See the tuft of hair on my bunny....my daughter Madison looked like this until she was 4. I thought her hair would never grow and now it's thick like a pony's mane.
In response to some questions I have gotten on this: The hinge is indeed a brad....I used a white pearl brad in the center of the two crocheted flowers. The egg is from Easter 2010. I did cut the zig zag portion in the middle of the egg by hand. The bunny is from Simply Charmed. If anyone uses Cricut Craft Room and would like this file, let me know and I will email it to you. The egg is 6.5 inches tall (measuring the largest scalloped piece). The bunny is 5 inches tall. I did not cover the legs of the brad in the back, but now that Tatiana has asked, that is a good idea, and I will cover the legs with a green leave shape that I can allow to stick out from behind the flower as well. The pink part of the egg was glued to the yellow scalloped egg before I cut the zig zag through the middle with scissors. Then I used small round foam dots to attach the bottom piece of cracked egg to the white egg shape that is the back of the card. This allows a small pocket just wide enough for the bunny to slip in and out of. If I were making this again, I think I'd make the back portion of the card patterned, so when you opened the egg, you saw something besides white. If you have any other questions, please ask. I may not be quick, but I will respond. Thanks for visiting me.



Wow..this flocked paper is so much fun! I love your adorable Easter egg card...too cute! And what a cute little surprise on the inside, how sweet! My youngest son also rocked a similar hair do until he was about a year and a half. Then he grew this thick, jet black mane of hair...must be something to starting out life with crazy hair!

This is the cutest card I ever saw, I also love the idea with the hinge. Tell me how did you cover the "legs" of the brad in the back? Great paper and I think Pk faces are just too cute, they make any project look fantastic! Bunny's hair is perfect, I should find Dana's pictures when she was 2-4, a dandelion, no less. Hugs, T.
