About a week ago, I came across the cutest bunny bunting while looking around Etsy and knew I had to make my own. Here they are!
I searched the Silhouette site to see if I could find a bunny shape but I didn’t have any luck. Inspiration always seems to strike when you are least expecting it, however, and I found mine when I was making Connor’s lunch – a nice, big fat bunny right on the Annie’s shells and white cheddar macaroni box!
- A bunny template. I drew out mine and then traced and cut out the rest {You can download a copy of mine here}
- White cardstock {I used a pearlized white cardstock from Bazil}
- Coordinating scrapbook paper for the tails {mine is Basic Grey}
- Black ink
- Black pen
- Ribbon or twine
- Pop dots
- 3.5 inch scalloped circle punch
- Hole punch
- Cut out your bunnies and outline with black pen.
- Punch out the bunny tails alternating colors.
- For the tails, I wanted to ink the edges to add a little more dimension. I used this little ink dauber {from Close to My Heart} so the ink went on softer than directly inking from the pad.
- Using pop dots, add the tails to the bunting.
- Punch holes in the ears and string with twine or ribbon.
And there you have it!
Depending on how many bunnies you used, you could also add some letters to the tail to spell out Spring or Easter but I kind of liked mine plain. There’s nothing like a cute bunny butt!

HAD to hop on over here from Tip Junkie when I saw your bunny bunting–so cute! I’m not much of a paper crafter (actually not at all), but my 4yo son loves decorations that go along with the different seasons and holidays. So buntings are my new favorite go-to for decorating. And yours is lovely! I would be so appreciative if you would share your template with me. Thank you, thank you, thank you! 🙂
