Easter Projects

Thanks for joining us again today.

We've got some incredible easter themed projects to share with you so let's get started.

Mary Ann Jenkins

"I love all the cute Easter die-cuts in the Hippity Hop collection and thought they would be perfect as ornaments on an Easter Tree! I was lucky to find the wire tree already in a clay pot, but it could easily be made by cutting a tree branch, spray painting it white, then adding it to your own clay pot. I painted the pot a pretty shade of pink and added a border I punched from patterned paper. Next I glued the largest bunny die cut to the front of the pot. For the grass I cut green cardstock into narrow strips and crumpled it up just a bit to give it some dimension, and added it around the tree."

"For the sweet little ornaments, I added loops of twine to various Hippity Hop die cuts and hung them on the branches. I glued a few of the flower die cuts directly to the branches, and also added some glam rocks to the branches for a bit of bling. Our Easter Tree looks so cute sitting on our table, waiting for the Easter Bunny's arrival!"

Heather Leopard

"I wanted to make a little surprise for my girls on Easter day and the little peeps kept coming to mind because my girls love marshmallows so I am sure they will love sugar coated marshmallows! To make their goody boxes, I cut a heart-adorned box from my Cricut using the Boxes and Tags cartridge and cut it to fill the page. I then decorated the outside by stacking various papers from the Hippity Hop collection and flowers, tying it all together with ribbon. I removed the little bunny from one of the sticker stackers journaling cards and it’s the perfect accent to complete the box."

"On the inside is a little peep sitting atop green paper strips to resemble grass . The paper was green on one side and had a pattern of various colors on white background on the 2^nd side. I misted the white side with green mist and then cut little strips to make the grass."

"For this project I used a leftover piece of cardboard from a box. It was perforated and a little shorter on one end. I used that to my advantage by tearing it away to make that look like "grass". "

"I base coat painted with white and then added some coordinating green to accent the spring colors in the Hippity Hop line. Some packaging was upcycled for my Hippity Hop sentiment mat.

This is a fun little sign that we can put out for the boys. I used a paint stir stick as my sign post."

Ro Philippsen

"I did these Easter cones using birthday hats as a template. I open de hat and draw it at a scrapbook paper, then I cut out as the mold, and to stand firm, I glued it over the original hat, and closing it again. Then I decorated the cone, and filled it with goodies for Easter. It can be hung anywhere, like on the door handle, on Easter tree(if you got one), or in the garden ..."
