Bunny Baby Large Gift Tag

The front panel on this oversize gift tag 

is intended to be printed and then cut out 

(activate Print & Cut tool to add Registr Marks to print page) 

to include the “celebrating arrival of your little” as first part 

of tag’s message. Offset tag base measures 

approx. 7.125” tall x 3.75” wide. 

Baby bunny is layered to define front legs, feet with toes cutouts 

and contrast liner, head, head overlay with ears, inner ears, 

face overlay with eye cutouts and contrast liner, 

muzzle with cheeks to "rouge", muzzle overlay and nose. 

Layer and assemble components on body base 

(measures approx. 3.5” tall x 2.17” wide). 

Below bunny, use welded words shape to complete 

the phrase with “some bunny” and 

optional separate “some” for color contrast. 

ASSEMBLY: 1. Identify and cut the shapes:

A Print & Cut tag front panel

B tag offset base (with extra layers to thicken, if desired)

C bunny body foundation

D legs   E chest fur  

F feet overlay with contrast toes/pad (2 ea.)

G head/ears overlay   H left & right inner ears

I head shape overlay   J face overlay with eye cutouts

K eye contrast show-thru

L muzzle overlay

M cheeks/muzzle base (with inked middle for muzzle detail)

N nose

O "some bunny" welded phrase   P "some" welded word

2. If using the Print & Cut words arch front tag panel,

review the process by searching silhouetteamerica.com

and clicking "Support" and following the "Silhouette 101"

path to search for "Print and Cut" tutorials.

Then Print & Cut the tag panel:

A) set up the 8.5x11" portrait printing/cutting page,

activate the "registration marks" tool, rotate/move

the tag shape onto the screen page within printable/cuttable

red guide marks.

B) send the job to your printer and print on medium

weight cardstock.

C) place the letter size printed sheet onto the cutting mat

in matching position to what was set up on screen.

D) adjust cut settings as needed, then send the job

to cutter; NOTE that the cutter will begin by "reading"

where the registration marks are, then will

complete the cut in the desired position, including

the printed words arch.

E) with cutting completed, eject the cutting mat and

remove the cut tag.

3. If using multiple tag base shapes for thick 

presentation tag, layer and glue together the cut layers,

taking care to align outer cut edges and ribbon punch

hole as precisely as possible.

NOTE: the sample tag uses color front and back

layers, with two craft colored interior layers.

4. Identify the small horizontal cut mark on the front tag

which will assist in positioning the bottom of bunny

assembly, then . . . 

. . . position and attach the front tag on top of

front tag base, with offset margin even all around

and ribbon hole opening edges aligned.

Place the tag assembly on a flat surface, then

place a heavy flat object on top to press

the glued-up stack until completely dry,

which may take several hours or overnight.

Pressing will help minimize warping or curling

of glued stack when using liquid adhesive.

5. Assemble the cut shapes to form the bunny body:

A) position and attach legs shape onto bottom of

body foundation, aligning feet outer edges,

and front paw lower edges, with shapes aligned

at center;

B) layer feet overlays onto show-thru toes/pads bases,

and attach;

C) position and attach chest fur centered at top of legs;

D) position layered feet over top of legs overlay

where shape edges align and attach;

6. Assemble the head shapes: 

NOTE that the cheeks/muzzle shape has cheek

"rouging" ink and center darker ink to emphasize

feature details.

A) layer head overlay onto head/ears base

and attach;

B) layer muzzle overlay onto cheeks/muzzle base

and attach;

C) position eye contrast strip behind face,

and attach in place;

D) layer muzzle assembly, centered onto lower portion

of face with lower edges aligned;

E) position and attach nose at center top of muzzle;

F) position and attach face/muzzle assembly

onto lower edge of head assembly;

7. Complete final bunny assembly:

A) position head assembly onto body base

and attach in place;

B) position and attach the inner ears in

the recess created by layers.

Here is the completed bunny assembly.

8. If using the two-color words variation,

position and attach the "some" over 

the combo word shape.

9. Locate the guide mark cut, then . . .

. . . position (legs edge centered) at the guide mark.

Position and attach the welded words shape

below bunny.

As a final detail, consider adding a tiny dot of

white or cream acrylic paint at upper portion

of pupils as shown in this image.
