This week I am working with
The Egg Wreath from The Cutting Cafe. What a wonderful file. I had a lot of fun with this file. I hadn't done any paper piecing in a long time so this is the process I used for my creation. Heavy picture tutorial ahead...
|
I started out just coloring the eggs. Had a light bulb moment and decided to paper piece the eggs. |
|
First thing I had to do was cut apart all the eggs. |
|
Here is how I cut them apart. |
|
I used Judikins Gold Embossing powder for the polka dotted eggs. |
|
I also used Ranger Perfect Medium Bullet Embossing Pen. This worked great to color the dots on the eggs. |
|
Just the process of embossing. |
|
Here is how it turned out. |
|
I found this little box at St. Vinnies on one of my many trips. It's like a treasure hunt! |
|
The box was the perfect size to hole my Washi Tape rolls. So I picked out 2 rolls for each eggs. |
|
Here is a red one. |
|
Here is a green one. |
|
I now have two washi tape eggs. |
|
So far so good! |
|
I decided to make the bunny fuzzy. So here is the felt scraps I dug out of my sewing stuff. |
|
I used my beading hemp cord for bunnies whiskers. |
|
The bow middle is lime green glitter paper. The actual bow is silver mirrored paper. |
|
A little yellow felt nose, glued on whiskers and my little bunny face is complete. |
|
Here is the completed wreath. |
|
Just a little closer picture. |
I next decided to make a bag to put the wreath on. I visited the freebies from
Dreaming Tree Svg's. This is the link. I used some Bazzel cardstock embossed with lighter green dots to construct the Mini Daisy Tote Bag. So here is the final project...
|
I put spring paper from my stash for the background of the wreath. |
|
This is the beauty shot. The eggs were made by my daughter in 4th grade. (~some 30 years ago) |
I hope you have enjoyed my picture tutorial. Now I just have to learn how to use the video camera my girls gave me. I just might have a video sometime in the next century!
Bright Blessings until next time,
Awesome egg wreath and love that you cut it apart and used Washi tape. What a brilliant idea. It went together so well and I love the different tapes.
