Sweet Friends! Happy Easter! He is Risen! My best wishes to you and your loved ones as we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord!
I spent a blissful yesterday amongst sweet friends at a wonderful stamping meeting. I have the blessed fortune of being in a club of wonderful women who have gathered each month for over nine years. My precious friend Nancy is a CTMH representative and she emails us and tells us how many pieces of paper to bring and then we show up and get busy while we have no idea what we are making. You can’t know how rewarding it is to show up and be the student. Yesterday, Nancy sat us down with a paper cutter and called out sizes for us to cut and this is what we ended up with. Can you believe it??? As she would say, and I wholeheartedly agree, this is stinkin’ cute!! What an appropriate gift for a little one today. It contains just enough chocolate to remind you of how much you like it but not as much as a diabetic Easter Basket, lol!!
This little box holds two Ghirardelli bars and eight chocolate nuggets. Unfortunately I don’t have instructions to pass along because I didn’t design it, but I could not resist sharing it. I’ll certainly add it to my repertoire for gift giving time. The papers I pulled were Colorbok, Flea Market and some Bazzill Paper. I don’t always make the right choice when I’m working blind on a project, but this time I think I got it right.
Oh this is just breath taking. Oh what little girl would not want that in her Easter Basket. Oh would she share her directions???
Many Happy Easter Blessings to you too dear. Hugs!!
This is such a cute gift. Would love to make it. Will you be sharing the tutorial?
First, your bows were awesome and thanks for the ideas. Second this box and chocolates are fabulous, what a fun idea and wonderful day you had. My friends DH made us all bow makers off your’s and they are fantastic, he used a lot more pegs but we can just take them off so it works great. Thanks so much for the instructions.
What a beautiful creation! and Happy Easter to you!
Adorable! Happy Resurrection Day.

What a lovely basket and an excellent choice of DPs. So very vintage. It oozes with sweetness. Happy Easter, Becca.
OoooooooooooooooooooooooH WOWEE Becca!!! What a beautiful gift!! I would love to know how you made it. It would make a lovely gift ide for , birthdays and Christmas. Absolutely beautiful!! You are such a talented lady Becca.
Love Sheila xx
That is precious. I agree you are fortunate to be with such talented friends. Happy Easter. I imagine every holiday is painful for you but it will get better.
How sweet this is. Love your paper choice. What fun that must be to go and have no idea what you are making and come home with a work of art.
Happy Easter Becca
Oh my gosh – it IS stinkin’ cute! The creativity the comes through this blog is mind boggling. I know how dear these club meetings can be. It’s so fun to be able to step outside of the box even if just for a little while, and share fun and laughter with others. In my mothers day, it was quilting bee’s. It’s always something to look forward to. I’m glad for you that you have that opportunity.
Yes – Christ is Risen! And a very blessed Resurrection Sunday to you and yours.
God Bless
Up from the grave HE AROSE with a mighty triumph over His foes! Happy Easter Becca and this little basket chest is adorable.
Happy Easter to you.
I just adore this box with chocs. What fun to make. I hope you are going to be able to share the instructions with us, I would love to make this.
Happy Easter! What a promise our Risen Saviour has given us.

Have a blessed Easter day remembering what all Jesus done for you. Truly incredible! And THANKS for sharing this project. But how could you do this to us and not have instructions to share when you knew we would want them!! I would love to give each one of my friends something so cute and sweet.
Happy Easter Becca. You have brought many happy days to me when I open your cards and see the beauty and hard work you did to created all your beautiful creations. This is a beautiful box. God bless.
Oh my gosh, that is so Beautiful! You are so right, you picked the perfect paper for an unknown project. I pray that I too can be in a stamping club but living so far out in the country it’s not likely, maybe if I put something up on the bulletin board at church I could stir up some interest.
Thanks for showing us your great project…
And a Happy Easter to you also. Enjoy your day.
Such a pretty box full of goodies. Edna B.
wow.. This is stunning.
Darling little gift box. Easter blessings to you.
Bless you on this most Wonderful Day!!!!! He Has Risen!!!!!
What a perfectly delightful box, and in my favorite colors. I do wish, and hope that your friend Nancy will share the dimensions and “How To’s” for this treat box. May your day be blessed with friends and family.LOL Kathleen
I hope you have wonderful blessed Easter. We are so lucky that Christ died to give us salvation. What a great project. Do you think your friend would share the directions.
Happy Easter to you too!
What a darling box! Love the paper and lace trim on it.
It is so “stinkin” cute!
Beautiful is really more like it!
Wow… it is so pretty with chocolate, what more could a girl want?
Hugs, Dawn
It’s absolutely beautiful. Happy Easter, Becca!!! May the promise of Our Risen Lord guide you and give you strength throughout your life.
Sounds like you have a lot of fun with the ladies in your group.
I think thats an awesome idea–its always a surprize for you!
Happy Easter, Becca. I’ve got to run and prepare lunch for
everyone, but couldn’t miss popping in here to see what you
had waiting for us (I knew it would be special, as always).
I just love this little box you were truely blessed yesterday to be among friends and make such wornderful things!!
Oh my goodness, how SWEET and beautiful!!!!! I would say you picked the perfect papers! Would love to make one or two of these, if Nancy wouldn’t mind you sharing the directions. Please, pretty please? :) Happy Easter to you, Becca!
would love to have instructions on that box it’s too cute
oh my, I love the box! The vintage rose patterned paper is totally awesome and it looks so beautiful sitting on a gift box!
Oh my goodness but this is beautiful!!!! I would love to have directions – I’m wondering if you could tell us the name we might be able to look up directions on Splitcoast Stampers???? Just gorgeous! Wishing you and your family a Blessed Easter.
The little purse is so cute. Do you think your friend would be willing to share the pattern I would be willing to pay for it. My Granddaughters would each love one. Thanks Ann
Happy Easter!! This is adorable. I would love to make this for my grandchildren. Maybe your friend will share the directions or a link. I’ll keep my fingers crossed! Have a blessed day!
Bonnie
Your wee purse is adorable. Would your friend consider selling her pattern? My granddaughters would love these. Thanks for sharing. Ann Lind

Happy Easter Becca and all you girls on here.
That box is beautiful and apart from Easter it would also be lovely for a gift to take to someone who has been unwell with a face flannel and some soaps etc. Wel done and your paper choice was just right!
LOL Eileen
He has risen Alleluia! Happy Easter Becca and to everyone. Becca you have taken back to the age of 6 years old—I remember getting a purse like this all in white with pink bows for my Easter dress-hat and white gloves–this is beautiful—Thank you for another great idea and for taking back to some cherish memories. Have a wonderful Easter and may He continue to bless you. Raquel
How darling I love it. I love the colors you picked not knowing what you were making. (I remember doing that for a quilt one time how scary is that?) Really precious present for that special person. Thanks for sharing. Happy Easter.
What a lovely treasure box. I do hope Nancy is willing to share a guide to make this.
~C8>
Great project Nancy and Becca! Love the addition of the lid, closure and handle. GENIUS way for Nancy to plan a class get together I must say. Would Nancy happen to have a website to share with us? I Would certainly purchase this tutorial in a second!
That would make this diabetic a happy little bunny for a while!
Happiest of Easters
Beautiful box. I know just the person this would be perfect for. I hope your friend will share the “how-tos” with us soon. You always know just which papers to pick to go with an unknown project. Have a blessed Easter. {{Hugs}}
Happy Easter Becca,
Your little gift box is so cute, who wouldn’t love getting one of those. The ideas are endless of what could go inside.
I hope you are able to enjoy this special day with family or friends.
I would love to have the instructions for this candy box.
Ooh this really IS stinking cute. And I really loves these paers for it. So from not knowing, what to make, you sure did a perfect choise, I must say. This is sooo beautful and as always sooo well made.
Have a wonderful and blessed Easter to you too hun.
He has risen indeed!! Happy Easter. Lovely box / I think it’s great you sat and just trusted her directions -.what fun.
Blessed Easter to you sweet Becca. I pray your day is filled with joy and friendship. You are always a blessing to me. :)
What a beautiful project Becca. I am glad that you were able to spend time with your sweet stamping friends. I know that I treasure the time I spend with my stamping buddies. A true gift from our Heavenly Father.
Hugs and Love,
Deb
This project is beautiful! Happy Easter!!!
May you also receive the blessings from the One who lives. This is the highest, the apex of all we have or will ever have…a place with our Lord. This gift, so freely given but ignored by too many…what a forfeit for a worldly life.”I serve a risen Savior; He’s in the world to day, I know that He is living, no matter what men may say… He lives, He lives, Christ Jesus lives today…He walks with me and talks with me, along life’s narrow way, He lives, He lives; salavation to impart. You ask me how I know He lives…He lives within my heart.
You are such a blessing to me.
Love ‘n God bless,
Jeanielou
Hi Becca! Happy Easter! He is risen, He is risen indeed!! I trust you’re having a blessed day. What fun to meet and create with friends. Cute as can be!! I want one ; ) Iris, Saved by Grace
Wow! This Easter purse, box, goodie holder is ADORABLE!!!!
How Blessed you are to have so many good and fun friends.
Happy Easter May God Bless you and your family.
This is so stinkin’ cute! Is there a chance your friend might share the instructions on how to make this?
Easter blessings to you!
I agree, this is an adorable little project, and WHAT FUN to simply have measurements called out to you to cut, with the surprise project gradually coming together before your eyes. It makes me want to organize something similar for people — thank you so much for telling us about it!
HE IS RISEN INDEED!!!
oh you are so right – it is too cute. what a great gift for a little girl with little drawers for all her treasures. yes, please do include instructions for this.
Thank you so much for sharing. This is wonderful (so is the chocolate!!). You definitely got it right. I know you had fun and this is an awesome project.
Happy Easter WOW I love the box it is breath taking. Your friend is very talented. If one day she would be willing to share instruction we all would love it.
Dearest Becca,
Happy Resurrection Day to you Dear Sister in the Lord. WOW…what a beautiful creation…I think eveything your hands touch is anointed to create a masterpiece. I cannot see you creating anything that is not just knock down beautiful. I am so blessed by your talent and you are the reason that I am spelled by spellbinders nesties. May you be blessed by His
Spirit and touched by His Love today and always…..Bunny Hugs from Martinsville, Virginia….Wanda ;=)
How cute!!! What a great idea for next year! Please tell Nancy she’s got a cute project there and a lot of us are dying for the directions. If she has a blog or website I’m sure I wouldn’t be the only one to visit. Blessed Easter.
Talk about stinkin’ cute…..this is adorable, you must have your friend allow you to give us her link for the directions. Also want to wish you a Happy Easter along with all the other girls. May you have a blessed day.
Love to all…….Hugs
I discovered your web site by looking through Verve stamping site. You have truly inspired me with the use of ribbons and bows. Thank you for sharing your tutorial on the wooden bow maker, I had my husband make me one too. I had a retail rubber stamp store for 7 years and closed it 11 years ago. Through lifes changes I had’nt been stamping again until the past 6 months. I felt truly inspired by looking at your postings of your cards and comments. Keep on doing what you do you are reaching out to others. Your latest posting of the pink little box is so precious. If you or your friend would share the how to on this let me know. I would even pay for the pattern and instructions. How much fun you ladies must have had that day creating those little boxes! Warmly, Cindy Durgan
Becca, Might it be possible for you to obtain the instructions for this precious little box and pass on to us? It’s adorable and could be used for so many different things. Thanks again for the wonderful things you put on your blog. I am always anxious to see what you have. Honestly I ask myself time and again where would I begin to be able to create like you do. That is why I’m so glad that you share your creations with us all.
The very best of blessings to you this Easter.
This is gorgeous Becca! Put me on the list as another who would love directions from your friend. I’m going to definately put this on my lis for things to do for christmas presents. Happy Easter
I just love this project! The papers and color are just perfect! A Happy Blessed Easter to you!
Oh, how precious! Your web site with your samples and comments are so inspirational. You have inspired me to try creating with more ribbons and bows. Purchasing spellbinder dies and shown me creative ways to use them. I found you through browsing Verve stamps and looking at other designers too. Please conintue doing what you do. You have reached out to many of us who need what you are willing to share. Thank you again for sharing your bow maker, I had my husband make one up for me also. If by chance you and/or your friend will share the above little box pattern and directions please let me know. I would also be willing to purchase the pattern w/ the directions, too. Warmy, Cindy
He is risen indeed! Alleluia! Happy Easter, Becca!!
What a beautiful project!!
Gorgeous Becca, Happy Easter.
I agree… this is too stinkin cute!!!
I don’t think it is possible for you to make something that is not stunning. I cannot tell you how much I look forward to seeing your projects. I think finding your blog was a blessing. Thank you for being so unselfish and sharing so much with the stamping community while asking for nothing in return. Happy Easter.
You are so clever!! May you have a blessed Easter with your family and friends.
so neat to have that fun time to play with friends, so glad to hear you have that, and what a darling project you walked away with, so sweet!
He is Risen! Happy Easter Becca!
I have a sense you will figure out how to make this again and end up sharing with your online students! LOL! It is too cute not to!
OMG…if you could pass along the instructions, after getting permission from your friend..that would be wonderful. This is so “dog gone cute” I have to make it for end of year presents for my 8th graders teachers. I hope you can get her permission!
Love it!
Happy Easter Blessings!
Oh , how adorable…… Happy Easter to everyone and may we all remember how much our precious Lord went through so that our sins would be washed away and that we may some day be with Him in our eternal home as we accept Him into our hearts and are saved …….. Thank you Jesus……
Lovely, Lovely, Lovely Little Box! So happy you enjoyed the class…it’s always fun to ‘just show up’ and come away with a goodie!
He is risen…he is risen indeed!
Happy Blessed Easter Becca,
Jan Castle
This is so adorable and I love the papers you chose.
I hope you had a wonderful and blessed Easter!
This is too cute. I hope your friend will post or let you direct to a tutorial on this project. This can be converted to many occasions of gift giving.
OMGosh Raquel reminded me I got a purse simular to this as a child, mine was also white with pink bows and had a hiden drawer in the bottom, it also matched my Easter dress. Wonderful warm memory. I agree… this is too stinkin cute!!! The papers and colors are just perfect! Not knowing what you are making sounds like a ton of fun, you are blessed to gather with such talented friends.
He has risen and we are blessed!! Happy Easter.
Many Blessings Bernie
Happy Easter Becca! The candy box you made is wonderful, great job!
Have a wonderful week.
-Maryellen
HE is risen! HE IS RISEN INDEED! Thanks for sharing your gift box with us. Hope you enjoyed your day. God bless.
ADORABLE! I hope you can share the tutorial with us. It’s precious and so different from other things I’ve seen.
omg – absolutely wonderful. Hopefully, somewhere along the way we’ll be able to access the instructions for this fantastic box. What a great gift for anything you want to tuck in. Happy Easter!
Oh, Becca, thank you so much for sharing this beautiful item with us. It would be so lovely if your friend could be persuaded to share the design details. It is so wonderful, and would make a very special gift – not only for chocs!!
Here in Australia, Easter is behind us, but may you be filled with God’s richest blessings as you continue to celebrate His life and resurrection!!
Wishing you and yours a very Happy Easter, Becca.
Happy Easter to You, and He is Risen Indeed! This is REALLY adorable! I so hope you will be able to post a tutorial for it or maybe can link us to your friend’s directions. Love it!
Praise God and Happy Easter.
Love this darling box and I agree it would be lovely to have the directions.
I have a new Granddaughter due any day and I would love to make one for her and put a few cherished gems in the box for her.
And please where do you find your beautiful pearl brads?
Thank you.
That box is adorable! I would sooo love to have the measurements and directions :)
That’s darling! Thanks for sharing.
He is Risen Indeed!
What an adorable box! (And stinkin’ cute.) I love numbers, so I just might try and figure this one out.
Isn’t it wonderful because of God’s gift, you have the promise of seeing John again?
I think you chose perfect on this project! Maybe you could convince your friend to pass along all the measurements and directions – or if she has a blog to post it and we could check out her site for instructions? If this happens I would definitely like to know because I love the container and would like to try making one. I hope you have had a wonderful Easter.
This project looks very similar to a project posted on my blog on Jan. 28, 2010 called the Candy carrying Case. I do have detailed instructions for the project if anyone is interested. I like the paper used to make this one along with the fabulous flower, too!!! And, of course, if Becca made it – it’s always fabulous!!!! Thanks for sharing!!! Love it!!!!
hugs,
Patti
Happy Easter..what a cute little box you made!!
How cute! Happy Easter Becca.
Oh WOW!!! I just love it!!! I think it would be a ton of fun to “show up” with required supplies for a “blind” project…How intriguing??? It sure does sound like you do have a fabulous group of “friend”
Happy Easter Becca and many Blessings,
Valerie Martin
So sweet! Does your friend have a blog with the directions? I would be so grateful for that info. Happy Easter to you too, Becca!!
