I made some improvements to my previous project, the Easter basket card. Mainly, I decided to mat the embossed So Saffron layer onto Baja Breeze cardbase. Second, I took a little more time and care watercoloring the eggs, adding glitter to some.
My thoughts on this project in terms of class projects or workshops:
- This is a time consuming project. It could be modified to save some time by not cutting out each egg and using an oval punch instead. DSP would look great and require no stamping.
- Also, watercoloring can take a lot of time. 4 eggs per basket looks good. If you plan on making more than 1 card per person remember, it’s 4 eggs times X number of baskets to watercolor! I did 11 cards for this swap, so that was 44 eggs!!
- It’s a great project to showcase the Big Shot Basket die, the Texturz plates, and any other dies you use to decorate the basket or the eggs.
