Incredible Egg Fun!

I love eggs…I clean the shells out if I am going to use them for baking or scrambling. I love the texture. I decided to create something a little different, a box made from an egg. I had to cut it in half it was fairly easy with a rotary grinder and a cut off wheel. I then used several of the products from AlteredPages including a Mailbox Muse stamp set.

Please let me know what you think of my crazy creation.

Supplies:
Egg Shell
Wood furniture biscuit from home improvement store
Muse Dragonfly Stamp
StazOn Jet Black Ink Pad
Trim  or Fiber 
German Scrap 
Glass Glitter 
Aileen’s Tacky Glue
Crystal Lacquer Mixing Mica

See you next month, Happy Spring!!

So I will continue this week with the love of the card. This is not a folded card but on that sits on the desk wide to exclaim my passion!

My card was a joy to make and I want to share all of the goodies I used to make it with you!

I have to say that my eBosser loves my Ellentina dies! So do I! I hope that the photo shows you how much beautiful detail is in the cut!

Just to show you the size of the die cuts here is an example using a coin next to the die! These dies are beautiful but you should see their architectural set!
