Hoppy Easter

This is the third project that I created for Crafter's Inspiration Issue 25, I was asked to create three off the page projects using the Easter Treats Digi collection.

I used papers and a sentiment from the Easter Treats collection from the free CD along with my Crafter's Companion Stitch Edge Oval and Rectangle nesting dies, if you are interested there are more detailed instructions in the magazine.

I would like to enter this plaque into the CD Sunday Plus Challenge 27 - Anything Goes as long as either a CD, USB or digital download - or any combination thereof – has been used in the making of your project.

Easter Surprise

This is another of the projects that I created for Issue 25 of Crafter's Inspiration Magazine, I was asked to create three off the page projects using the Easter Treats Digi collection.

I decided to create a simple exploding box to put some little Easter eggs in.  I cut the box from Crafter's Companion Stamping Card - this card is perfect for card bases and construction.  To decorate the box I used two of the papers and some of the toppers from the digi collection along with some red solid paper also printed from the CD.

I just popped some chocolate Easter eggs into a cellophane bag and secured it with a ribbon to complete my project.
