Bird Crazy Easter Card

As promised, here is the Easter card I made for the Ranger Ink Booth at CHA this year. It was made with Specialty Stamping Paper, and lots of Tim Holtz Distress Ink.
I inked over a piece of Specialty Stamping Paper with a lot of Spring colors.
I flicked water over it...truly my favorite way to use Distress Ink.
I dry embossed the piece with the Retro Circles Texture Fade, and inked the edges.
I inked more paper, stamped the birds, accesorory ears, and the egg on it, as well as a clean sheet, and die cut them. The sentiments were inked on the same paper. I die cut the fringe with the Kraft Core too. I colored in the ears with a Tattered Rose Distress Marker.
 
Stay tuned, as I have a few more Easter projects to show you this week. Until then, enjoy your Easter week! 

Supplies:

I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!
