Sweet Easter Baskets; Quick & Easy

March 26, 2021

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

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.

May be an image of text that says 'Butterly Bijo OUT 156824 6" Designer Series Paper S கமO'

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.

Great sketch to create fast cards with Woven Textures

April 2, 2025

On last week's video I shared two more projects made with the Textured Notes bundle which is included in the entire Botanical Textures suite seen here.

Save

This lovely card features Pecan Pie with Early Espresso. I stamped directly onto the designer paper – a soft linen sheet included in the Woven Textures DSP seen here.

Save

I die-cut the three rectangles with the new Textured Notes dies which is included in the Textured Notes bundle seen here. I cannot stop using this bundle!!

This layout was inspired by this sketch.

Save

I love using sketches for my inspiration! Think of them as a starting point. Noticed I added a greeting layer & linen thread.

Save

Did you catch the texture on the diagonal Early Espresso strip? That's the new Mini Corrugated 3D embossing folder seen here. I tell you this suite is incredible! I love every single thing in it!

Below is the inside view. Like I said yesterday these leaf stamps are wonderful to play with. Easy, beautiful cards.

Here is the free project sheet for you. Click on the following link to print or download the directions: Download Woven Textures suite card

And here is the video below; it also includes how to make the Bendy card that I shared yesterday.
