Easter Sweeties
A very quick post from me this evening, to wish all my lovely pals in the Northern Hemisphere a Happy Easter and to share two sweet Easter baskets I made for my kiddos. I meant to post this earlier, but we've been having too much fun celebrating our Easter, so a little later than I'd hoped posting.
I used two different Funky Hand paper sets for the baskets. Georgie's I made from a lovely set called Spring Wedding and Zac's from a cool boys set called Boys Will Be Boys. I printed a different design on each side of the paper, so that the inside of the baskets would also be decorated. I love how this looks and chose to reverse the print on the handle of Georgie's basket just to mix it up a little. You can see in the two pics below the inside papers. Just a sneak peak, as I couldn't resist showing them with their contents.
The sweet Easter Bunny and Chick image I've used is from a lovely range drawn by the talented Sylvia Zet for Spesch Stamps. I've coloured them with Promarkers and then added a touch of yellow Flock to the wee chicks wings and some white FlowerSoft to the bunnies tails. I inked the edges of the images with memento inks in various colours and matted the images with a Spellbinders Lacey Ovals diecut in colours to complement the different baskets.
Funky Hand have got an Easter Sale running at the moment and all their gorgeous papers are 50% off! Yep, you read right - half price off everything until 11pm Easter Monday! So go fill your baskets. There are lots of fabulous choices. You can check out my previous makes using their gorgeous papers here and here.
Thanks for popping into my lil' blog today and Happy Easter to you all. I hope you're having as much fun as we've just all had. It's bedtime here in New Zealand, so nighty night all. Hugs, Wends x

Hal always says he doesn't need an egg (now he's all grown up at 19) but I still have to get him one and he still eats it of course!
Happy Easter to you all.
Lots of love
