SPRING EASTER BASKET using FLOWERING FIELDS PAPER - Stampin' Up!



Hi Friends!
My project today is an Easter Basket that I made using Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper.  It measures 3 1/4 round by 2 3/4" high.  I also used Flowering Tulips stamp set, the Tulips dies, Layering Circle dies and Highland Heather Grosgrain Ribbon.  You can get two of these Baskets from one piece (12x12") of Designer Series Paper.



I started with a piece of Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper sized  10 1/2  x  5".
I scored the  10 1/2" side at:
1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  6,  7,  8,  9  and  10".
I scored the  5" side at:
1 1/2  and 4 1/4"
To cut and put the basket together you can watch my Video Tutorial Here.
I put the basket together with Liquid Glue.
Below is a picture of my Template.  Your DSP should look like this after scoring and cutting.


I folded the top 3/4" strip inside the box and attached it with Liquid Glue.
Then I put the bottom of the box together.
I cut 2 Highland Heather Cardstock circles, 2 5/8", for the bottom and inside bottom of the Basket.  I attached them with Liquid Glue.
I used a piece of Highland Heather Cardstock, sized  3/4  x  8 1/2" for the handle.
I put Liquid Glue on the ends of the strip and glued about 1" of the strip below each side.


I stamped the Tulip image from Flowering Tulips stamp set onto Basic White Cardstock.
I stamped the first stamp with Daffodil Delight Ink.
I stamped the second part of the Tulip with Crushed Curry Ink.
I stamped the inside with Tuxedo Black Ink.
I colored the remaining white areas of the Tulip with a Light So Saffron Stampin' Blend.
I cut the image out using the Tulip dies.


I cut out three more circles using the Layering Circle dies.
I cut a smooth circle from Highland Heather Cardstock sized 1 7/8".
I cut a scalloped circle from So Saffron Cardstock sized 2".
I cut a smooth circle from Pear Pizzazz Cardstock sized 1 7/8".


I attached the circles together in size order with Liquid Glue.
I attached the Tulip on top of the Highland Heather circle with Dimensionals.
I attached the entire piece to the front of the Basket with Dimensionals also.
I tied Highland Heather Grosgrain Ribbon in a bow at the top of the handle and for the final touch I added 3  2021-2023 In Color Jewels around the Tulip.
