Stampin’ Up! UK Easter Egg Flower Die Clear Box Tutorial
I hate Cadbury’s Creme Eggs. Bleurgh! However, I know that they’re a popular ‘delicacy’ at Easter time, so I wanted to do something fun to show them off.
But then, I also wanted to do something with the new Spiral Flower Die, and tra la, the egg-in-a-flower was born. And then it sat on my desk. And sat some more. And sat a bit longer. Could I think how to finish it off? No chance! adding a sentiment didn’t work. Putting it in a box defeated the object of the flower bottom. Then I had a moment of madness and wondered if a cute clear box might work. Yay, it did!
So the video is below, I tried my very best to show off the build technique, but Window Sheets by their very name, are a nightmare to work with in videos….!
