Happy Easter! Today, I’m sharing this Spellbinder’s basket filled with all the spring things. I used dies from both the Large and Small Die of the Month from February to create this sweet scene, adding an Easter egg to the basket and then nestling the basket in some grass. The dies are already so detailed, but to really bring them to life, I started with colored cardstock and added Distress Inks for some shading and depth. A Fancy Wavy Banner from Lawn Fawn is perfect for a spring sentiment heat embossed in white. To finish the card, just a few pretty pearls are all that’s needed.

Step by step instructions and a supply list can be found below. Thanks for visiting today!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
