Stampin' Up! Easter egg fun

Happy Friday! I am working on some cards for my card class tomorrow, so I will be sure to post our creations but in the mean time, I was looking at the Stampin' Up! blog and wanted to share this post with you. So creative just in time for Easter. Hope you enjoy it! See ya tomorrow!

Easter Egg Decorating: Part 1

Easter is almost here. It’s time to have crazy fun decorating Easter eggs! Hurray! The method featured here is super-easy.

  1. Decide how many eggs you’ll need; drain the yolks.
  2. Using a Classic Stampin’ Pad (US/CA), stamp an image on a white napkin and cut it out using Paper Snips.
  3. Adhere the stamped image to the clean, dry egg by covering it with a coat of Mod Podge. Let dry.


In case you’re wondering, I used the cherry blossom stamp from the Morning Meadow Hostess Stamp Set. It can be yours for free if you host a qualifying Stampin’ Up! party—but any of our stamp sets with springtime images would work beautifully. The Classic Stampin’ Pad colors used here are: Calypso Coral, Coastal Cabana, Crisp Cantaloupe, Daffodil Delight, Strawberry Slush, and Tangerine Tango.
And that’s it! I’ll be posting some other ways to decorate Easter eggs in days to come. Stay tuned!

Hey Katherine thank you for this great technique. You can always stamp your image on tissue paper and punch it out and decoupage onto the egg. Enjoy!

That's a great idea too Debbie! I might try heat embossing with wax paper too.
