CottageCutz Focus Week - Holiday Treat Holder

Hello and welcome to our Holiday Treat Holder Focus Week. 
Vladka here today!

I decided to create something for Thanksgiving and came up with picnic basket. I created template by myself and after the base was cut out, I cut out also a looooot of stripes and weaved them together to get the look of real weave basket. I did this separate, not directly on my basket. I glued weaves parts afterwards and cut away the excess. I did the same with basket cover, which can be open on each side or removed completely to easily get the treats. After basket was finished, I distressed all sides with brown distress inks. And of course I used a lot of different dies from On the Farm release and all of them are listed at the end of this post. So, if you are interested, just click on the picture and this will get you directly to the die in Scrapping Cottage store.

And this is not all my friends. Also this time we will be giving away a gift certificate for $15.00 to shop at the Scrapping Cottage Store. All you have to do is, to comment on each post for that week here in CottageCutz blog (between 18th and 25th of November) and one lucky winner will be announced on November 28th

So, good luck!
