A little basket, a treat to make!

This Little Treat Basket is easy to make and joy to embellish! I made this little basket using two Clear Dollar Stamp sets that will be released on January 1st. "Spring Critters" stamp set has the little chicken that is so cute with the sentiment" Hoppy Easter" and the stamped egg background was done with eggs from the "Spring Trimmings" stamp set. The eggs have two different separate egg design stamps to make different looking eggs, and is so cute and so fun to create with! I just love it!

DIRECTIONS:
This tiny treat basket is a great idea for table place setting and a great take-home gift for the children after Easter dinner! I borrowed the idea from Cambria Turnbow, who has a great step-by-step tutorial on Splitcoast Stampers Community.

The only thing that I did differently is that I background stamped the 5"x5" cardstock and colored it with Marvy Multicolor Markers before scoring. I stamped the sentiment onto Paper Trey White Cardstock, punching out with the Stampin' Up! Small Oval Punch, and then lightly sponging with Stampin' Up! Barely Banana ink around the oval edge, and then more heavily with Stampin' Up! Summer Sunk ink around the edge, and securing it to the front Chicken Round Medallion with a Basic Grey Black Mini Brad. This is very easy and fun project to do!
