A daily papercrafting blog which features my handmade cards showcasing Creative Expression's products including my own line of cutting dies and embossing folders, Cosmic Shimmer, Ranger and more which use various techniques and ideas to hopefully inspire the creativity in you.
Hello crafters! I started with a piece of white card and used Picked Raspberry distress ink and used a smoothie to work the colour from the edge towards the centre of the card, leaving a lighter area for the egg. I then used the Elemental Swirl stamp and inked it with Black Archival ink and worked my way all the way around the card with the swirls. Next I cut the Stained Glass Tulip Egg outer die from black gloss card. I cut the inside egg part of the die in black card. I coloured the egg with markers but used a soft white pencil in each section to give highlights. I cut the Happy Easter sentiment in black and added it to a white shadow backing piece, then attached it below the egg. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8" x 8" in size. All for now. Sue x
