Now that I have delivered the Easter treats I can show you the bags I made for the Great Grands. I upcycled a couple of bags I got from the Vet when I picked up food, they are really nice and heavy although didn't like glue as well as they did tape.
Since I was making bunny ATCs for A Tiny Craft Challenge I cut a few well maybe more than a few extra eggs but not many extra bunnies. I stamped a little more than half the basket and one handle (it makes a full basket) with co-ordinating Simon says Stamp ink and fussy cut them out. The basket stamp is from Limited Edition (long island) I taped it over the logo on the bag.
I also had to make a card for Cal. and used a House Mouse Easter stamp.
I cut the largest egg in purple and the second largest (which would have been perfect for an ATC) in the polka dot cardstock. Coloured Maxwell, fussy cut and popped him on a wobble, I took another chance die cutting HAPPY and gluing it right side up this time. (I read the whole word before placing it) I also cut a mini card easel for it. The Egg dies are a NBUS, I'm not sure how long I've had them at least 1 year or longer.
Closer look at how Maxwell sits on the wobble.
The bags were filled with their favourite candy, Reeces Peanut butter anything.
Since I used a NBUS set of Egg Dies I'm entering this in:

Thanks for stopping by and I had a lot of fun upcycling those bags.
That little mouse on a wobbler is so cute, Barbara. Thanks for inspiring others by sharing at NBUS.
ReplyDeleteThese are awesome, Barb! Love those cute gift bags and the egg-shaped House Mouse card! The basket stamp is very cool and could be used for lots of occasions! Love the die-cuts you used as well, especially the cute bunnies! Hope you are doing okay these days, my friend!
