This is a very simple way to make an Easter basket that is perfect for customizing with rubber stamps and other embellishments. This is a very versatile project. The body of the basket is created from a square of cardstock and as such it can be made in any size. The handle can be made from a piece of cardstock, ribbon or anything else that complements the overall look of the basket. The basket can be 'dressed up' with lots of decoration and embellishments or kept plain.
Materials Required
- A square of cardstock (the basket in the picture was make from a 12" square)
- A piece of cardstock or ribbon for the handle
- 2 brads or other fastenings
- Ruler, pencil and glue
- Paper folder (useful but not necessary)
- Rubber stamps, inks, coloring supplies and embellishments as required
