Talk Time Tuesday: Thank You Easter Bunny

Well it's getting closer and my kids are excited to see what sweet treats the Easter Bunny will bring.  For this week's Talk Time Tuesday let's talk about your favorite Easter memory.  This is an especially religious time of year and that usually means we are all thinking about family and those special traditions.  My favorite Easter memories involve playing on the front lawn in our new Sunday Easter best and waiting for my mom to serve a spectacular feast.
I created this fast little bunny box full of Easter M&M's yum.  I used a band aid box I purchased at my local craft store.  I used Modge Podge to adhere paper to the body and lid of box and then I used the following Cricut Carts:
Give a Hoot for the Tree
Winter Woodland for the Bunny
Plantin Schoolbook for the Grass
I used foam tape & embossing folders to create depth.  I also used Distress Stickles on the tree.
Now for our Winner for last week's Talk Time Tuesday:
Chosen with Random.org

WOW!!! Thank you so much! I can't wait - more PAPER!!! I am emailing you my address now...

And I think my favorite Easter memory is how my mom always made us a new outfit for Easter. My sister and I got cute dresses, and my brothers and Dad got new shirts. Money was often tight, but she always found a way to make it happen. We looked forward to it SOOO much!

Thanks again!

Cute box! Never knew that kind of box was called a band-aid box. I learn something new everyday. Thanks for sharing.

My favorite Easter memories are the ones my family is making now with the little ones....Easter egg/basket hunts in the house because it's snowing outside....camping at the dunes with friends and family.....kids loving the Easter Bunny, from a distance!

Love the idea of using the band-aid box...gave me an idea to use empty mocha containers....

Thanks!

Cute idea! I've used the boxes for other things, but never for Easter. I'll have to make one up for my husband!

This is such a great idea, not to mention absolutely adorable. I love it and am thinking I may have to dig some of my tins out. Thanks so much for playing along with us in The Sisterhood of Crafters for our Easter Challenge.

This box is beautiful! I love the bunny! I'm going to have to find some of these band aid boxes!
My favorite Easter memories as a child were going to church then to my grandparents for a wonderful dinner and a special egg hunt where my grandfather would fill the eggs with little slips of paper with special trips written on them (like a fishing trip w/ PopPop, McDonald's or to the nickel/dime store with Gramma)! We didn't miss the candy because it was so exciting to win the special days and even better having them! After the hunt my grandfather would take all of the grandkids to the movies and give the adults a free afternoon! My new Easter memories are the ones we are making with my children!
