Easter Treats


I made a lot of Easter treats again this year and actually forgot to take pictures of all of them before they were handed out, but here are a few that I did get photos of.
First up is this little box done with retired SU! designer papers and a bunny made with Lil Inker dies. 


Here's another version done in pink colors. I added an eye with black Nuvo drops.


Here are both boxes with the treats I put inside. I have 2 friends who just love these shortbread cookies and prefer them over candy.


Here is a small sampling of the many bunny boxes I made this year. Just out of range in the photo on the left is a Lindor Truffle candy which I added to each box
I used spring-themed designer papers and cardstock to make most of them and added die cut bunnies done with Gina Marie Designs small bunny dies. The boxes were made with a Lawn Fawn tiny gift box die and I added a tiny scalloped circle to each box. I had a whole stack of those scalloped circles already cut but I'm not sure which die I used to cut them. Just to make them sparkle a little, I added either a gemstone or pearl to each one.
I like to give these out to the employees at my local small grocery store, cashiers, and bank tellers every year along with other unsuspecting recipients just to see that little smile when someone is surprised with a little treat! I made quite a few others and filled them with jelly beans or Easter M&M's for the kiddos.

Entering these into the following challenges:


Critter Crazy Challenge #73 - A/G featuring a critter



Happy Hopping everyone - Easter is almost here!

Hi Carol, your boxes are all fabulous and a lovely idea for Eater gifts! I love your bunny dies, too, and all the boxes look so spring like. And what nice fillings! Shortbread would be my choice, too! Happy, happy Easter! Hugs, Valerie

You are so sweet to make & give out all these adorable goodie boxes! I know your kindness will be greatly appreciated at a time when it often seems to have gone out of style, unfortunately.
