Easter Greetings....

Good Sunday morning and Happy Easter to you and your family!

We had a wonderful family time (and eats!) at my mom's last night and saw family that we hadn't seen for years -a wonderful surprise for sure!

I thought I would finally use the Nestie Eggs set from Waltzingmouse Stamps with my Spellbinders Nested Eggs dies to decorate a small box that I made.

I used my Sizzix Bigz XL Die #3 for the box - terribly easy to put together and then I punched the edge of the flap with the Martha Stewart eyelet edge punch for a sweet finish.

I stamped the egg three different times in three different inks and cut out each one with my Spellbinders Nested Eggs die. I cut two of the eggs apart and then pieced them together on the remaining egg to make the different colours.

I stamped the sentiment in the middle and then attached it to the beautiful silk ribbon (from Sharon Johnson's Stamp Simply store).

I attached a small doily under the ribbon to make it pretty and then attached an Aqua Mist button with a Jenni Bowlin pearl embellishment on top.

We are off to Ron's family Easter today - I have made scalloped potatoes plus a hash brown casserole plus couscous salad plus a rice salad for the vegan's in the family - it's so hard to keep up nowadays LOL!!
