Quickie Easter treat box

Easter is only a few days away, so if you don't have your treat boxes constructed, here's a quickie solution. Visit our Celebrations store (just a few doors down from our Mapunapuna Ben Franklin Crafts store) and purchase some pretty see-through boxes. I chose these rectangular ones with cherry blossom designs printed on them. (The one in front of the photo is how the box looks flattened.) I think the cherry blossoms work well with the Sister Stamps images which I colored with Copic pens. (Click on the image to see details.) Both the stamps and pens are available at Ben Franklin Crafts. Rather than struggling with coloring the kimonos, I paper pieced them by stamping the kimono portion of the stamp onto printed origami paper and then cutting and pasting the kimonos onto the original stamped image. I found the cutest bunny shaped graham cookies at Whole Foods and decided that they would be the perfect treat to put in my Easter boxes. Easy yeah? You can do it too! Thanks for stopping by for a looky-look at my easy Easter treat boxes. See you again...okay?
