Wednesday Stamper - Eggs

This weeks theme at Wednesday Stamper is Eggs. Here's my entry which has stamping in the background, although it might be a little hard to see in this pic. I got a little heavy handed with the black embossing powder in the background, so it has turned out a little darker than what I intended.... do you think it's missing anything?? I kept looking at it over and over last night, thinking it's missing something, but not wanting to get too heavy handed with it and I guess my philosophy is less is more :-) Stamps used are Collections - Dream word and Michelle Wards - GPP - splodges. Background then painted in yellow, then yellow/orange over the top of that. Circles randomly stamped in different colours, then black distress ink over the top of some webbing, which melted into the background. Clipart from the net. Seed beads used around the edge of the arch. Hope everyone is having a great day.

Don't think it needs anything Nat...just fine as it is! I know how fantastic it would look "irl", the embossing web gives great texture! Lovely colours too ;-)

Don't do anything else to it - it's fab! I had to look for the egg - I love the subtle use of it.

Nat this is STUNNING!!!!
love the seed beads around the outside, and the darkness really adds so much depth to this piece.

The only thing missing, is for the ARTIST who created it to love it as much as we all do :O)
