Heart basket for my Daddy's birthday

I used the heart basket from the previous challenge. I made it very big (12" wide) and did not put the handle on. I cut it out of chipboard with my Zing, assembled it and then decorated it. I have tissue paper in the bag coming out the top. I have quite a few wobbly hearts I made on the bag too.

    Awesome crafty goodness Karen! I love all the "wobbly hearts" and that birthday paper too. Can you tell us the brand of the paper? Great Job, Joe is a lucky guy.

    Thank you everyone for the kind words. My daddy lives 6 hours away from me. His birthday is this weekend so I have not given it to him yet. His eyesight is poor so he won't be able to see it very good but he will still appreciate the thought. I have to find some more things to put in it since I made it so big! He has alzheimers so sometimes he does not know me but thats OK! This will be his 1st birthday without his wife. She passed in October. He sure is lonely after 64+ years of togetherness. We are planning a big party for him. All of his 7 kids will be there and too many to count grandkids and great grandkids.

    @Rorysnonna, it is a 180 paper stack III from DCWV. The birthday paper comes in several different colors even.

    What a beautiful creation. Your Dad will certainly feel the love you put into it even if he can't see it. Happy Birthday to him.
