A Special Thank you to this week's guest designer Darsie Bruno!! We have been so inspired by all your projects Darsie! Today Darsie has a wonderful JustRite Easter Basket filled with JustRite Easter Eggs!
Today's projects from Darsie and the JustRite Design Team using Easter Blessings are SIMPLY OUTSTANDING!! Be prepared to be BLOWN AWAY!!
Here's Darsie:
Instructions:
Basket: Stamp a Lace Border on cardstock with Versamark and emboss with white powder. Make 16 and cut as strips. (See photo for reference) Put eight strips aside and glue 4 strips to the remaining 4 strips end to end. Next, cut the eight strips you set aside in half.
To weave: Lay all 4 long lace pieces parallel to each other and taking the short pieces, start weaving in and out. You will have an overhang, but do not cut these off. They will be your tabs to attach the bottom of the basket.
Once you’ve finished weaving, glue the ends together to make the basket form. Fold the tabs. Cut the largest Classic Circle die and attach basket form to circle with tabs. Cut circle to fit. Cut a smaller circle to fit inside the basket to cover tabs.
Handle: With the Classic Scallop Edgabilities, cut out a strip with scallops on both sides. Add decorative cuts with the Decorative Insert from Triple Classic Scallops Edgabilities. Attach to basket. Decorate handle with pearls and ribbon, then wrap tulle around handle and adhere to inside of basket at edge.
Basket edging: Stamp four strips of a different lace border with Versamark and emboss with white powder. Adhere two strips to top outside edge of basket. Adhere the other two strips on inside of basket, hiding basket handle edges. Decorate with pearls, a tulle or ribbon bow and Prima roses.
To fill my basket I created 5 JustRite Easter Eggs using Easter Blessings.
Here are close up's of my five eggs.
Eggs: Cut 5 pieces of cardstock/decorative paper 4 x 6 inches and fold to 4 x 3 inches. Lay Egg die just to the left of the fold line and cut. This will make an egg card. Emboss with embossing folder, stamp images and sentiments from Easter Blessing stamp set on scraps of white cardstock, and decorate. Fill inside of Egg card with bagged candy or bite-size chocolate bar and tie with a ribbon.
Here is a look at my Easter Basket filled with eggs.
