EASTER EGGS MADE WITH LAST YEARS NAPKINS!

So I was getting out all of my decorations a couple of weekends ago for the upcoming Easter Holiday. As I was going into the box I ran into some of last years napkins from my turn hosting the big dinner. I must have loved the pics on them and kept them for the same reason I collect scrapbooking papers. Then I had a idea...I ran out to the store and picked up some plastic eggs, large ones. And then it was magic time. You all know how much I love to create but different things like this REALLY make me happy to create.

I started by gluing the plastic egg together. I mixed a bit of water with Mod Podge to thin it out and add pieces of the napkins in it. Now, if the colors of the eggs are dark you may need to either paint them lighter or add a extra layer of white napkin. I tore apart the napkins and used just the top layer on some chipboard eggs. But you really do need to layer it on the plastic ones.

The last step after they dried was to, yes you guessed it, GLIMMER MIST!!!!! I could not help myself. And it really made a great shine to them. I hope you like all of the pictures. Please let me know if you have any questions and by all means leave me a comment. Oh, and just a thought, I used napkins with pretty pictures, what do you have lying around? It might surprise you!

NEW SPRING FUN SHOWING UP AT THE LANE!

I love happy fresh new products. Here are just some that are making their way to the shelves of Brambleberry Lane! The new flowers have the soft look of spring and the warm feel of the beach. Plus these are bigger then my normal layered flowers. they are 3" at the base plus they are 5 layers. They will work so well on a large gift tag or use all three for the corner of a 12 x 12. Trying to have a little something for everyone. The Chiyogami Paper is beautiful isn't it. I ordered some to work on a Easter egg project for the dinner table .

I am going to put a hole in the eggs and hang them from a tree branch in the center of the table with ribbon I think. Or maybe on the side board, but one way or the other they will be there and that is why the purchase of these beautiful papers. Try some yourself!

And I do love ribbon. I have a bunch that has just arrived that I will be listing over the next day or so. I try to put them on the site at different times of the day so that many different people get the chance to see them, so check back for the new ones on the way. And I will show you next time a couple of the new papers that have just arrived as well.

STICK WITH ME!

Yes I am a bit corny. I have started making STICKERS! I am in love with them. First, I started with some of the incredible images I have here. Then I have moved into my wonderful papers. I love paper and boy can you make some beautiful stickers with them. I love things that are fun for kids, but make adults feel like kids. Stickers are just the ticket.

Ok, what else is going on? I have some new journal spots coming out and I have started making my own line of Chipboard Albums. Many of my orders are arriving with the great commercial products that I search for. So sit back and don't worry, I'll do the shopping, you just create! Oh yes, and put on the coffee, because it is hard to scrapbook if it is not over coffee!
