Yes, finally I am posting after 3.5 weeks!
Well, the new baby bunnies have been keeping me busy plus on top of that we had a few more arrivals since my last post!
Two days later we had another litter of 3, then about a week later we had another rabbit who gave birth to 5! Unfortunately for some reason they all died, not sure if they were still born or died of cold not long after birth.
The kids and I really can't believe just how quickly they grow. They have gone from this:
to this in 3 weeks!!
Here are some pics of Mollie's little ones, they are 2 days older. We have two caramel coloured ones, one quite a bit bigger than the other, love this colouring though:
one little black one:
and we had two Molly (Mum) look a likes but one died a couple of days after the birth (must have been the smallest)
I've also had a busy weekend sorting out classes for Senz and the shop. I also started making a couple of lap quilts for Emily & Briana, should have the tops sewn up in no time!
Last weekend I stayed the night with the girls at the shop and we scrapped for the weekend. Here are a couple of layouts that I achieved:
The first is using the Prima Stitched Mulberry's and I really wanted to use the birdcage that I had cut out on my Cricut Machine. Just loving this machine at the moment!
This next one is completely different as I felt like doing a cutsy page. We just got a whole lot of new chipboard in from 2Crafty so I used the scalloped frame and Reed/Butterfly. Coloured the butterfly with Souffle pens.
Yesterday I was very excited because I completed a layout for a class and made some really cool paper flowers on my Cricut for it. Anyhow afterwards I had an idea to make one using the new Tim Holtz grunge paper (we have it at the shop and holding it for Senz but could be persuaded to sell it on request :)
I cut out all the flower parts on the Cricut Machine (using Multi-cut), then stamped the petals with a music background stamp and sprayed two colours of glimmer mist on them to colour. Layered the petals together, scrunched them a bit then wow! Just love the result, here is a close up:
GRUNGE PAPER FLOWER
Here is the whole page, not that happy with it really, I put alcohol inks over the lettering but didn't really come out the colour I wanted. I also cut out the apron lace circle on the Cricut Machine. I also glimmer misted the chipboard birds from Collections.
WOW I cannot believe how quickly those bunnies have grown... man they are sooo cute, the grunge paper looks really cool and the circle border came out really well, love the flower - very very cool
