Is it just me or is it hard to believe that Easter is almost here??!! Time is just flying by!
When my daughters were growing up, they LOVED Cadbury eggs. I can’t pass them in the grocery store without thinking about my girls!
I was doing some Spring Cleaning the other day and came across a cello bag with Halloween candy (yes, the candy was still in there) and a cute topper. Since I haven’t made a topper in a while, I thought it would be perfect for the Cadbury eggs with a few Hershey eggs thrown in.
I used one of the cute little chicks from the set For Peeps’ Sake. The stamp has a row of three chicks but I only wanted the middle one, so I put some tape over the other two before I inked up the stamp. It’s very important to remove the tape before you stamp onto your Whisper White card stock (ask me how I know). My sentiment comes from this same set. I punched out my chick with the 2-3/8″ Scallop Circle punch and then used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to place the sentiment exactly where I wanted it. If you aren’t sure what a Stamp-a-ma-jig is or how to use it, you can watch a video I made two years ago by clicking here. I think this was my very first video. I’m a bit ( a lot) embarrassed by it but what the heck, gotta start somewhere, right?
Using my dauber, I sponged around the scallop circle and the flowers with Daffodil Delight. I think the topper would have been cute had it been embossed but I ALWAYS do that so I decided to just leave it plain. I have to admit, I love an embossed piece of paper.
Have a lovely weekend! I’ll be back on Monday!
