Mini Egg Carton... Easter Pig!

Before I start for today... please don't miss the news about the third release of promotional Sale A Bration items... scroll down or click here....

We had such fun with our Mini Egg Cartons in classes last week...

Take a cow... add a class of ladies in a creative mode... and up pops a cute little pig! Amongst other things!!

I adore the pig that Heidi came up with... though I was particularly happy to have the Sprinkles Punch on hand to create that curly tail.... eureka moment!!!

And you will have to wait to see what else we came up with.... but maybe some clues here.... 

Mini Egg Carton - Moo on Monday!

Following on from the Easter Chick and the Easter Bunny... I then moved onto a cow!

I can hear some of you asking... why a cow!? Probably something to do with the fact that Milka Chocolate is probably my favourite chocolate - especially those very big bars I used to bring back from many a French ski holiday!!

And when you have seen a "purple cow" skiing (and handing out chocolate... to kids!!! Cough!) around the French Alps during the Easter holidays... then it all becomes a logical choice... though I couldn't go the whole way and actually make my cow purple... maybe next year!

Ano hey...guess what! The cow was the most popular make here for Easter!!! But I forgot to take the photo of the herd!!!

Bakers Box Easter Bunny

If you need something larger for your Easter Treat giving... but still cute... here you go! 

Simple enough care of the Bakers Box die and the Pyramid Pals stamp set and dies...

Though with hindsight... I do wish I had added some paws!

That is it for my Easter Treats this year... though there is a special one I am itching to make.... we'll see what next week brings!

Easter Pyramid Pal Easter Chick... extended...

Ok ... where there is an Easter Bunny... you will always find an Easter Chick not far behind....

 

I just couldn't resist! Charlie Chick for you today.... Sitting on a Pool Party box this time....

I had to re-visit Home Bargains today... to stock up on these polka dot square muffin boxes... and would you believe it... no Pool Party and Blushing Bride in the pack any more... but hey Mint Macaron and Pink Pirouette instead... yes I am even happier!!

In fact... that may be a good enough excuse for another Pyramid Pal lidded box make at the weekend... 

Easter Bunny Pyramid Pal... extended version...

Another easy project for Easter today... lots of happy oohs and aahs over re-creating this little project....  

A pyramid bunny care of the Playful Pyramid Pals stamps & dies.... 

Popped onto a scalloped polka dot  square muffin box as a lid (mine from good ol' Home Bargains).... more than doubles the amount of chocolate you can gift! And looks SO cute!!

Finished off with a Honeycomb Bob Tail on the back ...

And a Playful Pals carrot... an awesome idea for which I cannot take any credit! That goes to Karen Fontinelle whose blog post you can visit here for more details.... 

I drew my lines in using marker pens the same colour as my card (Tangerine Tango & Cucumber Crush) - but I would stick to a black pen for a re-make!
