PILLOW BOX BASKET

It all started with Lynn Put's adorable Jack O'Lantern basket made from 3 pillow box dies cut with her Big Shot .. kudos to Lynn for thinking outside the box!

Lynn wrote a tutorial for Split Coast Stampers, and Beate added a video with her own take on the idea, and well, now there are patches of pumpkin baskets popping up everywhere in the cyber-stamping world!

Not wanting to be left behind, I gave it a try this morning and I can cheerfully report that making the basket is super easy .. but if you get a little carried away with the decorating (like me, ahem) then time can just slip away while you play, lol.

Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away here in Canada, so I decorated my basket for our family dinner table. Now you have to imagine that this little basket is chock full to the rim with chocolate Kisses wrapped in gold, copper and orange.

Let me tell you, I really had to fight the urge to go right out & buy them for this photo, 'cause I know darn well that I won't be able to leave them alone until Thanksgiving ... come on, it's CHOCOLATE!

Want to make this basket too? Contact me to get the supplies!

You don't own a Big Shot? You can use mine during Girls Night Out

cheers,

Donna
