Sweet Easter Baskets; Quick & Easy

Need a quick project for Easter?  Or May Day?  Or to make something fun with a child?  This is it!

Save

I made these on a recent FB Live and it couldn't be easier!  

Start out with a square of paper.  I chose to use White card stock for the one above since I wanted to stamp my own background with the Circle Celebration stamp set.  I chose to use Magenta Madness, Old Olive, Daffodil Delight and Balmy Blue.  

I used a 5 1/2" square of White CS for it so I could get two baskets from one sheet of 8 1/2" X 11" paper.  Score it at 1 3/4" on all sides.  Cut up two sides and fold them up to form the basket.  Add a strip of CS for a handle and something fun on the side.  Here I used the Oval Occasions stamp set.

For the butterfly basket on the right I used a 6 X 6" square of Butterfly Bijou designer paper.  Unfortunately this paper is sold out now.  They hoped to have enough through May but we all loved it so much they ran out!  I'm so sorry about that.  

Save

The 6" basket is just slightly larger than the 5 1/2" basket; both work wonderfully for holding treats! 

You can see the video here.  It's a FB live replay; scroll towards the end to see the basket project.

  This card starts out with a long card base measuring 9 1/2" X 4 1/4". Score at 1" & 2" from each end. See the template below for the upper white & DSP layers. 

  I chose to use the new 2024-26 In Color designer paper for my cards.  This one features the Peach Pie.

  Now you'll cut the front 'white' and designer paper layers using the templates below.  Adhere the layers together and add to the side flaps of the card base.  Watch the video here or below to see how it's done.
