SPS - Monthly Hop and New Challenge

Yep! It is the first Saturday of the month - which means it is time for the monthly hop at Shop Pumpkin Spice, and the new weekly challenge! You should have arrived here from Tanya - if you are just stopping by, make sure and hop on over to Shop Pumpkin Spice to start at the beginning and see all of the fun creations! I also am posting the entire hop line-up at the bottom of this post in case you get lost along the way!

The challenge this time around is "Eggs" - however you want to interpret it! Here is what I came up with:

I used my Silhouette Studio Designer Edition Software to create a shadow for the egg silhouette, then cut it out with my Silhouette Cameo. 

Next I used these clear Thanks Stamps from American Crafts to heat emboss in white the sentiment and swirls directly on the egg:

I rounded a couple corners, and for the most part kept this a pretty flat, one layer, and mail-able card! 

All my pattern paper is from this Crate Paper "Random" 6x6 paper pad - still some of my favorite pattern papers:

Finished off with a couple of black sequins that I just picked up recently - been loving seeing them everywhere lately and had to join in the fun!!!

Thanks again for stopping by today! Next stop on the hop is Cheryl - I know she will have something fabulous for you!
