The Hobbycutz Challenge

 Welcome to another Hobbycutz challenge.

 
The theme for this fornight is Easter gift boxes.  I made a little basket to hold Easter eggs, or maybe something more grown up for my Mum!!!

 
The basket is really easy to make - it is simply a square scored, cut and folded!  I added some patterned paper and punched the pretty detail out of the handle, before adding ribbon.  The die cuts, Swirly decorative corners/borders and Scrapbooking butterflies were painteed with white acrylic paint and then sprayed with Tattered Angels Concorde chalkobard and pearl glimmer mist.  Finally I added some pearls.

 
Supplies: 
Papers: Basic Grey Oh Baby Girl
ribbon, pearls
Tools: Martha Stewart border punch, scoreboard
