Didn't realise I was so in vogue with my hanging plaque!! I've seen loads of these little boxes but not one for holding Easter eggs which is a neat idea. Love the image your have coloured and the sweet charm added. Thank you for fluttering by #5. hugs Mrs A. (butterfly challenge).

Erica said...

Oh how beautiful Sandra. I've been seeing these quite a bit lately. I even faved a video tute that shows one folded flat to fit an envelope. You've inspired me.

Sandra I have been 'hanging' to see your creation finished. It is just beautiful. Aren't they so easy and enjoyable to make. I do love the Easter eggs at the back. I made 10 of these for the nursing home for their Easter raffle and put square packed Easter chocolates in the front one...but I like what you did. Love this one and it was worth the wait. [I have a cameo cut so it cuts in seconds for me so it is easy peasy.] xxx
