Once again, I was (very) late with my Easter eggs for the neighbours' children. It's something that has been going on for at least a decade now as all the children are around the same age. There is always a race on as to who can get the eggs onto whose front door step without being caught!! you can appreciate as the children get older, the "cloak and dagger" gets upped...LOL!!
Now being Diabetic and not really doing a lot of chocolate anymore (heavy sigh), and appreciating the fact that by the time everyone gets their eggs together...there is A LOT of chocolate hopping around. This year (as in others) I went for the KISS theory. here is what my bunny kids delivered to their friends.....
I pretty much, when caught on the "hop"...just add cellophane!!! I purchased some eggs from a local (discount) store, wrapped them in cellophane, added a 3mm red ribbon, a Designer Label Punch with a sentiment and I was good to go. There were a couple more bundles done than photographed....but one can only see so MUCH chocolate on one day....can't they??
I think they turned out OK for less than 15 minutes work....don't you??
I hope you all continue to have a happy and creative Easter/ANZAC break. I actually have a lot to post, so please feel free to pop back regularly and see what I have been up to.
Stuff used:
CS: (SU) Whisper White
Ink: (SU) Not Quite Navy, Cherry Cobbler
Stamps: (SU) Teeny Tiny Sentiments
Punch: (SU) Designer Label Punch
Other Bits: 3mm red satin ribbon fm stash

Happy Easter my friend. I too reach for cellophane when caught on the 'hop'. Hope you're enjoying our super long weekend.

It's amazing what you can come up with ... under the stress of little time! I think these are perfect. Keep it simple ... and you won't have to live up to everyone's expectations of bigger and better each year! I left a long reply to your comment on my blog! Thanks for popping by, blog buddy! Hugs xxaxx
I am loving the idea of neighbours sharing... a bit of a strange phenonenem these days!
The kids don't care how the chocolate is wrapped, as long as it arrives.
Cheers
