Spring Easter Basket Tutorial with Daisy Lane & Butterfly Gala

Spring Easter Basket Tutorial

Hello Paper Crafters!! This adorable Spring Easter Basket Tutorial with Daisy Lane & Butterfly Gala is so easy. All you do is make 4 score lines and cuts. I have made this style of basket before because it can be adapted to any size that you need. The use of the 3D Basket Weave embossing folder makes it look more realistic. To decorate my basket I used a variety of punches and dies that I had on hand: Medium Daisy punch, Butterfly Duet punch, swirly image from Parisian dies and the large detailed leaves from Magnolia Memory dies. Add a rhinestone and a faceted gem for some sparkle and you have a fun basket to fill with treats for Spring or Easter celebrations.
