It is finally looking like spring in Calgary, warm weather and melting snow! I was outside in a T-shirt today and it was AMAZING!! So with spring comes Easter. Last year I had some cute little Easter treats that I gave the girls. They were a combination of treat box and easel card. Recently I have had a couple of inquires about how I made this fun little treat! So here we are. A quick little "How To."
Above is a picture of the treats I made last year. I used the Matchbox Die (now retired) and added a cute little easel card on top.
If you did not get the Matchbox Die, don't worry, I have some dimensions below to create your own.
First lets re-create the punch art bunny. I found this bunny on Dawn Olchefske's blog,
DOstamping with Dawn. I had to cut him down to fit the card. I missed the heart in this picture but I got it from the Owl Builder Punch and the whiskers are cut from a scrap piece of card stock.
Once your bunny is put together you can fold down the ear to make him even cuter! I drew a little line below his nose.
Dimensions for the the easel card:
5 x 2
scored at 2
1/2 and 3
1/2
If you have a Matchbox Die, use it! It is so easy and quick. If not here are the dimensions:
Base: 4
3/4 x 5
1/4
Score on all sides at
5/8 and 1
3/8 then cut away the sections shown and create your tabs.
Top (wraps around base):
2
1/2 x 6
1/2
Scored at
3/4, 2
7/8, 3
5/8,
5
3/4
Adhere the box together to create a base section and wrap-around. See Below.
I filled the box with chocolate Easter eggs. Any punch art would work on the cover or even a great little stamp. If you do not have the punches for this bunny than check Pinterest for other options as there are many different punch art bunnies.
I hope this helps, if you have any questions or comments please let me know. Have a great day.
