To make my card I created a beautiful wash of color on watercolor paper using three Ken Oliver Color Burst pigment powders: Indigo, Ultramarine Blue, and Alizarin Crimson. I used the newly released Easter Egg Set (Die395-J) to cut three beautifully "tie-dye" colored eggs. I added a gem to each one for a bit of sparkle and shine. The Easter Greetings (DIE256-N) sentiment is cut from black cardstock, and backed with Ken Oliver Stick It Adhesive, which worked perfectly for placing such a intricate die cut on the card.
Now, get ready for a wonderful dose of inspiration and check out what the design team members created for the hop. Have fun!!
