Spring Easter Basket - Stampin' Up!® Easter Basket

 After a few warm days here in central Virginia some of my spring bulbs are flowering and the rest are on their way!  It's definitely time to think about spring cards and get ready for all that pastel goodness!  My stampers made this card last week at class and they got a good taste of spring with the Easter Basket bundle!

  This design starts with a Balmy Blue card base, then a piece of Easter Joy Specialty DSP.  This paper is very sturdy with fun metallic accents in cheerful spring colors.  

  The basket is cut out of Crumb Cake and a bit of Shy Shamrock grass is added to the inside.  Next comes filling the basket with all the adorable images in the Easter Basket stamp set.  All of the images are stamped in Basic Gray and then colored in with Blends.  It was fun to mix and match colors so each egg looks a bit different.  After the images are die cut they are added to the basket with the little chick being popped on dimensionals.

  The bunny and a second chick are stamped, colored, die cut and then added to outside the basket which fills in the layout. 

  The sentiment is stamped in Balmy Blue and adhered and a Balmy Blue gingham bow is the final touch.

  Thanks for looking!  Did you stamp today?

All of the supplies used to make this card can be purchased in my ONLINE STORE.
