An Easter Basket filled with decorative

eggs that are too pretty to eat.

I always thought it was silly to make real eggs beautiful when they would

be destroyed later.

These eggs are Paper Mache' and Plastic,

covered with handmade papers, covered with gold leaf, or just painted.

Egg Stands

Cut and stamp strips of cardstock,

stamp and stipple inks.

Add tape on inside to shape into a circle.

The chenille stem arms and legs

allow the bunny to hug the egg.

Stamp Bunny #3286

on matte white cardstock.

Color with colored pencils.

Tear small pieces of mulberry paper and decoupage onto plastic egg using

Mod Podge Matte.

On a separate piece of mulberry paper,

stamp message with Versamark or embossing ink, and emboss with Pearlustre EP.

Decoupage onto covered egg the same way.

This Plastic egg was simply painted with Lumiere paints,

then stamped with Brilliance inks.

Decoupage egg with mulberry paper, then stamp, and color image on another piece of mulberry with colored pencils.
