Happy Easter Berry Basket

StampinUp Easter Berry basket designed by demo Beth McCullough. Please see more card and gift ideas at www.StampingMom.com #StampingMom

I love the Stampin’ Up! Berry Basket Die in the 2015 Occasions Catalog.  Here’s my first Easter Basket.  I made half the basket in Bermuda Bay cardstock and the other half using the Backgrounds DSP Brights Collection.  The sides of the basket are the same polka dots as the handle.  I didn’t use all DSP for the basket because the card stock is a heavier weight and I found using half cardstock and half DSP makes the basket both cute and sturdy.  I also have found so many uses for the Butterflies Thinlits Dies.  It’s no wonder Stampin’ Up! has sold out of these.  They are supposed to get more in stock soon.  The “happy easter” is stamped on a garden pick using the Handpicked Framelits Dies.  Hope you have a wonderful Easter!

I love this Happy Easter Bunny!  I actually had made this card using Blendabilities before I knew they had been discontinued.  I remade the card using Stampin’ Write Markers.  It’s great that we have so many choices to color our cards.  I saw the Calypso Coral Pompom Trim for the tail on Pinterest.  It seems like the Pompom Trim was designed to be this bunny’s tail.

The largest Oval Framelit is a scallop oval.  It is the perfect size to look like an Easter Egg, yet fit inside a standard size envelope.  When cutting this card, I left the very top out of the Framelit to keep the pieces connected as a card.  I think the scallop oval Framelit will be useful for making fun cards for any occasion.

The Best Year Ever DSP was used along with the Envelope Liner Framelit to coordinate with the card.
