Hello!! I need to make quite a few Easter cards this year, as my stamping group is sending cards to residents at an assisted living center. So, I decided to make it easier and make some multiples. Same, but different.
I started by choosing three scraps of patterned paper. I stamped my Easter eggs on each and trimmed them out.
Then, I stamped the eggs and sentiment onto colored cardstock and die cut them different ways. I paper pieced in the patterned eggs and added stickles glitter glue as an accent. I finished the cards by doing some simple layouts using all pastel colors, and some embossing folders, too.
Supplies: I Brake for Stamps Happy Easter Eggs Stamp, Versafine Black ink, Elizabeth Crafts and Sizzix Embossing folders, Ribbons and patterned papers from my stash, Spellbinders Fancy Edge Rectangle dies, Avery Elle Wonky Stitched Rectangle dies.

have a great day
What a lovely thing to do Heidi. Sweet cards and they'll be appreciated.
These are great cards Heidi. I love paper piecing in any form and the row of eggs is a perfect stamp to have used. And what a lovely gesture as well.

Fantastic and so beautiful. I love all the pretty eggs and the embossed backgrounds are gorgeous too. Your cards are so different but all are equally awesome.

Oh, Heidi, these are so, so beautiful. The colours sing to me. Wonderful job on the eggs.
Oh, Heidi, I'm absolutely in love with this set. Your Easter eggs are stunning and so are all those pretty colours. Very create. Nice embossing. I've been embossing a lot lately; it adds such a prettiness to cards.
These are all so colorful and fun Heidi!! I love the mix of patterns on the eggs and your fun texture in the background too!! Beautifully done!! HUGS

Lovely Easter egg stamp and great way to create with different patterns.
Great idea you had to make multiple cards, pretty choices of papers!
Wow! Love, love, love these. A lot of work to cut and paper piece all the eggs, but so worth it.
Lovely set of cards, love the way you stamped on pattern paper. Popping by after linking my card in Pixies Crafty Snippets Challenge.
