Easter Basket Fun

It's that time of year when I spend way too much time making cute things.
Cute *little* things, like this basket full of yummy candy. This basic pattern has a million and one ways to change it up. Or leave it plain and simple.

I used a 6 x 6 square and scored the sides at 1 1/2. That leaves the basket width at 3" with the sides at 1 1/2. A sturdy little box. The handle is 12'' by 1 1/4. Glue the ends inside the basket or like mine on the outside for added interest. Decorate with Background stamps your flower punches and enjoy!

I used the bright summer palette of Sunny Yellow, Hydrangea, Watermelon, and Citrus Leaf.
This cute little project showcases just a few of the 60 great colors that Close To My Heart has to choose from.

If you're like me, you can never have too much paper! Don't you agree??
