Easter Candy Jar with Erin Reed........

We are doing a secret sister gift exchange for a Mommy group I belong

to; give a fun surprise to a fellow mom each week

for a month to brighten her day.  I found out her favorite chocolate

(peanut butter Easter eggs), so created a fun little candy jar

made from a re-purposed BBQ jar (I always keep my glass

jars for fun little projects like these).

I used the die 3 times in my Cuttlebug with the A, B, and C plates, 1 in the peach color cardstock,

1 in the hot pink, and 1 in cream for the front of the jar.

I used the cut out sections to fill in the parts of the egg to make it looked more decorated. 

I also used a dark brown cardstock and cut it out in the egg shape 

to back each egg, so there appears to be 4 colors per egg.

I wrapped the entire container in Kaisercraft Pennyroyale

collection papers, they have such wonderful patterns that matched  

the idea of the eggs, and I just matched the cardstock to them. 

I used one run of the die cut in the peach and cut out just

one egg and filled it in with the cream extra bits so it would fit 

on the top of the jar.  I used some self adhesive pearls to add a fun

little touch, and then wrapped everything with some twine

around the lid and the eggs in the middle.

All the wonderful pattered papers, cardstock, twine, pearls,

Cuttlebug plates, and inks can be found at the amazing

ScrapPlezier store - plus don't forget the great challenges they have!!
