What You Will Need

  • Wood plaque size will depend on how many “peeps” grandma has
  • Cricut machine click here to see which I like best
  • Cricut vinyl in a variety of colors
  • Cut file for your Cricut click here to access
  • Craft paint
  • Paintbrush
  • Transfer tape

Instructions

  • Start by painting the wood plaque with the craft paint. Remember that the size of your plaque will depend on how many “peeps” you need.
  • Then, cut the pieces of your project from vinyl with your Cricut machine. Cut file linked below.*
  • Size the file to fit your wood piece then cut your pieces from any color vinyl that you wish.
  • Then, weed away the excess from all of your vinyl pieces.
  • Use transfer tape to add the faces as well as the names to each of the bunnies. This will allow you to pick up the entire thing for adding to your plaque later.
  • Then use a larger piece of transfer tape and pick up the words that run across the bottom. Then you will want to pick up the bunnies together.
  • Add everything in place on transfer tape.
  • Peel away the backing on each bunny. Now, you have one piece to transfer to the painted wood piece.
  • If your paint is now dry, you can add the vinyl. Press into place.
  • Then, peel back the transfer tape to reveal your design.

Notes

I have the cut file for you here and you can customize the names as well as add or take away some bunnies.
