Happy Easter, everyone! I'm back today with my second project from Sister Stamps Release #12. This time featuring the new Year of the Rooster stamp from Chinese Zodiac Collection. Being that today is Easter, I just couldn't resist showcasing this darling rooster on an Easter surprise treat bag. What's the surprise? Pull up the the tab on the front of the bag to see....
...Easter egg "hatches" open to show a little chick and all the chocolate eggs inside!
Doesn't "papa" rooster look so proud to see his little baby?
This Easter cuteness is a brainstorm of cleverness from
Andrea Walford...original template and tutorial for her
Easter Peek a Boo Gable Box can be found on her blog, Sunny Stampin'. Since I don't own the oval Coluzzle template needed to cut the window in the box, I created a similar template for mines in MTC. I also ended up decreasing the depth of the box from it's original 1-1/2" to 3/4", mostly because it would take an ENTIRE bag of chocolate eggs to fill the larger sized box. (LOL, yeah, I'm "CHEEP"!) The little chick is a digital stamp from Azadi Images, banner is a cut from the Cricut Wedding Solutions cartridge, and corner embellishments were diecut from Provocraft's Vintage set.

ReplyDeleteLove this card style - you did a great job in making that egg split to show the little chick!!!!
ReplyDeleteAdorable and really clever. I love interactive paper projects and yours is da 'BOMB'. Besides the connection of the year of the rooster and the Easter chick, I like that it is a treat box and not just a card. I am so grateful that you shared this eggs-cellent craft project. Thanks!
