Scallop Envelope Easter Basket

Today I have a basket that could be used for any occasion.  My Easter basket was made using the Bigz Scallop Envelope die.  Yes, the die is meant to be used as an envelope but when you attach four of them together, you get this cute little basket!!  You can see the actual die below.  I cut out four of them and then trimmed off one of the flaps.  Then I laid them side by side and attached them together with Sticky Strip!  So easy! I also used Sticky Strip on each of the scalloped flaps.  I couldn't decide whether to leave them up or adhere them but ended up with them flat.

If you have this die, why don't you pull it out and give it a try?  Or, you can purchase one at my online store by simply clicking HERE.

Thank you for stopping by!

A Spring Sampler

I recently purchased a new computer and am trying to learn a new editing software program.  My lights that I usually use to take pictures of my cards both stopped working a few months ago so I purchased new lights that I am just not happy with.   I am not happy with the way my cards look when photographed.  I ordered some new bulbs for my old lights and we will see if that takes care of the problem.  

That being said, this card is so MUCH cuter in person.  We made it at my Stamp Club last week and they all seemed to really like it!!  I have to give credit to Mary Brown.  She had a cute a tutorial that I followed and it was very easy to make this card.  I am stuck on using the Pool Party and Wisteria Wonder combo.  It is such a soft combination.

I used two stamp sets for my flowers, flower pot and butterfly.  The butterfly came from A Fitting Occasion in the Annual catalog and the other cuties came from Spring Sampler in the Spring catalog.  The card dimensions are 4 1/4 x 4 1/4 which is a different size but will still fit in our envelopes!  The openings were made using my 1 1/4 inch Scallop punch. My sentiment is a stamp set that you can get FREE with a $50 order or you could get the cute punch (or both with a $100 order) !!  PLUS, for every   $50 you purchase  at my Online Store, your name will go on my 50/50 board and you will have a chance to win $50 in Stampin' Up! products!!

Have a wonderful day!!

Today I have a sneak peek for you from the Spring Catalog!  My little bird is from the set Spring Sampler. There are 24 stamps in the set and they are ALL so cute!!  My paper is from Print Poetry which is a new Designer Series paper pack.  Each sheet is  4 1/2" by 6 1/2" and there are 48 pages of double sided paper!  I punched my bird out with the 1 1/4" Scallop circle punch.  This punch was in Holiday catalog  but will still be available after tomorrow!!  I'm so glad because the Scallop circle punches are my favorites!
