I made my folded basket with a die from Leanne creatief:
Le crea 3-D dies/Leanne 45.0348 basket.
The basket is held together with a green star brad
and is filled it with lilys of the valley.
We have a tradition here on the first of May to give a bucket of Lilys of the Valley to people we love.
This white flower is a sign of Spring and brings health and good luck throughout the all year.
My background PP is from HOTP 4121.
The rectangle die with the birds is from Marianne Design: LR0351 "Petras Birds" .
I sponged the embossed parts and used an oval Nestabillities to cut an aperture for my folded basket from Leanne Creatief (45.034 which I filled with Tiny's Lilys of the Valley flowers( CR130. I hung the basket with brown and green organza ribbon/bow on the branch beneath the birds.
Just a few brown pearls for further embellishment.
