Tutorial - Easter Place Setting

Good morning everyone! Today I have a project for place settings for Easter.

I modified a tutorial I did last easter for this one.

Cut a piece of double sided cardstock weight paper to 6x6". (I am using Basic Grey's new Kioshi line).

Round the four corners.

Score at 2" and at 4" Take your paper, turn it one turn, and score again at 2" and 4". You should have a tick tack toe pattern of scores, with nine squares.

Fold at your score lines, and cut from side of paper 2" to middle score lines on the top and on the bottom.



Fold it up, punch a small hole

secure with mini brad

cut a .75" strip from the same paper, and adhere to top

Color your Rubber Romance Image - this is Marcie Has Something to Say.

Cut out colored image and adhere to basket

Use stickers or stamps to name the basket for your place setting. At the brunch, I will fill this up with some easter "grass" and jelly beans or something like that.


Enjoy!

Unity Thursday 3-25-10

Good morning everyone!! Welcome to our Thursday unity hop!!

I'm still set making in my cards, and this week, I used the "where you are" again, but with a totally different look - I love how when you stamp solid image stamps with a dye ink, you can still see the underlying pattern. Its a really nice subtle effect




(this set will be available soon)

** embossing folder is Sizzix.

Be sure to check in with all of the DT blogs to see all the beautiful creations!! I hope you enjoy the rest of your hop today. Have a GREAT thursday!!
