EASTER HUGS

I used three Distress Oxide ink colours to create an ombré effect on some cardstock and then diecut the 'Big Hugs' sentiment from that. I blended from Scattered Straw, through Fossilized Amber then finally into Saltwater Taffy. I also cute three layers of the 'XOXOXOX' portion of this lovely sentiment die, which I stacked three times, to create a wee 'platform' to rest the Easter basket on. I diecut a whole bunch of little elements from the scraps that this inking left behind after diecutting the sentiment and got lots of little Easter eggs in different shades, to put inside the egg basket. I dry embossed the basket and a couple of the little 'peeps' bunnies with a texture folder called Sweater, which I think added a nice bit of interest to this wee basket of goodies. I added the eggs at staggered heights and depths for a bit of dimension. The basket I adhered to the paper, pulling in the sides slightly, so it bowed out.
