Bella Basket…Big Shot style! Plus bonus Tutorial
The Big Shot excitement is huge in Stampin’ Up! world and I’ve had a chance to make some lovely projects with mine! I have to say that before we carried the Big Shot, I didn’t own a cutting system. When I receive it I figured when I made my first basket…I better just take photo’s and share with you how to create it!
Here’s the "Bella Basket" I made and it only took minutes to make! Can you imagine this same basket using different holiday type paper? Picture Halloween, Christmas, etc….so many possibilities!
