I wasn't intending to play in this challenge, but decided to take a chance and hand-letter my sentiment after I realized that my layout didn't allow for placement of any of the sentiments I had I only had one shot to get it *write* and, I'm happy to say, this one will actually make it to the mail (rather than my *it seemed like a good idea at the time* pile)
These eggs were cut from a template I found online...or you could draw your own. I stamped random patterns of various images in different shades of brown for a sort of collaged look. This is the first time I've inked up my Setting the Stage set by My Favorite Things...I love the little flourish in the set...so sweet!
Thanks for looking!

Wow! This is so rich and elegant! Love how you created the Easter eggs, the color scheme, the ticket corners and the faux stitching! You totally nailed the handwritten sentiment too! TFS!!
Meg. I don't know why you wrote that your palms got sweaty when you wrote this. It's gorgeous. Did you do the writing on the eggs, too????? I love the tone on tone of browns.
