Easter Basket Add On

Hello!  Today I have a shaker card that I created with three of Trinity Stamps new dies.  I have been thoroughly enjoying all the different ways to used these dies.  

To start this card, I cut the cardbase from a piece of double sided patterned paper using the Egg Shaped Card Die Set.  I like using that type of patterned paper because the inside is just as pretty as the outside.

To make the well for the shaker bits, using the Easter Basket Add-on die, I cut both the top and the bottom of the basket eight times.  I prefer to use 110lb white cardstock because I am able to build a deep well quicker.  Once I have my pieces glued together, I glued them to the card base.

I sprinkled some Pool, Bubblegum and Honey Dew Sparkle Spots in the well.  I cut a piece of acetate using the second largest die in the Egg Shape Card Die Set and sealed the shaker spots in by using liquid glue.  

I used the dies again to cut the basket out of a dark turquoise cardstock.  I dusted the edges of the basket and handle with Mermaid Lagoon Distress Oxide Ink.  For the piece that is the "inside" of the basket, I made sure to apply enough ink so that it was darker.

For the large sentiment on the front of the card, I decided to use the Happy Easter Egg Add-On die.  I cut the sentiment off the egg frame.  I cut it out of pink and orange cardstock.  I like to create a show on my lettering by offsetting the two letters.  

I used the dies from the Easter Basket Add-on to cut out a variety of flowers, leaves from different colors of scrap cardstock.  I also use the die to cut out a bow for the top of the basket.  I glued them at the bottom of the basket and at the top.

For the inside of the card, I cut out another egg from white cardstock.  I used the Simply Sentimental-Easter to stamp the sentiment.  

I am pretty please with the way this card turned out.  I love the patterned paper on the inside and the egg shape of the card.  I am linking to my YouTube Video process video if you want follow along.

Thank you so much for stopping by today!  I am linking to my YouTube Video process video if you want follow along.
