Spring Easter Automata 3D SVG File
$12.00
Make this delightful Spring scene complete with hopping and spinning bunnies! You can see them in action in the assembly video below! This automata mechanism project is made almost completely out of paper. It would make a really fun and educational STEM project to complete with the kids. Beautiful to display in your home or in a child’s room. There are so many possibilities to customize this 3D SVG project file. Add embellishments, decorative papers, ribbons etc to suit your home decor or theme. You could easily add LED fairy lights powered with a coin battery and transform this in to a gorgeous night light too!
The 3D SVG & Print and Cut project includes all of the SVG and PDF files for recreating this lovely Spring scene, as well as a comprehensive 1 hour + assembly video. In the video, you will learn how to create a paper cherry blossom tree, tulips and rabbits. I thoroughly detail how to assemble the paper mechanisms, the base and egg dome. All of the instruction you need to make crafting a breeze!

Supplies
12” X 12” Electronic Cutting Machine (Silhouette Cameo, Cricut Explore/Air/One,Cricut Explore Air Two, Cricut Maker, Brother Scan NCut and Sizzix Eclips2)
Color Printer for printing PDF files
Silhouette Designer Edition or Cutting Software that accepts SVG & PDF files
Newer Cutting Blade (blade should be sharp for cutting of intricate design details)
12” x 12” Cutting Mat (medium sticky)-mat should be sticky enough to hold paper in place but not overly sticky that it rips fine detail pieces upon removal.
2 Sheets of 8.5” x 11” 110 lb Dark Green Cardstock (choose a natural green color)
**12 Sheets of 8.5” x 11” 110 lb White Cardstock.** Can use 110 Lb Cardstock for Rabbit Print & Cut files-you would then need 3 more sheets. If you plan on embossing for decorative panels then you will need 1 more sheet.
2 Sheets of 8.5 X 11” 65lb Cardstock for Print & Cut files-Blossoms. Could use 65 lb Matte Photo Paper for vivid colors. I did not use Photo paper but used regular 110 lb cardstock for the rabbits and regular 65 lb cardstock for the blossoms (to not weigh down tree branches)
1 Sheet of 8.5” x 11” 65 lb to 110 lb Decorative Cardstock (for base veneer). I used 110 lb white cardstock embossed with the Sissix Big Shot with the Darice Damask Embossing Folder.
1 Sheet of 8.5” X 11” 65 lb-80lb Pink Cardstock (for tulips).
1 Sheet of 8.5” X 11” 65 lb-80 lb Mauve Cardstock (for tulips)

Weldbond Glue-OPTIONAL (for gluing acetate panels to egg dome). This glue dries clear & has a longer curing time which allows for repositioning of panels.
