Now I fell in love with this stamp set as soon as I saw it in the catalogue. It was October, but I couldn't wait to buy Everybunny - it is SUCH a sweet stamp set and could certainly be used at times other than Easter. When it arrived my DH heard me squeaking with delight as I coloured the images - even for a colouring-impared girl like me, the images were SO easy to colour.
Now we are approaching Easter, so I decided it was time to teach a cute project at my March class, so my ladies had time to create their own Easter gifts before the holiday.
This design was a variation on a treat bag designed by my convention roomie Hayley, (click on CONVENTION on my side bar to see some of her fabulous makes). She shared a pretty cardstock version of this design at a shoebox swap a couple of years ago - and it was just crying out for an Everybunny remake!
I chose to use designer paper from the Subtles Stack, so we made a range of pastel colours at class - they looked gorgeous. The ladies each chose which image to use, and whether to punch or cut out. We then used our punched scraps to make a little matching card.
We used the Large Scallop punch and the 13/4" circle punch to create a window and inside we attached a Small Cello Bag filled with chocolate eggs. We did a closure with narrow taffeta ribbon so the gift bag can be opened and re-closed.
So what are you making for Easter?
