PREP
Turn your green paper vertically, fold one half into two smaller strips, then cut them out.
Fold each strip in half horizontally, with the front half slightly lower, then cut a small strip of yellow paper.
Slightly fold your green strip vertically and make lots of grass blades on the top and bottom portions, then fold it horizontally again. Cut a few strips/blades from the yellow paper, too.
BACKGROUND
Turn your white paper vertically, fold it in half, and cut across the line.
Glue one folded strip of grass at the bottom of the white paper and a few yellow grass blades behind and in between the layers.
-Ruffle the grass blades a bit, and if necessary, glue the front layer to the back one to keep it closed.
Cut out a sun from the yellow paper and glue it to the top corner.
BUNNIES
Make two ears about 1 inch long with a pipe cleaner and twist the ears together.
With the long end, make a rounded side and a small loop for the bunny tail next to it, then twist the tail.
Make two more small loops near the tail, for the feet, and twist each one.
Curve the remaining part of the pipe cleaner to finish the body, then twist the end around the ears.
-Leave the ears up, one flopped over, or both. Repeat the steps with more colors.
ASSEMBLE & COLOR
Use a thin layer of Tacky Glue on the back side of the bunnies and press firmly down for a few seconds.
Color in the bodies of each bunny with matching pencils and then draw the eyes, nose, mouth, and whiskers.
Let everything dry fully for about 10 -15 minutes.
That’s it!
Happy crafting,
Amanda and Naomi
