Check out this cute little Easter basket I made to put some goodies in for friends this Sunday. Isn’t the little bunny image too stinking cute?
I think it turned out nicely and it will hold quite a bit. I’ve got some cute little note pads and pens to place inside along with a little bit of chocolate.
I used the Watercolor Wonder Designer Series Paper to create the little “basket” along with the Eggstra Spectacular Stamp Set. I used my Blender Pen and colored the bunny with Smoky Slate and a little Calypso Coral to highlight the dotted lines. (Blender Pens (102845) and your Classic Ink Pads are a quick and easy way to add color to any image.)
I wanted a little more color so I sponged the outside of the circle with Daffodil Delight. Popped it up with Stampin’ Dimensionals and then added it to my scallop circle that I had already paper-pierced.
I didn’t have the color ribbon on hand that I originally wanted to use, so instead I added color to the ribbon that I had, the 7/8″ Cotton Ribbon. I think it turned out rather cool using the coloring technique that I used, Faux Dipped Die.
