Berry Basket Card

This month's Big Shot Class featured the Berry Basket Die.  I wanted to show them something besides making a basket.  I saw this card layout on Pinterest and my sister, Tina Rappe, did one like it at class last week.  This was exactly what I was looking for.  I tweaked it just a bit to make it my own.  I am happy with the final result.
Flower Basket CardThe flowers are from Petal Potpourri.  The Bloom tag is from For Peep's Sake — told you I love that stamp set.  I added a Subtle Candy Dot to the center of the So Saffron flower, an Itty Bitty Accent Epoxy Sticker to the center of the Crisp Cantaloupe flower and a pom pom from the Pom Pom Trim to the center of the Coastal Cabana flower.  Thanks Pinterest and Tina for the inspiration.

Easter Treat Box

I love to make 3D paper craft projects, especially if it's a treat holder.  This cute box was designed by fellow demonstrator Connie Stewart.  I fell in love with in when I found it on Pinterest.  I tweaked it just a bit and here is the final project.
Happy Easter Treat Box
The inside holds three mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cups — sorry the picture doesn't show the candy — I think my hubby ate them.

So adorable, the ladies at class loved this and wanted the dimensions so I thought I would share them with everyone, it really is quite easy to make.

The box base is Whisper White cardstock — 3" x 5 1/2" — score all 4 sides at 3/4".The box insert is Whisper White cardstock — 4" x 5 1/4" — score with the 5 1/4" side at the top of your Simply Scored Tool and score at 1 1/2", 2 1/4", 3 3/4", 4 1/2"

The box top is Daffodil Delight cardstock — 3 1/2" x 6 –  score all 4 sides at 1".
I used the Scallop Border Punch to punch all four sides of the lid to give the box a prettier look.

The chicks and Happy, Hoppy Easter stamps are from the For Peep's Sake stamp set.  This set is great for all your Easter projects — go to my online store and order it today, you'll have it next week, just in time to whip out a few projects.

Fry Box Easter Basket

Easter is right around the corner — even if we did get 6"+ of snow yesterday.  Someone posted I hope the Easter Bunny has snowshoes — hopefully he won't need them as the snow should all melt right away.  However the Easter Bunny arrives he'll love bringing this fun basket filled with little treats.
Happy Spring French Fry BoxThis cute little basket was made using the French Fry Box Die.  With just a few small adjustments you have a whole new look.  I stamped the chicks from For Peep's Sake using VersaMark ink and White Embossing Powder.  I used From the Garden stamp set to stamp the "garden pick" and added the Happy Spring words, then I cut it out using the Handpicked Framelits — I love when things coordinate so well, it makes our lives so much easier.

Just that quick our little basket is ready to fill with jelly beans or my favorites those little Cadbury chocolate eggs — not the gooey egg but the crunchy shell chocolate eggs, yum, yum.
