Handmade Easter Treats | Lets Get Hopping Blog Hop



Hello and welcome back to another Let's Get Hopping Blog Hop.

This month's theme is Homemade Easter, anything but a card!! 
I have to admit, I'm not much of an Easter crafter. I also enjoy a bit cookie decorating so that seems to be my creative go-to at Easter time. Hence this theme was a bit of a challenge and I spent a lot of time sitting at my desk pulling out supplies only to end up putting them back again and walking away without creating anything. However one day I was sorting out my DSP and once I came across a sheet of Pick a Pattern DSP inspiration struck and my project just flowed from there.


Now I know what you are thinking, the brief was "anything but a card". Well as you can see in these next few pics, what initailly appears to be a card is actually an easter egg gift box. 



Clever, hey! 
I was so happy with how this box turned out that I decided to make another two slightly different boxes for my kids to give their teachers this Easter. 


Thank you for hopping by today, I hope you enjoyed my post. Next up in the hop is the amazing Jennifer Frost, I can't wait to see what Homemade Easter inspiration she has created for us.
