I had so much fun at our Petal Cone Die class a few weeks back. This is one of the projects that we made. This is our little Easter treat box....love it!
I used the Petal Cone die for the base of the box. It uses two of the die cuts in Pumpkin Pie. We then wheeled the dies using the builder wheels and Pumpkin Pie ink. After we assembled the box we closed the top.
The "top" of the carrot is made with the scallop punch and the two step bird punch. To create the scallop I cut from the outside to the middle point. Then I overlapped the scallop by two scallops and attached it with sticky strip. This made the scallop 3 dimensional.
The leaves poking out the top are attached in the middle of the scallop. The greeting is an old one (retired....sorry - I don't get rid of my words!) I just stamped it in Pumpkin Pie, punched it and then attached the ribbon with the glimmer brads.
Easy....peasy!!!! have fun making a million of these for your Easter table favours:)
Have a wonderful weekend!
Take care,
Heather
Hi Heather:
How did you manage to attach the scallop to the top of the carrot especially when it is on its side?
