Mixed Media Monthly Challenge #22 - Inspiration Photo

It's time for another challenge over at the Mixed Media Monthly Challenge Blog. This month our theme an inspiration photo. Just make a project based on anything that inspires you about our "Eggs" photo.

Our sponsor this month is Waffle Flower Crafts. They make really cool, versatile stamps and dies for paper crafting. Our guest designer is Tessa Wise from the Waffle Flower Crafts design team. Our lucky random winner will get a $25 gift certificate to Waffle Flower Crafts!!

For my project I used some wooden eggs that I've had for years now, gelli print papers, rub-on and spray shines.

These are my wooden eggs.
You'll see after this photo I found a smaller one also. 

These are the Gelli Print Papers I used.

I cut the papers into strips and used
DecoArt DecouPage to adhere them to the eggs.

I decided they needed a little something else so I finished them off with
some white butterfly rub-ons by Maya Road and they sprayed them with
Mint and Teal Heidi Swapp ColorShine Sprays.

Here are the final eggs. I really like how they turned out
and I love that I was able to use my Gelli Print Papers.

Unity Friends with Flair Friday

This is my Unity Friends With Flair Entry. I'm starting on the backs of my Faber Castell Design Memory Craft chipboard mini journal pages. I used DecoArt Decoupage to cover the background that was a little stained. My napkins were 3 ply, so I took out 2 of the layers and only used the layer with graphics. Since napkins are such thin paper you can see through them and little bit of the pink that was on the journal page shows through which give the background a little more interest. I took some pictures while I made this.

This is the original napkin and the my journal board with some pink stains.

After I tore up the napkin and decoupaged it on the journal board.

I used a Unity Itty Bitty Stamp set called "Wonderful". I colored in the border of the circle with Distress Markers in Seedless Preserves and Fossilized Amber. I stamped with Versafine Archival Black Ink. I adhered the bird in the circle on the board with foam tape. It was another fun and easy mini journal page. By the way, I got these pretty napkins at Tuesday Morning. Thanks for stopping by!
