Easter Treats in Pint Containers


Check out these adorable Easter Treat Containers! I couldn't resist using the Spring Critters stamp set along with the Penelope paper pack! I created some of these at Christmas where I didn't cover the entire container. If you missed that post, you can see it HERE.



This time I wanted to wrap the label all the way around. Creating a 'label' cover for these containers was a bit tedious at first. Since the container has a tapered shape, the label needs to taper to fit it properly. After many tries of adjusting a cupcake wrapper in design space, I finally gave up and cut apart one of the containers and cut a template to scan into design space. This was my first attempt at scanning and uploading an image into Design Space. I have to say.... It was so easy!! Once I got my template created I was able to cut my labels with ease.


I used my ShinHan Touch Twin Markers to color the chick and the rabbit and then cut them out with the coordinating Thin Cuts.  I added a spring to the back of animals to create a cute bounce!

We will be creating one of each of these containers at my March Girl's Night Out Event!  Everything will be pre-cut for you.  You just color and put them together!  If you are local and want to attend here are the details:

I set the cricut to cut at 5".  I recycled an old gift card so my card is a little thick. This size worked well.   If inserting a regular card you can use 4 3/4" measurement.  "Merry Christmas" is also cut using the Artiste Cricut Cartridge.  I set the measureme...
