Hi everyone, sharing the little Easter Egg bag project from my February card class.
When I started out designing this I realised that I did not have any current Easter stamps, Yikes! So I had to adapt to what I had in my stash. I have used the bunny from the Playing in the Rain stamp set, stamped with Black Memento ink and coloured using Light and Dark Calypso Coral, Dark Petal Pink and Light and Dark Crumb Cake Stampin' Blends.
The Designer Series Paper is from the "A Little Latte" 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper which is available as an Online Exclusive.
The little tag was created using the Tailor Made Tags dies and the 'Happy Easter' is from Teeny Tiny Sentiments stamp set that has been retired for quite sometime (told you I had to adapt to use what I had, lol). This stamp set was the first stamp set that I purchased from Stampin' Up! and I still use it in my card making to this day.
To make this Easter Egg basket you will need:
Measurements
Lemon Lolly cardstock 2 3/4" x 2"
Lemon Lolly cardstock 2 1/2" x 6"
Lemon Lolly cardstock 1/2" x 5" (this is for the handle)
Designer Series Paper 1 3/4" x 6"
Technique
Score the 2 1/4" x 2" piece of Lemon Lolly cardstock on all sides at 1/2" Snip on the lines as detailed in the diagram below
Fold and burnish all the score lines. Fold the corners in place to form the bag base (it will be a rectangle box like base) and adhere in place.
Take the 2 1/2" x 6" piece of Lemon Lolly cardstock and die cut the very top using the Zig Zag die from the Basic Border Dies.
Adhere the piece of Designer Series Paper to the Lemon Lolly cardstock die cut piece, leaving a small 1/8" gap at the bottom. I did use my one folder to slightly curl this piece and the handle as it makes it easier to form them into place.
Put Tear and Tape or Stampin' Seal+ on the reverse side of the Designer Series Paper on the bottom edge and one side edge. Adhere to the bag base, starting in the middle of one of the long edges. If you start on the corner it will keep popping open which you do not want. Adhere the handle in place.
Add you coloured and die cut Bunny and the tag to finish. Oh do not forget the Easter Eggs. This little bag holds 4 small sold eggs and 2 slightly larger eggs which have the carmel or turkish delight filling.
I hope you enjoyed this little Easter project.
