Welcome to Banana Frog 1st blog hop! The Froglets have come together today to create projects based on the theme of 'flowers'. I recently completed a paper woven basket and decided to decorate it with flowers instead of bunnies! That way the basket can be used for any occasion. For now, it will nicely store the Easter Eggs that I'm gonna use for our annual Easter Egg hunt.
The leaves, stems and flowers were laboriously cut out from MME's Bloom & Grow collection. It was then supplemented with more flowers from Superlicous & Super Dreamy set.
Added a couple of butterflies from Swirls & Butterflies set.
Another look at the basket. Added a touch of sticklers to the centre of the flowers.
More stamped flowers and butterfly. The butterflies were covered with glossy accent.
I got the instructions for the woven basket from Splitcoaststampers resource site. The shape of the basket will depend on how loose or tight you weave the paper. It was tedious but fun and the result was worthwhile!
Your next hop is Nat. Don't forget, leaving comments might just win you a prize! Thanks for dropping by and have a great day! TTFN!
