Happy Easter!

Stampin' Up! Easter projects
Happy Easter!  For today's post, here are my Stampin' Up! Easter projects for this year, 2013.  The little flower pot and basket are gracing my dining table as my family celebrates Easter dinner.  They are perfectly sized centerpieces as there is still plenty of room for the big spread of food, and nothing is so tall that it will obstruct the view of family members as we enjoy one another's company and share God's goodness over dinner, conversation, and celebration.  My Stampin' Up! Easter projects feature several new products from the Stampin' Up! Spring Catalog and my favorite tool ever, the Big Shot!

I modeled the Easter basket after a similar basket made by Shelli Gardner with the Petal Cone Die about 2 years ago.  I saw it on her blog and was totally inspired to make a similar one but bring it into my Easter theme.  You can see her creation here.  I wanted the cross to be front and center of my Easter basket.  It's the center of Easter, so I wanted it central in my design.  And the egg in my flower pot is embossed in gold, like the cross on my little basket.  I was going for an elegant look.  Summer Starfruit and gold embossing with accents of white were just the ticket!

  1. These are GREAT–I co-run our Confirmation class at church with our pastor and make cards for the youth attending for the service. Now I know just what card to make—your Easter Elegance one will just be adapted a bit–thank YOU for the great inspirations!
    Have a blessed day! Nola
