The last 12 months have been hard on many of us. But looking forward now to Easter 2021, I am reminding myself that “It’s not just about the chocolate!”.
Many of us have been working from home. If we have been lucky enough to still be employed. I work from home in normal times, even still I have found life a bit harder this last year. I have adult children living with me their working situations changed and spent more time at home. Finances have been tight so now we are finding other ways to make times like Easter 2021 fun and enjoyable.
As you may know I make a lot of Bath & Body products, but as markets were cancelled throughout 2020 sales declined. I couldn’t afford to be buying supplies if the sales weren’t there. So this gave me time to think about other things I like to make for family & friends that don’t cost a lot to make.
Have a look in the slideshow below of the things I have made out of paper (cardstock). Almost everything I already had in my craft supplies. The only thing I had to buy was a little extra bling.
How you can make these
I cut out all of the files with my Cricut Maker, but they can also be cut using the Cricut Explore Air 2. I also believe they can be cut on other cutting machines.
You can find these projects and their cut files on the Dreaming Tree website and app. For the Hat search Mad Hatter Treat Box and for the Egg search Egg Quisite Gift Box. Or you can purchase these 2 plus an extra card in the Easter Time SVG Bundle.
Please note these are not affiliate links and I do not receive anything for linking to these sites. I just truly love the Cricut machine and the Dreaming Tree Website.
Chocolate
So I started this post by saying its not just about the chocolate! Well if you like go ahead and fill these with chocolate. I just wanted to show how much I loved making them and what you can do on a limited budget.
Happy Easter 2021. I hope it’s great for you.
