Happy Easter Everyone!
How about an eggs-tra special project to get you in the mood for the Easter Bunny this weekend ;0) I've been eggs-tra busy and I'm super egg-cited to show you my Fabergé eggs!
Have you seen the really cool Digi stamps designed specifically for use with Spellbinders dies over at Blockheads Paper Arts? They are super fun and I had an egg-tastic time using the Spellbinders Labels 18 Floral and Elegant digi frames on my Fabergé eggs. You can also get the Digi stamps free if you buy the Spellbinders dies so go check out the ones that are available! They are really easy to use, once you've downloaded them you can alter the size, add your own sentiments digitally or stamp them and the dotted outline guide makes it easy to line up the die and cut them out.
The frame in the photo above is the Elegant digi stamp and I adjusted the size to fit the second to smallest Spellbinders Label 18 die in Photoshop to 2" wide. I added the Easter Greetings sentiment in Photoshop too and printed out the design on Neenah Solar White cardstock. Die cut the image with the Labels 18 die and then emboss it with the Spellbinders tan embossing mat. I went for a yellow monochromatic colour scheme for this label and used the following Copic markers: Y11, 15, 17 and 38. I also coloured the inside border black with a Copic Multiliner and added some details and edged the frame with a metallic gold Marvy Le Plume pigment pen.
The frame in the photos above and below is the Floral digi stamp and both were adjusted to the same size as the yellow frame and I added the Easter sentiments to both in Photoshop too. I used the following Copics to colour the blue label: Y15 and 17, G21, BG02 and BG07 and edged the label in metallic gold Marvy Le Plume.
For the this label I decided to go with a pink monochromatic colour scheme and used RV10 and 13 and edged the label in metallic gold. The inspiration for this one was the result of my printer acting up. The cyan cartridge had come unseated for some reason and the first time I printed everything came out pink and I thought it looked really pretty!
