It's almost time for Easter and all things round and chocolate!  At this time of year, I love to create custom Easter gift baskets or boxes and fill them with Easter Eggs.  Here is one Easter gift basket that I have created using the gorgeous Butterfly Brilliance Bundle and limited edition Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper...

Bundles: Butterfly Brilliance Stamp Set + Brilliant Wings Dies (cling: 155821).  Ink: Tuxedo Black Memento (132708).  Stampin' Blends: Just Jade (153107), Mint Macaron (154889), So Saffron (154905).  Card/Paper: Bermuda Bay (131286), Blushing Bride (131287), Basic White (159228), Butterfly Bijou 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper (156824), Vellum (106584).  Accessories: Whisper White 1/4" Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon (151326).  Tools: Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (149653), Tear & Tape Adhesive (138995), Mini Glue Dots (103683).

Butterfly Brilliance Collection (159108) - $149.75
Includes: Butterfly Brilliance Bundle (10%-off), Butterfly Bijou 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper, and Natural Touch Specialty Paper 

This gift basket is a fabulous design by Jo Blackman and is sized to fit a rather large Easter Egg!  I have decorated the outside panels of the gift basket with strips of Butterfly Bijou Designer Series Paper and finished the top edge with a ruffle of ribbon.  This ribbon is the lovely, soft, Whisper White 1/4" Crinkled Seam Binding Ribbon.  To get this pretty, pleated finish, I added a long length of Tear & Tape Adhesive right around the top of the basket, removed the tape backing paper, and then added the ribbon by pinching it and sticking it to the double-sided tape.

I finished my Easter gift basket with more butterflies because you cannot have too many!  For the large butterfly, I stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink onto Basic White cardstock and then coloured it with Just Jade, Mint Macaron, and So Saffron Stampin' Blends.  I used the Brilliant Wings Dies to not only die-cut out my coloured butterfly but to also die-cut two intricately detailed butterflies in Vellum (to overlay the large butterfly) and Blushing Bride cardstock.
