He Is Risen!

We all know it's not about the bunny but I'm reposting this photo from last year to wish you a Happy Easter.

Note that there is aan instruction sheet for this basket under the instruction sheet tab of my blog.  It's called Slatted Basket.

Enjoy!!

I based this basket on one made by Betty Traciak.

I altered her instructions (available on YouTube) by making a smaller version that can be made using just one sheet of DSP…it still fits quite a lot.  

Oops…how did those bunnies get out?!

Version #3 made with the FREE Wildflower Gardens DSP only available through the end of the month.

Yet another version of projects for my upcoming envelope punchboard class.  This time I used the SAB Wildflower Fields DSP.  Note that the cup can be made into various sizes…

I wanted to offer a second Easter card choice this month…It's hard to see in the photo but I created clouds behind the lamb by sponging soft sky ink over a piece of carstock punched with the scalloped circle punch.  It helps to mask the lamb first but not necessary.

Wanted to feature SAB items this month…I used the Wildflower Fields DSP.

Pulled out the circle card thinlits for this Easter Card…

Easter Lamb stamp; Pink Pirouette and Old Olive cardstocks and inks; English Garden DSP; Washi punch.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the Botanical Builder Framelits!!  I tweaked a card design by Carol L for this card…

Botanical Blooms and Teeny Tiny Greetings stamp sets; Calypso Coral and Garden Green cardstocks and inkpads; Botanical Gardens vellum (SAB); Rhinestone basic jewels.

Note how I folded the vellum over the edge of the cardstock and adhered at the back so you don't see adhesive marks on the front of the card.

Using the awesome new Rose Garden Thinlits for the first time…

Rose Wonder stamp set; Perfectly Artistic DSP (SAB): Softly Falling TIEF; Rhinestone basic jewels.
