Gretchen Barron: Big Shot Bonanza Class -- Part Two

Hello everyone and Happy Tuesday! You may remember last week that I introduced you to my Big Shot Buddies for Easter and said they were just two of the four projects that customers would be creating in my Big Shot Bonanza Class for March. Well this morning, I have the other two projects ready to show you! The first one is this delightful little purse, made with the Big Shot and the Top Note Bigz Die, Box #2 Die and the Scallop Circle Die. Isn't this a darling little purse! Measuring 3 3/4 x 3 x 1 1/2", it's big enough to hold sweet treats, a lovely little gift or gift card. I've adapted an original idea that I saw on Becky Robert's blog. Using the Box #2 die for this project (and cutting off the top flaps) make this an amazingly quick and easy project! Becky has instructions on her blog so I won't repeat them here. When you purchase the Big Shot Bonanza Class-Kit-On-The-Go from me, you will receive everything you need (except adhesives) to make one of these delightful little purses (actual DSP pattern and ribbon color may vary). I've used Tea Party Designer Series Paper to make it especially suitable for Easter and Spring (wouldn't it make a great Mother's Day gift with a little something special tucked inside?).

And last but not least, here is the final project for this month's Big Shot Bonanza -- an adorable Easter basket, ready to be filled with your sweet treats! I've made these boxes several times before but when I saw the one that Christine Grygar created with a handle, I knew it was perfect for this month's projects!

The basket is made using 4 of the Scallop Envelope Dies and again, it goes together quickly and easily. It measures 3 1/4" square and it's 2 1/4" high! It's such a great look for Easter or think what a happy surprise this would be for someone on May Day (do we still do May Day? ... maybe we should!).

When you purchase this Class-On-The-Go kit from me, you will receive pre-cut cardstock, DSP and all the ribbon and embellishments to make all four projects -- The Chick and Bunny Cards, One Purse and One Basket. You will supply your own adhesives (SNAIL, Dimensionals, Sticky Strip and Mini Glue Dots), your own inks and stamps. The DSP will all be from the Tea Party Collection but actual designs and colors may vary with each kit. You will also receive detailed directions with ton's of pictures which will be e-mailed to you (PDF file) along with confirmation when your kit supplies are shipped to you. As an extra bonus, I'm also including a 6x6 Sampler of all of the Tea Party Designer Series Papers (6 double-sided sheets in all)! Those who order the Class-On-The-Go Kit by March 15th will have their kits ship by March 20th. Those who place orders after March 15th can expect their kits to ship within a week of placing the order. Cost for the Kit is $25 and may be ordered by clicking on the PayPal Button Below!

Also available now are the Detailed Directions, with pictures, for just the Big Shot Buddy Chick and Bunny Cards. Directions will be e-mailed to you (PDF file) within 24 hours of receiving your payment. Cost for the directions only for the two cards is $8. You may order by clicking on the PayPal Button Below.

Well, it's going to be another busy day so I need to go for now. I'm so glad you stopped by today and hope you'll return soon for more ideas and inspiration!

Blessings, Gretchen
