Today’s project was inspired by a project I made last year at a Paper Angels Team Day. It is a sweet and simple Easter basket.
The basket is made using a 7 1/2″ x 7 1/2″ piece of Lost Lagoon card.
It was scored at 2 1/2″ along both sides. Along the top and bottomsides, the card was cut 2 1/2″ in, leaving the centre panel uncut.
Then I cut six 2 3/8″ x 2 3/8″ Basic White squares. They were then embossed using the Cane Weave 3D Embossing Folder.
These embossed pieces were attached to the three panels on each side of the base.
I used Tombow Multipurpose Glue to overlap and adhere the top and bottom panels to create these angeled basket sides.
Before securing the central Lost Lagoon panel, I created the handle. I used a 3/4″ length of Lost Lagoon card and a 5/8″ strip of Basic White card.
The white card was also embossed, in two steps. Then the embossed strip was attached to the Lost Lagoon base piece.
I adhered the handle inside the basket and then the remaining Lost Lagoon panels were glued over the top of the handle ends to secure them.
The basked was finished with soem die cut and assembled eggs and a stamped and die cut Easter greeting.
Finally, I added some Lost LAgoon Tinsel Gems 3 Pack embellishments.
Last, but not least, I added some Easter eggs to the backet.

Tomorrow I will be using a different stamp set for the last of my Easter cards.
Until then, happy stamping.
