Mini Curvy Keepsakes Easter Gift Box

Image
I used the Welcome Easter Stamp set and mini curvy keepsakes box die to make theses little treat boxes. The background stamps in the set are my very favourite part of the set. The little bee, flower and leaf images have been stamped onto the box before assembling in black memento ink. The sentiments also stamped onto white card and cut into thin strips and attaching with white bakers twine tied in a box. The boxes would look lovely with just the labels - but you can also add the images from the set, coloured with watercolour pencils and cut with scissors. I just attached them with some glue to the handles of the box. The bunny looks as if he is leapfrogging over the box! See yesterdays and 23 feb blog for other ideas using this stamp set. JoPx

I stamped the animal images onto white card using black memento ink and then coloured in using water colour pencils and blending these with the blending pens.  The rabbit - I just added some pink and cut around the outside using small scissors, I used the sentiments from the stamp set. I used the Stitched Shapes Framelit Dies for the background circle and adhered to the lid with some snail - or you could used double sided tape. The bunny image was put up onto foam pads to make it pop up a bit.  The picture above shows the other images as well as the other sentiments available in the stamp set. The jars could be gifted to a person who just need
