I decided to do things a bit different this time and use all the mini bingo cards from a pack, instead of just one in the center. There aren't any pictures of it hanging in the shadowbox with cute easter accents on the shelf below because we just moved a few months ago and I have yet to hang a few things up.
I have to admit that this shadow box was a bit difficult to do, as I am not the best at mixing. I took the 'baby girl' print from a mini paper pack and inked it with the chewing gum ink so you wouldn't focus on the fact that it said 'baby girl'. LOL I used a butterfly die and punch to make some butterflies. I topped the larger butterfly with a yellow butterfly sticker and folded the wings up to make it dimensional. Now, I know a frog seems a bit odd for an easter shadow box, but my oldest son adores frogs, and there isn't a store I have gone in to that hasn't had a stuffed frog with bunny ears in their easter stuff. So frogs are spring-y. For the frog, I used a light green cardstock inked with stick candy to make it stand out a bit more from the grass underneath.

I used a punch and cream cardstock from this pack for the basket and eggs, and inked the eggs with chewing gum, soap powder, and lemon drop. I added a few mini butterflies, and also used my butterfly punch to punch out one from a yellow banner sticker. I used a variety of banner stickers on baker's twine for the "Happy Easter" and the rhinestone bows to finish them off. I have to say, I think this is my favorite one yet. Thanks for having me!
Great project. I love the banners.
