Today I’m sharing with you another project we made during our March Stamp Club gathering. You can see the first project here. This Easter Basket made with the Berry Basket Bigz Die is much easier than it might look.

First we assembled the basket using Crumb Cake card stock for the body and So Saffron CS for the handle and trim. We attached the handle with Tiny Brads, so it can be rotated out of the way to fill the basket. The Piercing Tool and Stampin’ Pierce Mat are perfect for creating the tiny holes.

We scored a 4″ x 12″ piece of Old Olive CS along the long side at 3″, 6″, and 9″. Then we cut along the long side with Fringe Scissors, cutting with the full length of the blades to make long blades of grass. We taped the two ends together to make a square, then inserted it into the basket. We curled and scrunched the blades of grass to hang over the basket’s edges.

We used a Gusseted Cellophane Bag to hold treats and tied it with a piece of Pacific Point Stitched Satin Ribbon. Since the bag is very tall, we tucked the top of it down behind the bag. You could also cut the top of the bag, but we opted to tuck it so the eggs would be more visible.

We cut eggs from the Pretty Petals Designer Series Paper Stack and from So Saffron CS using the Extra Large Oval Punch. We stamped the sentiment from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set in Pacific Point on the So Saffron egg. We glued the eggs to a piece of Old Olive CS cut to fit into the basket and tapered to create a stacked shape.

Note: this sample also has a couple of Pacific Point/Whisper White eggs (top and bottom right) cut from the Brights Designer Series Paper Stack.

We tucked the egg stack into the back of the basket, and voila, an Easter Basket! Wouldn’t your loved ones enjoy receiving their Easter goodies in this?
