Fun little Easter Baskets

Hi everyone, sharing a fun little Easter Basket.




The Designer Series Paper is from the Best Dressed 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper pack.  The little flowers were made using the Small Bloom Punch and the Leaf Punch with some Rhinestones added for the flower centres.

You can get the Small Bloom Punch as part of the Sale-A-Bration promotion if you spend $180 AUD.  

The 'Happy Easter' is from the A Wish for Everything stamp set.

To make these little baskets you will need:

Measurements

5 ¼” x 5 ¼” cardstock for basket
¾” x 5 ¼” cardstock for handle
½” x 5 ¼” Designer Series Paper for handle
4 pieces 1 ½” x 1 ½” Designer Series Paper for basket
Cardstock scraps for the flowers and leaves
Whisper White cardstock for the sentiment circle
Mossy Meadow cardstock for the scallop circle
Tear and Tape

Technique

1.       Score the 5 ¼” x 5 ¼” piece of cardstock at 1 ¾” all four         sides.

2.       Snip on the score lines as per diagram below



3.       Adhere the Designer Series Paper to the four corner squares.



4.      Fold the centre panel up and adhere the two corner squares on the diagonal to the centre panel so that the top corner of the squares meet.  They will overlap each other.  Do this for both sides.  The picture below shows what it should look like.


5.       Adhere the Designer Series Paper piece for the handle to the cardstock piece and then curl this handle slightly using the bone folder.


6.       Adhere the handle in place, the handle should sit on top of the inside panel, this is about 1cm from the top of the basket.  See picture below that shows the position.
