Simple Easter Candy Jar

April 2, 2012 by Holly Gagnon 41 Comments

Oh-I just love Easter candy and my favorite candy is Cadbury Mini-Eggs.  Since the challenge this week at Fantabulous Cricut  is Egg-ceptional Egg projects I decided to make a Simple Easter Candy Jar using these little chocolate delights since they just happen to be in the shape of an egg.
