Had made one of the baskets earlier and gave it as an Easter gift so I made a 2nd one to keep for myself. Cut the flowers with wire cutters. Weaved the flowers/greenery into the basket. Put Reindeer Moss inside basket.
Colored the 2 blue eggs using blue inks & no mixative. Used same felt pad & alcohol inks. Liked that each are different & one is darker than the other.
Put the Alcohol Ink Easter Eggs in the basket.
Stamped chicks from a popular Hobby Lobby wood stamp set that sold out at one HL here & there was only one more left after I bought last wk. Colored chicks with pencil color. Used Wink of Stella clear on the chicks eggs. Stamped sentiment.
Added ribbon.
Daisy & I wish you a Happy Easter. Photographed in my backyard where my BlueBonnets (isn't that appropriate since I colored blue Easter Eggs) are blooming. Thank goodness I photographed yesterday since it rained today. Did manage to walk Daisy after the rain stopped this morn. She has been walked every day since I adopted/rescued her from shelter in Aug of last yr.
