Easter Gift Boxes and Card | Daydream | Rachel Lowe

Hello CVS friends, today I want to share some quick and easy gift boxes and a card I have created using Daydream Collection. With Easter not far away (and I love easter creating way more than Christmas) Daydream was perfect with  its beautiful muted colours to create Easter paper crafts.

You can find the milk carton cut file in the Silhouette Design Store. I cut the base of the milk cartons using Stepping Stones paper. I used papers from the 6×8 inch paper stack to cut the tops, using Garden Variety, Up in the Clouds and Sweet Serenity designs.

Next I cut three bunnies again using the 6×8 inch paper stack papers, I embossed the bunnies cut from plain paper but left the floral bunny as it was patterned. I added a small pom pom for the tails. Next I added word sentiments from the Accessory sticker sheet.

I cut three rosettes to attach my bunnies to, this really adds a wow factor. I then added some die cut ephemera to embellish. These will be filled with sweet treats and given as gifts.

I made this super cute Easter card which is so easy to put together and time friendly. I cut a 5×5 inch paper strip using the Garden Variety paper again. I then added Happy Place paper to back the circle wreath die cut piece. Before adding this to the centre of my card I added some sparkley ribbon. I cut another bunny (different style) resized it to fit my card and added off centre in the wreath. I added a pom pom tail and a phrase sentiment from the Accessory Sticker sheet.

 

I had so much fun making these Easter projects and who needs an Easter collection when you have Daydream collection. Thank you for stopping by today and I will be back soon with a layout using the new Sunkissed collection!

Hoppy Easter | Happiness and Unforgettable | Kylie Kingham.

Hello everyone! Wherever you are in the world right now, I hope you are happy,safe and well. It’s Kylie back with you today to share some more Easter inspiration. I really wanted to challenge myself for today’s project and try something new.So I decided to create some Easter themed, fold out cards using the Happiness and Unforgettable collections combined.

Whilst looking for inspiration via the Silhouette store, I did a search for Easter items and found the templates for both cards. The first card I created was predominantly the ‘Happiness’ collection.

I’ve also used some white and chocolate brown card stock from my stash for the basket, flowers and rabbit, just so I had the tonal effect I wanted. Each card consists of a liner page which had all the necessary slots for the positioning of all the eggs, the lettering and the rabbit. Once in place I added some extra flowers and one of the cute bows from the ‘Unforgettable’ collection.

For my second card I have predominantly used the ‘Unforgettable’ collection.

This card also had a liner for all the 3D elements to be added.I found it easier to have everything in place before adhering it to the card base.A tape runner has been used to adhere the liner as glue may of ‘wrinkled’ a little and I wanted to have it sitting flat.

Extra flower die cuts and a bow have again been added to finish off the card nicely and to ensure a neat balance. I have also used a white marker pen to add a free hand drawn border to the edges of the card. Once completed each card folds down relatively flat so that they can be sent to someone special!

I hope you have enjoyed seeing my cards today and they have given you a little inspiration to try something new also!

Until next time,

Kylie. xx
