Hi friends! It's Photo Week over at Just Us Girls. Bobby chose these photos that so evokes the spring season (hoping it gets here soon!).
I wanted to make an Easter card using the photo with the eggs as my inspiration. I pulled out PTI's Etched Egg dies and die cut them from colored cardstock. I also liked the blue stripes on that saucer in the photo, so I used Broken China oxide ink and a stripe stencil and created my background. For the sentiment, I embossed it on vellum with liquid platinum embossing powder. I added Nuvo drops, but wish I had used sequins. I have to say that I'm not crazy about how this card turned out. I guess it was the two glasses of wine I had before making it (it was a tough day at school!).
You can see more from the JUGs design team and our March guest on the JUGs blog.
Thanks for stopping by!
