It's Saturday and the sun is shining! I have been ironing since 6 this morning trying to kick start my mojo! I have commissions to finish and new ones to start, DT cards to make and some demo pieces to put together for a demo day I am doing in May (my first ever in a local craft shop!!eeeek!) but I have no inspiration right now! I am going to do a few more boring chores and take a trip to town to buy summer school polo shirts for my boys and hopefully I will be able to sit down and craft this afternoon...
As you know, Saturday is CES Challenge day and this week the lovely Sue has chosen the theme 'Spring Colours' which is perfect for the weather we are having and a good opportunity to finish off last minute Easter treats.
For my project this week, I have embellished a large egg box and filled it with yummy eggs. I used the Whiff of Joy 'Delivering my Heart to You', and added a little line in the middle of the heart to transform it into 2 eggs!
I used plain pink cardstock and Echo Park Springtime papers to decorate the box and coloured my stamped image with Promarkers. I added glossy accents to one of the eggs and glitter glue to the other one. I also added a few flowers from my stash, a heart shaped button and the tag is tied on with purple button twine from The Ribbon Girl.
I thought I would finish with a calorie free shot of the eggs! It has been torture for me making the Easter gifts this year as I am on a diet so no chocolate allowed!
I hope you will be able to join us for this Challenge for the chance to win a £10.00 voucher for Crafty Emma's store, make sure you check out the Challenge blog for all the details and some wonderful inspiration from the DT.
Have a lovely Saturday and a great Easter.
