Easter Basket Lining and Onesie

I know this post is a little late, but better late than never, as my Mom always told me!

A friend of mine needed an Easter basket for her daughter.  She couldn't find a lined basket that she liked.  So, she bought a nice white basket and some really pretty fabric to make a liner.  Along with the basket and fabric, she also dropped off a onesie to be deisnged for Easter.

I had never made a basket lining before, so the first place I went was Google.  I don't know how I ever lived without Google!  You can find everything there!  I found directions on how to make a basket lining for a round basket, took the measurements I needed and cut the fabric.

The first part was to sew the bottom circle to the side fabric.  The side fabric had to be gathered some to fit the circle.  The next to sew together was the flap.  I measured twice and cut once for the front flap and back flap pieces.

The next to sew together was the flap.  I measured twice and cut once for the front flap and back flap pieces.  I pinned the flap pieces onto the lining just to be sure they were the right length.

Next on the agenda was personalization.  I put one of the flap pieces in my embroidery machine and added her name.

Then sewed the flap pieces to the basket lining and added some ribbon at the end of each flap so that it could be tied on the basket.

On to the onesie.  My friend had picked out a super cute Easter image for the onesie.  I purchased this image from Apex Embroidery and cut it out of Heat Transfer Vinyl.  Using my heat press, I pressed it onto the onesie.

My friend was extremely happy with both the basket and the onesie!!  That sure makes a girl feel good!

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a crafty day ~ Deb

LITTLE EASTER GIFTS

Hope everyone is having a wonderful Saturday!  I took some time out today to make a few small Easter Gifts...nail polish holders and an EOS bunny. Both of these files can be found in the Silhouette Design Store

BUNNY MIXED MEDIA TAG

For my DT project for Scrappy Dew Creations, I created this bunny mixed media tag.  Sometimes I just need to go "out of the box" when making new things.  For this tag, I used the Egg Shaped Bunny file from Scrappy Dew Creations.

When I first started this project, I had no idea which way it was gonna go.  I started out with a tag, then cut the sun and rays out with the Silhouette.  I used this cut as a stencil to add the sun and ray to the tag using Faber Castell Whipped Spackle.  I added the yellow color to the spackle using Squeezed Lemon Tim Holtz Distress Paint.  The clouds were also cut out with the Silhouette and I used Faber Castell Glass Bead Glitter Gel which was tinted using Sail Boat Blue Adirondack Alcohol Ink.

From there, I added the Egg Shaped Bunny and grass which was also cut on the Silhouette.  The grass is part of the Easter Egg Hunter file from Scrappy Dew Creations, as well as the little eggs.  I just played around placing and moving the eggs until I thought they looked ok. The sentiment is from a retired set of stamps by Virginia Turtle Stamps, the fibers at the top of the tag are from my stash, as well as the flower adorning the Bunny's ear!

Hope you enjoyed this "out of the box" tag!!

EGG HUNT

Egg Hunt

Hey everyone!!  I'm here to share my lastest Design Team post for Scrappy Dew Creations.  This is a step card I made using two of Scrappy Dew's fabulous files,"Easter Egg Hunters" and "Egg Shaped Bunny".  All of the elements I used on this card are from those two files.  I did use Wink of Stella to highlight the little girl's dress, basket, waistband, and hat.  For the distressing on the fence, I used Prima's Shabby Tote chalk ink.  I hope this inspires you to make your own version!!!!!
