Baskets and Butterflies

Baskets and Bloom die

I love these little baskets made using the Baskets and Blooms, Stampin’ Up! exclusive die and my Big Shot. They go together very quickly and whether you use card stock or Designer paper they can be decorated in so many different ways.  For these little darlings, I used the Tea Party Designer Series Paper (DSP) and then added pretty little butterly picks.

Beautiful Butterflies Die, Tea Party Designer Series paper

These Picks were made using the Tea Party DSP and the Pretties Kit. The butterflies were cut using the Beautiful Butterflies, Stampin’ Up! exclusive die from Sizzix. I can’t decide if I like them better with the little wire antennae or without.

The teardrop shaped bead is held into place on the wire pin with a small wrapped piece of sticky strip tape.

These are the die cut pieces for the basket. Put Sticky Strip tape along each side flap and along the bottom of the basket

Place the basket bottom on one edge of the basket, rolling and taping as you go.

Seal the sides together after the bottom is attached.

Wouldn’t these make fun little treat cups or place holders? Makes me want to have a tea party!

Happy Stampin’!
