This is a box I had made for my girls right after Easter last year – you can tell it’s a year old by the DSP and embellishments I used!
I always try to pick up a fun little game (like pick-up sticks, etc) and stick it into their baskets so we can have some childish fun on Easter morning. Last year, I found a little game called “Tower of Bunnies” which was perfect for my girls. You stack small plastic bunnies between plastic disks and make a 5 level tower. Then, using a magnet, each player pulls a bunny from the tower. The object of the game is to not have the tower fall on your turn!
The problem with these fun games sometimes though, is that they don’t come with a container to keep the many small pieces in. We enjoyed this little game so much and didn’t want to loose any of the pieces so I created this little box to keep all parts safe.
Who knows what little game I’ll pick up this year – but this game is coming out of the cupboard today! In fact, I think I’ll go get it out right now…

Occasions Mini highlights-part 1
Posted by: | Comments
All this week, I’ll be sharing projects that I’ve prepared for a special Occasions Mini class next month. There are SO MANY amazing products in this mini catalogue, it just seemed fitting to use as many as I could for one class!
Because of the long weekend, I lost a day in my week, so I’ll be sharing 2 of the projects today:
You should know just how much I love this stamp set – Easter Blossoms- that’s why I showcased it first! I also used Springtime Vintage DSP which pairs so well with the set. I loved Lisa Young’s card layout here, and made it my own for this class.
This is a fun little box created with the Petal Cone die. Also from the mini, I used the Eat Chocolate stamp set. Thanks to Kim Sinclair, one of my new stamping friends, for the idea!
See you tomorrow with another project!
TTFN!
