easter treat bags

Hi there!

I'm here and on the Lawn Fawn blog today, with little treat bags that can decorate your Easter table, or even work as little place-card favors.

I used the basket image from Eggstra Special Easter, and the egg and bunny hat from Chirpy Chirp Chirp to decorate the tote bag.



Hanging from each, I attached a banner flag that reads happy easter, but you could always attach a name instead.



For a quick tutorial, and to find out which teeny tiny stamps I used to make the bunny's face, click over to the Lawn Fawn blog today!

egg painting {lawn fawn inspiration week}

Hi there!

It's another day of Lawn Fawn inspiration, and we're showing off the new plaid papers.

I couldn't help but pair the plaid with Chirpy Chirp Chirp, and have the little chicks paint the egg. The plaid paper picks up on every single color I've used in the scene.

The egg painting feels a little Sleeping-Beauty-ish, doesn't it? Blue! Pink! Blue! Pink!

Also, is it weird to have chicks painting an egg? I'm wondering if they have a little brother or sister in there! Maybe they just want to make it nice for the new little one?



In any case, I stamped the paint brushes, masked them, and stamped the chicks in place. Without removing the masks, I stamped the little paint bucket, masked it as well and then stamped the egg so it looks like it sits in behind.

I colored everything with copic markers. I have gotten a few emails asking which yellow markers I use and how I make sure it doesn't bleed. It's true, yellow is a trickier color to work with, so go slowly and don't try to blend it all out without letting the paper rest in between layers. I used Y02 and Y17 here. That's it!

I hope you like it! There's more to see on the Lawn Fawn blog today - click!

chirpy chirp tote bags {lawn fawn inspiration week}

Hi there!

I'm finally joining the Lawn Fawn team for inspiration week. I had a couple of cards on their blog already, but they were ones I'd already shared here last month. (In case you missed them, they were of fairies and laundry - click!)

Today, we're showing off the Easter-themed set (and happy Valentine's day to you, by the way, haha) Chirpy Chirp Chirp. I'm showing you how to use the new Tote bag die and make these fun Easter favors:



I used a few sets to create these packages: the critters from Party Animal got dressed up as well as the little chick from Chirpy Chirp Chirp! I love that the bunny hat is one-size-fits-all. I then gave them each an egg to hold, from Happy Easter. The sentiment is from Hello Baby.



To create the dressed-up fox, I first stamped the bunny hat, masked it, and then stamped the fox (but I wiped off the ink from his tail.) I then masked the fox's body and stamped the little bunny tail in place of his regular, foxy tail.

Same deal with the bear. I then cut them both out with scissors and popped them onto the Tote Bag.



Since the outside of the Tote Bag is plain white, I used pastel-colored cardstock to create filler for the treats. I think it's a fun touch!

I hope you like what I've made today! There's more to see on the Lawn Fawn blog today - click!
