Cute Bunny Curvy Keepsakes Treat Boxes

Spring is almost here, and the signs are everywhere!  The daffodils are starting to grow in my garden, and the birds are chirping.  We had a snow storm last week, but I was thinking "Spring" even when this was what it looked like outside:


I was playing around with the Curvy Keepsakes Die, and decided to make a little bunny to hold treats for my nieces and nephews this Easter.  What do you think?

I can't decide whether to include the little heart-shaped
nose or not.  What do you think?
 And, of course, I had to use some little white pompoms for the tails!


I made sure I attached the ears so they would not interfere with the opening and closing of the box.  I can easily add a few chocolates or some jelly beans inside for a fun surprise.


We also made these cute little bunnies at Stamp Club this week.  Here are the supplies I used for this project:

The two non-Stampin' Up! items are the googly eyes and the pompoms!  I plan to make some little chicks with the Curvy Keepsakes Thinlits Dies this week.

Happy Stamping,

A-Tisket, A-Tasket.....I love the Berry Basket!

As soon as I saw the new Berry Basket Bigz Die in the Occasions Catalog, I knew I HAD to have it! The basket is so cute, and it is easy to make.  Perfect for a little candy, some cookies wrapped in our cello bags, or some cute little 3 x 3" love notes and envelopes.

This is one of the projects we made at Stamp Club this month.  The ladies loved it!
The basket is made with Crumb Cake card stock.  We stamped it with the Hardwood background stamp and Crumb Cake ink.  The handle and the scallop trim were cut from one of the beautiful sheets of the Painted Blooms Designer Series Paper.

Here are the cards -- I think these little Love Notes are just the right
size for including with a gift or giving to a friend !
Spring is just around the corner (even though we just had a snow storm last week!), so I really enjoyed using the Painted Petals stamp set.  It is one of my favorite stamps from the Occasions Catalog.  It coordinates with the Spring Flowers embossing folder -- so pretty!  I used the embossing folder to decorate the little flaps of the envelopes:

The large cards are cut at 4 x 6" and the small cards are 3 x 4."  The blank pages will hold photos. Here are the supplies I used for this project:
