I've mixed some old with the new, my basket of goodies is made using the new Window Box thinlets and the card features the Circle of Spring wreath.
The base of the basket was easy to make using the Window Box thinlets. The Hexagon is cut in half and the second diecut is also trimmed to remove some of the bulk, to create the "basket weave" I used the cut outs from the horizontal die cuts and wove them back into the basket and glued in place. I added a half inch strip of cardstock for the handle, but I wanted something a little more special, so added the satin ribbon and bow to dress it up then packed it full of yummy goodness!
Want to make either of these projects? Here are the supplies used:
Stamp sets/bundles:
Window Box Thinlets, Circle of Spring Stamp set
Ink:
Crumb Cake, Wisteria Wonder, Rich Razzleberry, Pear Pizzazz, Delightful Dijon
Cardstock:
Crumb Cake & Watercolour paper
Adhesives & Embellishments:
Clear Stampin Emboss Powder, Very Vanilla 1/4" (6.4 mm) Satin Ribbon, Dimensionals & Tombo multipurpose glue

When looking for an Easter sentiment noticed Circle of Spring on my shelf, I can't remember the last time I used this set, the delicate flowers are just lovely and paired with the double bow perfectly compliment the basket. The wreath is stamped on watercolour paper and I also heat embossed with clear powder so that the Crumb Cake didn't run when colouring the flowers - I had a little "accident" and ended up with ink in the circle of my wreath, so I die cut the middle and then heat embossed my sentiment with Crumb Cake and clear embossing power in the background.
