Easter Inspiration

Today was the first day I noticed the days are getting longer!!  I love it!  It felt like spring today and so here's a little Easter inspiration.  Come to the Paper Garden from 11:30am-1:30pm this Friday (every last Friday of the month, we have a free make and take) and create this for free.  I got the box template from this website: http://artfulavocations.typepad.com/artful_avocations/2008/02/pretty-little-1.html

I filled it with jelly beans and also chocolate eggs

I decorated the boxes with stamps from A muse and the ribbons are also from A muse.

This is the backside...

This is the frontside.  My husband forgot to take a pix of the frontside of the far right box.. oh well.. there's a cute bunny on it.  But here's the new spring elzybells stamp on the second box.  I punched out two oval shapes and attached them onto the sides of the box.  So fun!  Please come Tuesday for a template and a free take home box!

OK...So on the second Saturday of each month, we have another make and take from 11:30am-1:30pm.. here's what you can make March 8th!

I created this one myself!  Hope you like it.  It's a 4.25 X 4.25 square patterned notecard from A muse and just added some green cardstock and fringed it to look like grass.  I then attached two strips of puffy tape to the sides and dropped in a clear bag of jellybeans.  The topper was made from the Giga scallop oval marvy punch and I scored it in half and tied ribbon to it.

   All stamps and ribbon are from A muse, Jellybeans are the Starburst jellybeans.. have you ever had those?  yummy!!!!!!

Here's a picture of the candy outside of the pouch

I punched our new Rabbit punch and put a black dot for the bunny's eye and stuck a glue dot to seal it on the bag.  This is so easy!  Hope you can join us for our second Saturday as well...

Don't forget, there's yet another make and take on Tueseday, March 4th from 11:30am-1:30pm..I'll post what we'll be doing as soon as I come up with something tasty.  Easter is all about chocolate bunnies and jelly beans.. so we'll do something sweet and fun!  Stay tuned.....
