Bunny Hugs Easter Basket



I made this Easter basket using a fry-box pattern I found on Splitcoaststampers, by rapples.

The colours I have used are Regal Rose and Tempting Turquoise. I have stamped Big Blooms from the Summer Mini catalogue on the basket using Regal Rose Classic Ink. The back edge of the basket has been scalloped using the Corner Rounder punch. I have punched circles of Rose Red cardstock using the 1/4 inch circle punch, and adhered these along the inside front and side edges of the basket.

The handle is a strip of Rose Red cardstock that has scalloped edges, and is affixed on either end using Rose Red brads. I have punched holes along the handle using the 1/8 inch circle punch and threaded Turquoise Grosgrain ribbon through them. There is also Turquoise ribbon wrapped around the basket.

The bunny from Bunny Hugs has been stamped in Black Stazon ink on Watercolour paper and coloured in using an Aquapainter and Watercolour Wonder Crayons. The image has been punched out using the 1 and 1/4 inch circle punch, affixed to a circular Aluminium Edge Tag and stuck to the front of the basket using a Pop-Up Glue Dot.
