Happy Easter!

I would like to introduce my niece Guinivere, shortened to Guin.  She had a wonderful time at the park with the Bunny!  The Bunny and grass areas are 3D, you can't really see that in the picture but it made a big difference in the finished layout. When the Bunny and grass were just paper the layout looked top heavy and I didn't want to remove the trim. I used some smooch, stickles and gel pens on the flowers and eggs!

I doubt my husband will recognize this bucket, it came with chili cheese fries. Of course I had to save the cute bucket they came in, he rolled his eyes I'm sure! I just covered it with paper and put the Chick stickers on the inside rim of the bucket. I used the tweet tweet border sticker on the outer rim of the bucket, some ribbons and egg stickers on the front, super fast and fun!


The last item I have to share with you today is a gift bag. This is another fun and easy project, I traced a gift bag template, (I had to add some cardstock to the bottom of the Easter paper so that I would have flaps to fold for the bottom of the bag) then I cut out another Bunny, (just his hands and head) and used pop dots to attach him.  Then painted some chipboard banners, cut the sticker sayings apart so they made statements about the egg hunt, used smooch on some thin dowels to put it them all together. 

Keep watching I have a two page layout idea using more of the wonderful Easter items from Reminisce!!
