A yellow Easter Basket! At our March Downline meeting, we made Easter treats for our local Ronald MacDonlad House. Poli designed this adorable basket that we filled with treats. The baskets are approximately 4" across the bottom and the handles are a 12" strip of paper to give you an idea of the size. We usually make between 35-40 treats for most of the major Holidays. When it comes to treats for the Ronald MacDonald House, we … [Read more...] about A Tisket, A Tasket…

On To Plan C…
I absolutely love it when my plans come together so easily and quickly. It’s just the greatest when you come up with an idea and then you start working on a project and it’s so easy to put together that it’s almost like magic. And then there’s weeks like this one, when everything in your life decides to happen this week. And then you find out that the product you wanted to use in your next make and take is actually on back-order for at least … [Read more...] about On To Plan C…
Bunny Box
Here comes Peter Cottontail, hopping down the bunny trail... Easter is on it's way! In case you haven't looked at a calendar recently, Easter is this coming Sunday! It's hard to believe it's already here. For Easter, I love making little treat holders. I try to make a variety that will hold slightly larger treats and some that hold smaller treats. Today, I'm playing around with the Tiny Treat boxes. One trick when making these is to wrap … [Read more...] about Bunny Box
More Easter Treats
Last night was our monthly Downline Meeting. I really look forward to these every month. I love getting together with my crafty friends. Our swap theme this month was Easter or Spring and I went with more Easter treats. This is a variation of the one I shared last week. You can see that here. For this version, I went all pink and it looks so pretty. I used the same technique as last time to color the main tag. I used my sponge brayer to add … [Read more...] about More Easter Treats

Bunnies and Baskets
I started working on a couple Easter projects last week using the Basket Bunch Bundle. I love that the coordinating die set cuts out just about every image in this stamp set. This is such a time-saver. No more fussy cutting all those little details to go in your basket. Today's project is using the dies to make a 3-D Easter basket. If you've seen the basket image in the catalog, you'll know how small these baskets are. This finished basket … [Read more...] about Bunnies and Baskets
One last Easter Treat
Just a quick post today. A couple weeks ago I shared an Easter treat bag that I'd come up with. You can see it here. Here is another version of this treat bag with a cute chickie stamp. So cute! He looks like he has a fuzzy belly! I love these adorable honeycombs. They come in white, blue, and pink. I colored the white ones yellow. Here are all the Easter treats I made for all of the place settings today. The little chickie is from … [Read more...] about One last Easter Treat

Today I'm sharing a quick and easy bunny tag that you can add to your Easter basket. This is the tag that I made. I know what you're thinking. You're wondering where I got that adorable bunny punch/die because you didn't see one in the Stampin Up Catalog. I gotta tell you, you've seen exactly what I used but you may not have added all the pieces together yet. Using these three items, you get a bunny punch!
