Simple Candy Treat Tent

Hi there, Jeanne here today with a fun project!

I love spreading a little cheer around the holidays! It doesn’t matter the season or the occasion, I know everyone loves a little surprise, and some chocolate always makes you feel a little better.
Today I’m sharing how to make some simple treat wraps. I inserted four foil wrapped chocolates in a cello bag that’s 3.25 x 4.25”. You want a small treat that’s not too thick.

The friend in the bunny costume, along with the eggs, comes from the Easter Friends set. The fun sign in the background is from the Camping Friends set.

I cut two of the Stitched Duo 3 Tags (the Stitched Duo 2 works really well for this also). Next I scored a line across the bottom at 3/8”. If your treat is a little thicker you can adjust this measurement to make the bottom a little wider.

Attach the two dies together with strong tape to create a U shaped base to hold your treats. While holding the two ends together punch a hole to keep things together. You can insert a candy pack with some double sided tape. Now for the fun part… decorating!

Decorating is fun and easy using products from Pretty Pink Posh. The stitched design throughout the collection coordinates the dies so they go together seamlessly. I used the scallop oval from the Decorative Tag One to frame my sentiment from the Everyday Greetings Stamp Set.

The bees are from the Bee Friends Stamp Set that has matching dies. For those who didn’t get a chance to get them while they were a free gift, it’ll be releasing in May!

Pretty Pink Posh has lots of border stamps to choose from that make wonderful trims for these packages. This one is from the Scallop Borders set.

The Easter Friends set will make all your Spring treats look amazing! I know they’ll be adored and appreciated!

I hope you enjoyed today’s post. Thanks for stopping by the Pretty Pink Posh blog!

Stretching Your Die Cuts+ Video

Hello everyone, Vera here sharing another way to use Easter Friends coordinating dies as a non–Easter project. With a little imagination, you can create all sorts of characters with some of the dies you may already have in your stash!

For this project, I also used Friends Forever Coordinating Dies, Friends Forever Stamp Set and Everyday Greetings Stamp Set.

This is super fun project and I encourage you to try it!

First, I die cut the bunny from Easter Friends coordinating dies on bristol paper, and die cut the heart and the flowers from Friends Forever Coordinating Dies and Scallop Square Tags on white card stock. I used Copic Markers for coloring all the die cuts.

We hope that today’s post and video has inspired you to think of new ways to use your die cuts!

Layered Pastel Easter Card

Today we have another special post by Lori Hairston. She created these darling Easter tags using both new and old Pretty Pink Posh products.

Let’s take a look at her post and video, shall we?

Hi, there! I’m hopping by with an Easter card featuring two cute Pretty Pink Posh bunnies from the Easter Friends stamps and coordinating dies.

You might notice that one bunny is sporting a cute pair of glasses. You can find those on the Holiday Pals stamp set.

The card base and front are die cut using the largest die from the Scallop Square Tags dies. The pieces aren’t really attached just held together with a white clothespin. The inside sentiment is stamped on the smaller scallop square.

DIY Paper Easter Baskets

Today we have a special post by Lori Hairston, one of the guests in our March blog hop. She showed me a picture of these handmade baskets that don’t require a fancy die and I knew we had to showcase it here on the blog.

Let’s take a look at her post and video, shall we?

Hi, there! I’m happy to be here to share these mini Easter picnic baskets. So fun to make and they turn out adorable, especially when topped off with that sweet little bunny from the Easter Friends stamp set! The bunny and egg are cut out with the coordinating dies and the tag is part of the Stitched Notes Dies.

What is it about Easter baskets? I’ve always loved them. When I was little I used the same one every year. One that was passed down from my uncle. My daughter, Lauren, used the exact same Easter basket and I’m keeping it for Louisa. She’ll be the fourth generation to use it. It’s old, it’s worn, but I love it!

I’ve sized these to hold 2 plastic eggs. Even though they’re mini, they’ll hold plenty to give as an Easter treat.

You can check out the video to see how easy the baskets are to make and there’s a couple of quick tips on the tag, too.Click the graphic below to watch it!

Louisa (even though she’s only 4 1/2 months old) is definitely getting one of these. Her momma can keep it and put it out every year. If you make an Easter Picnic Basket to give away, I bet it will be loved enough to keep from year to year.

Have fun creating Easter projects with Pretty Pink Posh goodies!
