Here's my card for last Friday's Free For All Colorful Basket Challenge. Forums at Splitcoaststampers This one took me a while, but I like the way it turned out.
I sketch out a simple basket template on some cardboard and then weaved on the 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon. Chocolate Chip went horizontally and Very Vanilla went vertically. I stamped the sentiment with Chocolate Chip ink, punched it out with my Designer Label Punch and adhered it to the basket with some Sticky Strip. I then added the Styled Silver Raised Dots Designer Holder with the silver brads. I used my Sticky Strip to adhere the basket to my Bashful Blue cardbase. I used my Wide Oval Punch to punch out the *eggs* from my Sweet Pea scrap pile. Each egg was sponged with coordinating ink and the glued to the card.
What do you think? TFL - Regina

I'm going to sit back and admire your basket because I ain't a gonna do it Regina!! My gosh, this is OUTSTANDING!! LOVE how you used the wide oval punch and dsp for eggs too. I was planning on doing that, but never got to it and I think I've finished my Easter cards. Well, maybe next year!! GORGEOUS work and very well worth the extra effort!! TFS!
