Easter Layout with Martha Stewart Seasonal Art For Everyday Cricut

Happy Saturday.  Today is my regular monthly Saturday post at Everyday Cricut - the fabulous Cricut blog run by Melanie and Joy.  If you have not already been by EC you should hop on over there for all of the details on how to make this fun two page layout using only one cartridge, after you finish here of course. 

I am sharing the Cricut Design Studio cut file for this layout.  The cut file is available in the left column in the "Downloadable Cut Files" section.  The title of this cut file is Easter Layout MS Seasonal Art. Just think, in the next couple of months I will be able to share Cricut Craft Room cut file, and the Craft Room will be free to everyone!

Easter Silhouette Card

Have I told you that I love the Martha Stewart Seasonal Art Cake Cartridge?  I really, really like this cartridge a lot, though I have not used it once for cake making!!  It has a lovely font and art work for every major holiday. 

Purple is not a color I work with often - and there is a reason.   Short story, I once had to do an entire scrapbook in a purple palette.  It wore me out on purple for quite a while.  :D

My daughter told me told me that the bunnies are creepy!  What?  Creep?  No way.  But yes, apparently the clothing on the bunnies that makes them creepy.  And of course my husband agreed with her, only he claims the creepy parts are the eyes.  Everyone's a critic!!  But okay, I probably should not have drawn in eyes....... Or the ears......?

My favorite part of the card is the background paper.  I like all of those Easter eggs.  In fact, I liked them so well that I cut out six of them to use the in the silhouette basket and the bunnies'  hands. 

The flower embellishement was created by layering two large white flowers with two lavender flowers and topping them with a crocheted flower and button. 

I stamped the inside of the card with a stamp I picked up at Hobby Lobby last year. 

This probably is not my best card every - I think it is curse of the purple.  After that purple scrapbook, purple and I just do not work well together!!
