Easter basket card


There's a new challenge up at the ABC DT Challenge blog and the challenge this month is EASTER CARD.  I made this Easter basket using some Basic Grey Kioshi pattern paper and my Oval Nestabilities.

The bottom portion of the basket was made by die cutting the largest oval and cutting it not quite in half.  I then layerd 1/4" strips on the basket bottom and sponged with white ink.  The basket handle was made by nesting the largest and 2nd largest oval and cutting out a frame and adhering it to the back of the basket.  The eggs were made using the smallest oval in the set. The butterfly is a Martha Stewart punch and the grass was cut with my Cricut.

  3. Very cute! We took the girl to see Hop yesterday. I'm looking forward to Easter that's for sure. I'm hoping to have the new baby by then so we can get some too cute pictures with bunnies or the Easter Bunny. :)
