So the last 5 days I have been sharing DIY favors, and treat bags.  Today I thought I would add a twist to it.  I thought this would be perfect for those kids that are difficult to get a Easter gift.  I actually have two age ranges that are difficult and that is my sister’s and brother’s children who are under the age of 2 and have not been exposed to chocolate yet.  The other age group I find difficult are the teenagers. These are my in-laws kids who have hit the teenage years. The kids that think that they are not little kids any more.

So what Easter gift do you put together for the little babies and teenagers?

Get ready because all you need is some designer series paper and the Stampin’ Up gift bag punch board.  Yes! A cute bag filled with some treats and a gift card.  Now I want to clarify that I have used up all my current Stampin’ Up Designer Series paper so I went digging through my old stash.  I found the perfect paper that had Easter written all over it.  The bag took me 10 minutes to make.

I wanted to make the bag fun so I took out some dies, cut out some shapes and made  a bunny.  You can use a Stampin’ Blend to make the face whick  I printed one I found in clip art.  I was really happy with my creation because trust me I only get about an hour of crafting time a day.  I can relate when you say I do not have enough time in a day to create.  So this is why I am sharing quick fun and wow crafting projects.

So if you are enjoying any of these project ideas, you are going to love the FREE resource Library.

This library has FREE step by step PDF files of different projects.  I need to emphasize that new projects are uploaded on a weekly basis.  So you will always get fresh new project ideas.

*** I used a lot of retired products to make this project. Include the mini clothes pin which was from a Paper Pumpkin kit.  Below are items you can use in place of the items I used.

Yesterday I shared a cute Easter Carrot Favor Box that needed a template.  I know many of you are thinking who has time to trace and cut so many favors.  Especially when you need to create so many at once.  I mean you can photocopy and cut.  But still there are still many to cut.  Well today I am going to show you how you can make an Easter carrot favor box with no cutting at all.  Well there is very minimal cutting.

Ready?….

You will need some designer series paper.  I used the 6″ X 6″ Garden Impressions Designer Series Paper and some pretend folding a carrot was born.  To get the instructions to this amazingly quick carrot favor join our FREE Creative Craft club.  You will get instant access to the library.  Get this tutorial NOW.

But oh no!!….

I need to mention that I had to update this image as the stamp set I was recommending has sold out.  Trust me I know how annoying it can be when you fall in love with a product and it is not available.  But hang one people, we are crafters and as crafters our creative minds are always thinking.  So that said, I pulled out my Scan n Cut.  Logged onto Brother Canvas Workspace and looked through the library and found….you guessed it… the cutest silhouette bunnies.  Don’t get me wrong they had ones where you need to cut out the eye’s, nose, mouth etc.  But with 3 small boys running around I do not have time to glue those small pieces down so silhouette bunnies work amazingly for me.

I need to mention that the project I created uses retired ribbon, but you can substitute with the Call Me Clover Ribbon.  I was also able to find a substitute for the bunny if you do not have an electronic cutting machine, you can use the the Bunny Builder Punch.

Ever since my kids started school I have learned that the holidays during the school year come and go very quickly.  I feel like I am constantly thinking of cute creative treat holders or loot bags for the next holiday.  It’s fun putting these special treats for all the kids in our lives, but sometimes I wish they were more spread out.  After all it was just last week I was creating Valentine treat holders for their classmates and here I am four days after Valentine’s and I am already thinking of Easter treat holders.  I love the way it just shows Easter all over it and it is so easy and quick to make.

First….

I chose some designer series paper. You can not go wrong with Designer Series Paper.  The pretty pattern just completes the project all together.  I used the Nature’s Poem Designer series paper.

Next….

I traced, and cut the pattern.  Cut a circle using the Layering Circle Framelit. One circle was cut using the whisper white cardstock and a larger circle was cut using the retired Old Olive cardstock.  Substitute Old Olive with the Call me clover cardstock.   I stamped the sentiment with the retired Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set, but you can use the Fable Friends Stamp Set.  For the flower I used the Springtime Impressions thinlits and the butterfly with the leaves from the Butterfly Beauty thinlits.  I adhered everything together and used some Tea Room Ribbon Combo.  Once assembled, fill them with your favorite treats.

This is the most adorable favor box and if you love it as much as I do then grab your FREE template in the Resource Library.  Join the Creative Craft Club and get your free template HERE!
