A little Easter gift basket

 

Hello dear creative community,

 

greetings from Germany again today.

 This time I don't have a card for you, but a little tutorial for a small Easter basket.

It is modeled on the typical fruit crates. You can decorate it however you like.

 

All you need is photo card, glue, scissors, a scor pal or something similar, a ruler and I think that's it.

 

First you need a piece of photo cardboard measuring 6" x 8".  This is folded from each side at 1" and cut as shown in the picture.

 

The side pieces are folded up and glued together to create the base of a box.

 

For the next step, we need 4 pieces of photo cardboard measuring 1.5" x 3.5". These are folded lengthwise in the middle and then glued in each corner.

Now we need 4 pieces of photo cardboard measuring 6" x 1" and 4 pieces measuring 4" x 1". These will be the cross struts of the box and glued to the long and short sides. And now the box is finished and can be decorated and filled. I think everyone will be happy about this little gift at Easter. Especially when there is not only something sweet inside, but also a cute GSD stamp.

 

Have a great, creative weekend.

Best regard,
Nicole
