6) Frame and welcome the newest member of your family, Peter Cottontail, into your family

    I LOVE this project . How clever! I also love Peter Cottontail. I actually had a stuffed Rabbit of Peter and his mother, and read those books all the time, then read Beatrix Potter to my kids until they wouldn’t listen anymore. Thanks for the nostalgia, love the updated look for Peter!

    What size is your frame and do you have a copy of the rabbit template?

    Thanks

      the frame is a 12″ x 12″ and I drew the bunny so I don’t have a template. Try printing the picture out and resizing on a copier.
