...something for PTI bloghop Feb 09






The theme of this months PTI Bloghop is spring!! Of course flowers would have been the obvious choice but I don't have any!! Lol. Except for a couple of teeny cuttlebug flower dies - which I used here for the wee blossom on the basket handle.

I made this dinky wee easter basket to my own design - if you fancy having a go, leave me a comment, I could do a template for this quite easily - it's super simple.

It's all PTI of course - Lemon tart and Ocean tides cardstock, Polka dot basics stamped in Ocean tides in on the basket liner and a square fromGuidelines stamped in Versamark on the basket outer. Thwee little flower stamps are from the recent With Sympathy stampset from PTI which is quickly becoming one of my most used sets. The sentiment is from the Mixed messages set.
I cut the tag with a spellbinders label die.

These would make fab little class favours or just a sweet treat for someone you know - I need to make another now for tiny daughter.

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone else's creations - I absolutely love blog hop!! Just hope I can stay awake long enough to get my link up!! Lol, need caffeine...

Hope it tickles.
