A quick birthday treat

But, alas, not for me.

The bunny and eggs are a result of Anna complaining that she hadn’t brought any of her Easter eggs back from Christchurch, so was missing her customary stash of post-Easter chocolate. Just as well one of the local stores had over-ordered and were selling their Easter goodies half price. (Also just as well Anna doesn’t read this blog. It’s the thought that counts, right?)

I didn’t embroider the bag they’re in, but I did whip up the card from Still Dottie’s fabric stitched notecard tutorial. Not having any cute festive fabric on hand, I used a square of Basic Grey Hippie (from the Romani range) and stitched it with pink thread. I didn’t think about how to hide the thread ends until I’d finished, but they’re just pulled to the wrong side, tied in a knot and cut short. Unbelievably easy.

And because I think it’s sometimes nice to tell people that stuff’s handmade, the back is stamped with this little 1″ stamp from Catslife Press.
