Video tutorial - watercoloured spring eggs. Handmade card by Debby Hughes #debbyhughes #limedoodledesign #handmadecards #cardmaking #cardmakingideas #cardmakingtechniques  #cardmakingtutorials #handmadecardideas #simonsaysstamp

Today, I have a simple card with watercoloured eggs. I love repetition, and pattern and three little eggs in a row are perfect for spring. I saw a tutorial by Sharone Stevens on Skillshare and loved the page of eggs she painted. Seriously a great tutorial and worth watching. I’ve linked all supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you. 

Sharone shows you how to use a circle die for the base of the egg and how to freehand the top of the egg shape. However, I went for simplicity because when I thought about the dies I had, I remembered the Bunny Butt Peek A Boo die set had a range of egg dies. I aligned the largest egg die three times on watercolour card cut with a Mini Slimline Rectangle and drew around with a pencil as a guide while painting.

You can check out Sharone’s class and all that Skillshare has to offer here and you can get 14 days free trial currently too.

WATERCOLOURED EGGS

I wanted to personalise this card to the eggs from my country, the UK, so I googled and found these resources. A quick google for your country will no doubt do the trick too.
