Hi there!  It's Wendy Sue here with you today and I am so excited to share some of the new "Easter Express" cut file projects I created! I started with the carrot file and created this fun banner:

It was really fun and easy - I just sized the two carrot shapes so I could fit four across a 12x12 paper.  Speaking of paper, I used petite prints for both the carrots and leaves - I love the subtle pattern on these!

After I cut the shapes, I layered them together.

And added machine stitching (with green thread) to each one.  

Each one is stitched differently, just for interest.

After adding the stitching, I punched two holes in the top of each carrot.

And then I strung doodle twine through each one to create the garland.

Finally, I added white "chippers!" to each carrot to spell out "Hoppy Easter."  Oh, except for one carrot - there you'll find the cute bunny doodle-pop to separate the words!

And now it's hanging above my fireplace, wishing everyone who enters our home a "Hoppy Easter!"

Now, suppose instead of hanging this cute banner, I wanted to give it away as a gift.  Here's how I'd do it:

Yep, I'd use that cute Mr. Bunny cut file to embellish a gift bag!

I wanted to personalize the bag, so I cut out another carrot, with the name spelled out on the top layer!

Don't forget to decorate the back!

I'd love to see what YOU make with the Easter Express cut files!  Please link up your projects in the comments below!
