Easter Box

This is a project I made for my dear MIL who liked my St. Patty's one so much she wanted an Easter one!! I hope she enjoys this one.

I am entering it into the Peachy Keen Stamp Challenge-Anything Goes

I used 5 Cricut Cartridges: Create a Critter, Plantin School Book, Martha Stewart Seasonal Cake Art, 3 Birds on Parade, From my Kitchen

As soon as I saw the Easter Eggs paper I knew it would be perfect
 
I used My Creative Time Tag Dies set for the topper
This Cute Bunny is from Martha Stewart Seasonal Cake Art Cart
 
 
Ribbon and papers from stash

 
Grass is from - Plantin School Book cut at 4"w
chalked / Eucalytus Stickles - is was done for all four sides of box
 
This cute Bunny Bird is from - 3 Birds on Parade Cart cut at about 4"h
Pink by Design Stamp - "Mini Wrappers" for the Happy Easter
Stamp Ink is from Hampton Art Ink - Pink color (not sure of exact name)
Face is Peachy Keen Stamp - PK-134 Bird faces and more - Memento Ink Tuxedo
White gel for stitching/coloring in eyes
Memento Ink Pink Angel -used around ears
 

 
Bunny - Create a Critter 4"h
Face- Peachy Keen Stamp PK-755 Critter Faces - Memento Ink Rich Cocoa
Black gel stitching
Eggs- used oval shaped punches
Egg with Yellow Stickle is cut from - From My Kitchen Cartridge
(I was going to make a border with those but they were too little)
Pink by Design - Happy Easter Stamp "Have an egg-stra Special Day" in Memento Ink Tuxedo
 

 
Here I used the punch again and decorated differently.
My son autographed an egg and I wrote in the year for him.
Blue/purple gel pen
Chalk on the purple egg

 
Chalk on the blue egg
Silver gel pen for Chevron look
Stickels in silver and purple



The box is size 4x4x4 - made with my Scoreboard
 
 
Bottom of box
 
Pink by Design - Love Always Stamp "Handmade with love" 
 Dusty Concord from Tim Holtz Distress Ink
 
 
I modge podged the whole box and cut out thin cardboard pieces to tape into the inside for strength. Hopefully this is something that she will be able to re-use for a few Easters.
