Easter Baskets!

Gina K Designs on Stamp TV has a great video with the instructions for these adorable Gift Baskets!  I have decided to use mine for Easter.  It is so easy to make and you can decorate it anyway you want.  I like these baskets because they are a pretty good size basket.  Gina puts flowers in her example and there is plenty of room to do that.    You can find the instructions here-

I saw Loll Thompson's cute Pretty in Pink Basket and that led me to Stamp TV.  I love Loll's adorable basket!  You can see it here-

I added a duck here and a rabbit there- just because I love Punch art.  I was inspired by my sister, Rochelle's adorable duckie!  Take a look at her cute design-

  3. I bought them at a store in Florida. But you can find them on line at ebay. It's the My Mind's Eye company- the Stella & Rose line. They also sell them at the Two Peas in a Pod on line site. The rabbit paper was from We R Memory Keepers. I bought that paper at Stamped Designs in Dover, NH. I haven't tried to google it but I would bet you can find it on line. The paper is really fantastic!! Thanks for your comment!
