Spring Non-Card Virtual Swap...with the Inky Fingers Swappers

Ever wonder what to do with the great tins that items come inside of? Well, if you don't recognize this, it's an International Foods instant mocha tin...perfect for our Spring Non-Card Virtual Swap with the Inky Fingers Swappers. I sent this in to the Swap Hostess Carrie for her to post on her blog, along with the other photos sent in. We invite you all to participate. Doesn't have to be fancy at all...just so it's Springy and not a card. Visit her post here to see the fun entries.

I used the Build-A-Bear DSP for the blue background paper and the Eggcellent Kit for the flowers, rub ons, adhesive rhinestones, and grass. Easy peasy, as my 1st grader would say. The eggs were made with my Wide Oval punch and the egg decorating kit, with mints sandwiched in between. The butterflies were made with the Beautiful Wings Embosslit. Yes, just like it sounds, the embosslit embosses and punches out the butterfly with one pass through the Big Shot and it's only available through tomorrow. It's a wonderful deal at $11.95, considering that you can get 4 different butterflies of 4 sizes and patterns with one piece of 2 x 2 1/2" of cardstock. Nice!

Thanks for stopping by the Stamping Station. Happy Easter to you!

Blessings,
