Scallop Envelope Easter Basket

I have seen many people making these Easter baskets using the Scallop Envelope die for the Big Shot and decided I had to try this myself. It was so EASY and QUICK. Below are the steps for making your own.

First, using your Big Shot, cut out 6 Scallop Envelopes. Attach the side tabs together as shown above, with Sticky Strip.

Next, take your remaining ends and attach them together to make your basket whole.

You will now have a hole in the bottom and will need to "patch" it with another piece of cardstock. I made mine square.

I cut a 1"x11" piece of cardstock and punched the sides with the new Eyelet Border punch to make the handle. Attached it with sticky strip also.



I added Delicate Dots DSP (SAB) to each side and on the handle for another festive effect.
