Egg Week 2025 Day 1

Hi there!

I can’t quite believe that Easter is next weekend! Even though it’s very late this year and we seem to have been waiting for it forever, it has still snuck up on me a bit! So I hereby declare today the first day of LucieG’s Egg Week 2025! Today I’m also playing along with this fortnight’s  Color Throwdown challenge which has a fabulous spring combo of lavender, mint green and yellow.

I’ve had this card idea in my head for a while. I started with a panel which I blended with Pumice Stone, intensifying the ink coverage towards the bottom. I then cut this with my new The Greetery  Diamond Ribbons die and adhered it to my card base.

I cut and coloured Poppystamps’ Folk Decorated Eggs using distress ink (Squeezed Lemonade), distress oxide (Shaded Lilac) and Pinkfresh ink (Mint). I often find the name of purple inks to be a little misleading so tend to match colours using my eye for this challenge. Sometimes the CTD team members mention what inks they use and that is VERY helpful (thanks dear Broni!).

The sentiment is from a set by Simon Says Stamp.

Thanks for stopping by!

LucieG.
