Let's get started with my projects...

I actually made the little 3D basket first and then the card, but we will start with the card first.

 I wanted my card for the hop to look like an Easter Basket so I sketched out what I wanted it to look like.  After doing that starting with Crumb Cake cardstock I used our Oval Framelits for the handle, and then added some length to the sides.  I then embossed the basket itself using the Festive Emboss folder.  I then used the Sweet Sugarplum Stampin Write marker to add some color to the streamers on the basket.  I layered 2 strips to the top and bottom of the basket for depth and then sponged all over with Crumb Cake Ink.  I added colorful eggs I had cut out again using the Oval framelits.  

The little basket was made using the Basket Builder Framelit dies.

To make the basket 3D  I cut out 2 of the baskets and then connected them together with a piece of cardstock making it a real little basket.  I then sponged all over with Crumb Cake ink.  I used Sweet Sugarplum for the accent colors.  I am so glad you stopped by and now it's time to continue on the hop.  Thanks for looking and have a great day!
