Be Eggstra

Hi there! I'm up on the Ink Road Blog with an after Easter card that's also fun for any time of the year. Let's jump right into how I put the card together. 
I stamped the eggs from the Eggstra stamp set onto some post it paper and carefully cut them out to make masks. 
I stamped the eggs onto the card panel and then added the faces from the Iconic stamp set to give them some character. I added the masks after I stamped the faces.
After the eggs were stamped I used the solid egg from the stamp set to give the eggs some color. From Simon Says Stamp I used Sea Glass, Cotton Candy, Lemon Chiffon, Thistle, and Mint inks. From Lawn Fawn, I used the Peach Fuzz dye ink. 
I stamped the larger egg from the stamp set and drew in some lines to show that the egg was cracked. I cut the egg out, cut it in two pieces and added foam tape behind them for dimension. 
To finish the card, I used the Wonky Stitched die from Avery Elle to trim the panel down. I added some clear sequins for some shine and went in with a white gel pen to bring the white back into the eyes of all the little happy eggs. I stamped the sentiment from the Eggstra set, adhered the cracked egg around it and called it a day. I hope you give this card a try. Thanks so much for visiting today.
