Easter Egg Fabric Flower Bouquet

I love Spring because it is fresh and pretty. Everything is full of color and energy....even me! Today, I found my inspiration in this spring flower bouquet I saw in a magazine. And you know me, I love to challenge myself and find new creative ways to do things differently. Since we live in a high rise building and have no way to have a garden to plant flowers, I decided to create my own garden or make my own flower bouquet. This Easter Egg Fabric Flower Garden/Bouquet allows me to be inventive. It is charming and colorful- like Spring!

With some fabric scraps and little bit of sewing + the chocolates, you can create a magnificent craft or gift this Easter season. 

The flowers look so much more complicated to make than they really are.  I promise you it is super easy and fun. Check the tutorial here. 

This is a great project for a bonding moment between mother and daughter, your friends or just yourself. You can use any color or theme you want.  Get the tutorial here.

First butterflies of Spring on my blog. Yay!  I love butterflies! They are colorful, pretty and graceful. Who wouldn't love them? Today's post is a 3D Tuesday Challenge at Paper Craft Planet. Thanks to Adela who shared this beautiful GoldenNugget Box template. Last night when I first printed the template, I stared at it several times and asked myself what will I do with the template besides making a box. 

This morning, I opened the template again and manipulated it by enlarging the size, enough to fit on a 8½" x 11" sheet of cardstock. I decided to make an Easter Basket out of the Golden Nugget box template. I am happy with the result. I think its beautiful.

I cut my butterflies in different sizes  and colors using my Cricut Expression. I used the Cake Basics Cricut Cartridge. I love the way they look resting on my basket and on my flourish. To me, butterflies represent a sense of evolution ..a change..a transformation. It's just beautiful!

The Easter Basket is equally beautiful. I dry embossed my paper with Tiny Bubbles folder by Cuttlebug. I created my basket handle using my Cricut Cake Basics Cartridge - (Border5). I really like the template because it is very forgiving. You can do anything with it.
