Happy Easter!

 
We are back from Disney and my vacation is just about over!  Florida was fabulous again this year.  We did have one day of rain and just one day of colder than expected weather but the rest of the week was perfect weather!  We can't complain at all.   I have been working in my craft room for a couple of days now and just love working on baskets for Easter.  The above photo is a Bunny Easter box without candy added.  I was inspired by Linda Parker's tutorial that I found on Pinterest.  Check out her tutorial here-
 
The picture below shows the Bunny with candy in the box.  It holds just enough goodies for our small Grandson!!


The Easter baskets I made below are a Picnic Hamper styled Easter basket.  I love making these cuties.  The box part of the basket is the same idea as the Bunny Basket above.  They are made using the Envelope Punch board.  The hamper style basket it a little bigger.   Again, Linda Parker does a fabulous tutorial showing you  how to make these-

I did decorate mine a little differently from Linda's since I wanted to add more 3D flowers to my baskets.   But however you decorate them- they are fun to make.  They hold a good amount of yummies too.

 
Here are a few close ups of the baskets. I played around with different colors and different flowers.  Fun, Fun!!
 
 
 
 

 
 

 
 


Hope everyone has a very Happy Easter!  I must leave you with at least one picture from our Disney Trip.   I only took a couple of hundred pictures but the castle fireworks are always a favorite!!
