My Tilda Easter Egg Project! Loads of Pictures!!

Good Saturday Afternoon!! This is going to have a ton of pictures! My son did the photography for me and I loved all of them and couldn't decide, so there are shots from all angles!! LOL!! This is my project for the Magnolia-licious Highlites Easter Contest! It's category #3, anything but a card! I know I saw a few eggs already, but I was working so hard that I had to enter mine as well! This contest has brought out the "eggers" in all of us!! haha! I used to decorate real blown eggs and that's what came to mind as soon as the challenge went up! So I found a paper mache egg at Hobby Lobby and used my exacto knife to cut it! Yeah, they aren't paper all the way through, most of it is plastic!!!! I painted the outside a sweet pink and the inside and the shaker box a pretty blue. The whole outside of the egg is glittered in chunky glitter to give the "sugary" effect! The fence is from the Paper Doll Dress Up cartridge from Cricut, I added tiny bows from crochet thread! I used a little branch off one of my trees in the yard, painted it white and added little pearls and bows, it's hard to see in the pictures... there's also a little bunny hiding in the background as well!! Oh and the inside is also glittered up!!! There's a paper doily on the top of the box and a tulle ruffle "framing" the bottom of the egg! The box itself is covered with Easter paper, I'm sorry, but I don't know who made it, it was in my stash! The roses are Prima, the others are from my flower stash, and I added flower svaworski crystals to the centers for some extra bling! I colored all the Tildas and Edwin with prismacolor pencils and gamsol, their skin is colored with prismacolor markers! I think that's it! I hope you enjoy my project, it's so sweet sitting in my living room and Matthew and Kaitlyn love the little chocolate eggs hiding inside!!! Thanks for looking, let me know what you think!!! The stamps should be available from http://www.magnilia-licious.blogspot.com/ . If they are out of stock, I'm sure Diana can order them! Be sure to check out all the fabulous creations at http://www.magnilia-licioushighlites.blogspot.com/ They are out of this world!! Hugs, Teri
















Some little details! Tiny chicks, tiny bows and a little bunny hiding in the background!

  12. Your project is gorgeou, Teri! I wish I had more time to sit down and start something like this. It's that when I stat a card I know I have about 2 hours at the most before my little one wakes up:)) But with a project it takes some time and thought to have it done!
    Anyways, yours looks amazing and the colors are just perfect for spring ! Love it!

  27. Oh Teri, this project is amazing! I accidentally left a message for this project on your most recent card but that's OK - I love them both! In fact, I was looking around and really like ALL your projects! ... so I just became a "follower" of your blog. I don't see a box showing how many followers you have but I bet if you added it you would have quite a few people signing up! It's easy-peasy to set up. But no matter, I was able to click on "follow" right above your blog and now I'll get notification every time you post a new project. They really make me smile!

    Anyway, good luck in the contest!
