More Easter creations...

Using the stamp set my sister bought me (Cavallini) last year... I was deep into more cards today!
I just really love birds and the eggs are perfect for Easter!
The colors are Stampin' Up's new BAJA BREEZE and CLOSE TO COCOA. I stamped the image using CHOCOLATE CHIP ink and then colored in the eggs with a light blue marker. Then I used the CRACKED GLASS TECHNIQUE to make it look old. Raised the image using two dimensionals...
The Background is speckled using a STIPPLE BRUSH and CREAMY CARAMEL ink refill mixed with a little water. You can check out the technique - FAUX SPECKLING! You can view these and lots more tutorials on my other website: www.stampinwithallison.com.

Well. I did get to make lots of cards today... and I am hoping to get around 40 more cards ready for stores by Thursday... my fingers are crossed!
See you later!

distressed edges TIP!

Do you love the look of distressed edges? If you don't have a distressing tool... here's a tip!
Go thru your take out food drawer and pull out a plastic butter knife. Use the "serrated" edge to rough up the edges of your card stock. Also... you can use the handle end to use as a temporary BONE FOLDER!
