Another quick little card, which will be entered into the Challenges at Stamp TV, Happy Easter and Scrapy Land, Anything Goes!
I needed one more Masculine Easter card and here is what I came up with.
I cut 3 Oval shapes to make my eggs using the Spellbinders Classic Ovals die. I cut them from Kraft card stock. Here there is a local jingle; Brown Eggs Are Local Eggs, And Local Eggs Are Fresh. Not sure if this is true for every part of the country, but we grew up singing that little ditty. I then decorated my local brown eggs using the Gina K Designs stamp set, Lots Of Washi, inks in Marina Mist, Old Olive and Wisteria Wonder.
My basket, fabric liner and sentiment are also from Gina K Designs; Basket Blessings and Holiday Basket. Ink in Raven Black. My background cover plate die is by Papertrey Ink, Hexagon. I thought it would be that 'chicken wire' look that would compliment my theme. Card stocks; Ivory, Kraft and Green Apple. Very manly!
Hope you have an EGGStra special day!
Thanks for hopping by!
Enjoy~~
LOVE me some local eggs. We have a neighbor down the street who has chickens....brown eggs are the BEST. And so is your card. Super creative with the stamped decoration. And I love what you have done with that basket too. Plus, that hex cover die is perfect, it looks exactly like chicken wire. This card just makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteA brilliant male card for Easter! Such a clever design, love the decorated eggs in the basket! :-) xx
ReplyDeleteI love the choice of colors for this Easter card! Everybody goes with pastels, but this is one out of the box approach and I love it!
