Cross Stitched Eggs

 Happy Easter!!
Today I decided to add another card since my first post is
Christmas themed for our challenge at Peace On earth.
After all it is Easter, plus the fact I still have lots of new Easter
that I haven't even been able to use yet.

As soon as I saw these cross stitched egg shapes I really debated
about ordering them, but the more I looked at them the more
I decided they had to come and live with me!

I saw the sample made and decided to use bright card stock scraps,
die cut some Easter eggs then use white embossing powder with
the stamps.  But without thinking I die cute WHITE eggs, well
that certainly wasn't going to work with white EB powder.
I die cut 4 colorful bright eggs then embossed what I thought was
a white EB powder but it turned out to be a 'sparkle' powder,
so I once again cut 4 more eggs and this time grabbed the
correct powder, geesh!!

I opted to make a 6x6 square card to fit all the eggs on plus I
have 2 packs of 6x6 card blanks and envelopes I am trying to use up.
The sentiment is part of the stamp set, the little bows are from
a Christmas tag die set I have.  One of the samples had little white pompoms
on the bunnies for tails but the ones I had were too big and it was such a
cute idea too, maybe next time!!



Supplies used:

Whimsy Cross Stitch Spring stamps
Echo Park Spring Fling Paper
Spellbinders Nesting Eggs
SNS white EB Powder

Have a great Easter!!
