Time to make my Easter Cards!
I water colored a panel of white with strokes of Bronze paint to make it
look more like the uneven coloring on an egg shell, and die cut a Nestability egg out of the panel. I cut
the top off the die cut egg using the bottom edge of the egg die.
I die cut and water colored Snow Drops and stems out of white and adhered them to the
back of the egg with tape.
I embossed the background with the Tufted
Embossing Folder from SU and then stenciled over it with the Pebbles stencil from Lavinia
using Antique Linen Distress ink and a blending brush - just lightly stenciling
over the center of the panel.
I adhered the egg and snowdrops to the panel with thick foam dots,
curving the outside edges of the egg down. I added Glossy White Nuvo
Crystal drops over the snow drop blossoms to add a little dimension. I stamped the sentiment and punched it with the Word Window punch from SU.

Your vase really does look like an eggshell! The snowdrops are lovely - quite ethereal looking against the softly patterned background. Thank you for joining our Spring Flowers theme challenge at As You See It.
I love how you've done the vase/egg on your beautiful Easter card Julia x. Great texture from the embossing and the light stencilling looks fabulous x.
