Moving Right Along...

to Easter! Now, that St. Patrick's Day has passed it's time to start thinking of Easter and all the fun times it brings. Today I have a treat idea for you...it's very simple...the hardest thing is dragging yourself out to the store to get the candy!!!

When I spied this box of chocolate carrots in the grocery store I just knew I had plenty of DRS Designs images that would make it look much better than this...



Here is what I came up with...



I simply opened the package and then dismantled the box so that I could use it as a template. This particular box fits on an 8.5 x 11 sheet of cardstock. I traced with a pencil and then cut it out. I then stamped the easy raindrop background in bliss blue ink. I used my Creative Memories cutting system to cut the oval and adhered a piece of acetate inside the window. The "dirt" is a torn piece of kraft paper that was stamped with Vicki's versatile background...the grass was stamped with the grass background and then snipped with scissors!! I thought the grass needed a little something so I added two of the flower ribbon slides. I've had this ribbon forever and I thought it would be cute to blend in the with the grass, yet still be the center for the flowers. This was a really fun project!!! I added some clouds using just the edge of this flower stamp...the happy bee and "for you" sentiment finished things off.

Here is a shot of the inside...once you finish the candies...



...the Easter Bunny is there to wish you a Happy Easter!!!

Here are the markers I used in the project...



I hope this provides inspiration to jump start your Easter projects...be sure to come back and post a link so we can see what you create with your DRS Easter images!
