Scrapbook Layout by Mendi

I’m so excited to share with you this layout by Mendi. I need some warmth and Spring in my life and this is perfect. Mendi says…
“I’m back with another double page 8×8 layout to coordinate with the colors of my layout I shared last week from our same vacation.  My design was inspired by a beautiful sketch created by Allison Davis that called for lots of flowers and Lori definitely has plenty of beauties to choose from. I set to work layering her cutting files using her newest Echo Park “Sweet Girl” collection papers and brads. There are so many irresistible papers to choose from.  I think this collection would also work well for so many darling Easter & Spring projects!  Hmm… I think I think I just inspired myself with a challenge for next week.  Until then, stop by my blog today for enlarged views of my layouts”.
To create todays layout I used the following cutting files designed by Lori:
‘1 Great Day’ Phrase (Silhouette store only)
Flower Leaves (Silhouette store only)
3 Flower Leaves (Silhouette store only)
Flower (Silhouette store only)

Easter Goodies by Corri

Today we have Corri on the blog sharing some beautiful Easter Goodies…

Hi everyone! It’s my turn up on Lori Whitlock’s blog today. Lori just added a bunch of fabulous new files to her shop. I just love this new step card…so pretty and easy to put together. 

I cut the card exactly as sized and added this cute little chocolate bunny and a banner from this set. 

This pretty paper is from the Echo Park – Sweet Girl collection that Lori designed. 

I cut this cute little purse bunny to match.  This would be so adorable filled with some jelly beans for Easter.  I added some box pleat trim for the handle.  

Card and Chick by Christine

Today we have Christine showcasing her talents with us…
I love making Easter projects and as soon as I saw the Chick Candy Dispenser, I knew that I just had to cut it out.
I followed Lori’s instructions here on her YouTube Channel to put it together and then added a few of my own embellishments.  Don’t you just love googly eyes?  I think that they add so much personality to my little chick.
The front of the box opens up to reveal your treat of choice.  I had just picked up these yummy Hershey’s Kisses in Easter colors. The front will close and then you carry the box around by the handle at the top.
I added the feathers on the back of the box.  I had to use some really good glue to get them to stick but once they were dry everything was fine. I used orange glitter paper on the beak and the feet.  Sometimes, those little details can really make a project pop!
You can’t have a treat box without a card, can you?  So I looked through Lori’s card files and found this one which I think is perfect.  It gave me a way to incorporate the cardstock that I used on the chick into the card so everything is matching!!  I love how simple it is too.

And since it was so easy to cut out this card, I decided to make a matching envelope.  Again, I used the same yellow cardstock to cut it out.   What fun to have a bright yellow envelope.  I used the fancy envelope.  I love the beautiful flap.  Because I wanted to dress it up even more, I cut out a mat for my flap.  If you want to learn how I did that, please stop by my blog and I will show you how.  It’s really easy!
