Morning Crafty Friends,

Well,  just like that its April and Easter is upon us. I needed to make some quick Easter cards for family and friends, so I turned to my Easter stash. Finding this beautiful stencil from Pretty, Pink, Posh. 

Stencils are perfect for quick cards as you can create a card with out die cutting r colouring. Great also for back ground, scene, or the layering designs. another bonus is the price point.

Method

Line up your stencil 1 with your smooth card stock and attach with tape or magnets.

Start a the top, then work down

I choose a rainbow order.  

Place the second stencil over the egg image and line up the pattern and cover with a thin line of glimmer paste. 

Remove stencil straight away and rinse it.

Leave your eggs to dry. I leave mine over night but it takes a few hours

Stamp out your sentiment and use your shader brushes to add colours to the sentiment strip, buff off oxides to keep black sentiment visible.

I do hope you have a Lovely Easter and I'll be back next week with a little bit of die cutting.

Happy Paper Crafting
