Hi everyone, Dot here.  Today I've made an Easter card for you.  Easter seems to be sneaking up on us so I thought it might be nice to use some eggs. The eggs, swirls and spots are from ' Gather Together ' stamp set and the  feather is from the 'Birdies' set. The background was simply made by swiping card through Distress Oxide ink's on a craft sheet. Some stamping with oxides and a little white gel pen to finish off with. The eggs on the other hand are stamped with Distress Crayons! This is a super fun way to stamp and these eggs were ideal for this technique. Here is a closer look at the eggs. I chose to use 3 shades of blue crayons and then around the edge I added some dark brown crayon. They've been left plain because to me they looked beautiful just the way they are.

Hi everyone! It's Susanne here today and I'd like to share my newest Easter home decor with you. I was so inspired by the tiny houses from the Tim Holtz newest collection with Sizzix, that I designed my own houses in my Silhouette studio. I love this neutral look for my easter home decor. I cut the shapes from craft cardstock, added some old book paper with Gel Medium and covered everything with gesso. In my next step I used stamps from the Gather Together , Birdies , Antique Botanicals and Feathered Friends sets together with Archival Ink Jet Black and Coffee. I added some earthy colour tones with Martha Steward acrylic craft paint and DecoArt Media Fluid Acrylics. Of course I wanted to have a little bit of three dimensional texture, too. So I picked the DecoArt Media Crackle paste and add a some of it here and there with different stencils. You can achieve an amazing effect with the DecoArt Media Antiquing Cream. Add it all over the textured area...
