3D Paper Trimmer March Blog Hop Easter

Welcome to the 3D Paper Trimmer March Blog Hop as we showcase Easter projects created using Stampin' Up!'s Paper Trimmer. I hope you enjoy our projects this month.

I chose to decorate one of Stampin' Up!'s cute Mini Pizza Boxes (item 144645) to create a fun treat box and I decorated it using the beautiful Pleased As Punch Designer Series Paper (item #153558) from the Product Coordination Release that ends March 31st. I love the pretty Spring colors and soft patterns that work well for this holiday.

To decorate the Mini Pizza Box, I cut a strip of 3 1/4" x 12" from the Petal Pink Gingham pattern of the Pleased As Punch Designer Series Paper. I then cut from this strip, one piece measuring 3 1/4" x 3 1/4" and 4 strips measuring 3/4" x 3 1/4" to decorate the top and sides of the box. I attached the side strips using Snail Adhesive and cut around the half circle in the front of the box with Paper Snips.

For the top of the box, I die cut a strip of Soft Sea Foam cardstock using the grass die from the Special Day Dies (item #153587) and attached it to the bottom of the Petal Pink Gingham square and then attached it to the top of the box. I stamped the bunny image from the Welcome Easter stamp set (item #151559) with Smoky Slate Classic ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and I colored the image using the Light Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends Marker and the Light Petal Pink Stampin' Blends Marker. I blended both colors to soften them using the Color Lifter. Using Paper Snips, I fussy cut the bunny image out and attached it onto the Petal Pink Gingham square using Stampin' Dimensionals.

To create the umbrella, I punched out the Balmy Blue umbrella and handle images from the Pleased As Punch Designer Series Paper using the Umbrella Builder Punch (item #151293). I attached the handle to the gingham paper with Snail Adhesive so that the bottom of the handle was hidden behind the bunny. I attached the top of the umbrella to the top of the handle with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals. For the sentiment, I stamped the image from the Itty Bitty Greetings stamp set (item #146667) with Soft Sea Foam Classic ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and I punched it out using the Classic Label Punch (item #141491). I attached the sentiment to the bottom of the box just below the bunny, using Snail Adhesive. To decorate the sentiment, I added two small flowers that I had left over from another project that were die cut using the Sending Flowers Dies (item #153589), with a Mini Stampin' Dimensional. I added a small Basic Rhinestone to the center of each flower for a touch of bling.

I love how this cute treat box turned out and it can be used for small gifts or to hold candy to give to someone for Easter. The Welcome Easter stamp set has several cute images that you could use to create a variety of designs to give to family and friends.
