Did you make tangrams as a kid? It was so fun to make a dog, horse, or cat from a few simple geometric shapes. Inspired by this childhood puzzle, I created an easy Easter card featuring a perky-eared bunny. I couldn’t resist adding a little tail too, though it’s a bit of a creative departure from the traditional tangram shapes 🙂
The card is simple enough to do by hand, though be careful as the borders between shapes are rather narrow. If you have a Cricut or Silhuoette you’ll have a slightly easier time.
Enjoy!
