Good Morning, Stampers!

The project I have to share with you today is a sweet little Easter basket I created using little paper treat cups. I found them in the cake decorating section of the craft store. They make great little treats or would be fun at each place setting for Easter dinner..

I started by cutting a piece of Wild Wasabi cardstock 1/2" x 8 1/2" long.. I snipped the paper to form the blades of grass and adhered it to the cup using hot glue.

Next, I punched a strip of 8 1/2" Very Vanilla using the Lace Ribbon Border punch (122362 $19.95) for the handle. Adhere to the basket using hot glue.

Cut a piece of So Saffron cardstock using the Framelits Labels Collection (125598 $26.95). Run the piece thru the Big Shot using the Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder (117335 $7.95).

Stamp an image from the Everybunny stamp set (w122705 $27.95 - c122707 $19.95) onto Very Vanilla cardstock using Early Espresso ink. Color as desired and adhere to the framelit using dimensionals. Adhere to the basket with hot glue.

Punch flowers using the Boho Blossoms punch (119858 $16.95) and the Itty Bitty Shapes punch set (118309 $16.95). (I used So Saffron, Pretty in Pink, Wysteria Wonder & Baja Breeze) Finally, add a Basic Pearl (119247 $4.95) to the center of each flower.
Here, you can see I whipped out a few for my Stamp Club swap this month!
Happy Stampin'!
