Elizabeth Craft Designs March Group Post - Spring Projects

  Happy Monday!

For March's Group Post it's all about Spring Projects. For this month's group post, I'm sharing this Happy Easter Egg Wall Hanging. To create my wall hanging, I've used dies from Joset Designs. Grab a cup of your favourite beverage and read below as I have a tutorial for you so that you can re-create my Happy Easter Egg Wall Hanging at home. You'll also want to make sure to stop by the Elizabeth Craft Designs Blog to check out the rest of the projects.  


To start, you'll need to choose a piece of spring looking patterned paper. Die cut the swirly egg from the Elegant Easter Egg Large out of the Patterned paper. Die cut the plain easter egg out of a piece of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Ink the edges of both eggs using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.


Die cut a 1 1/8" Diagonal Stitched Fishtail out of a coordinating piece of spring looking patterned paper. Trim the fishtail down to 3 1/4". Ink the edges of the fishtail using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam. 


From the Words 3 - Happy Holidays Die, die cut the Happy Easter sentiment out of a piece of White Soft Finish Cardstock.


Choose two of the leaves from the Trio of Leaves die. Choose two piece of green patterned paper from the Reminiscence the Book. Die cut one of the leaves twice out of one of the green patterned papers. Die cut the other leaf out three times out of the other green patterned paper.


Choose another two pieces of coordinating spring looking patterned paper. You'll also need the patterned paper that you used for the fishtail. From the Large Flower Set, die cut the small flower three times out of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Die cut the centre once out of the same patterned paper used for the fishtail. Choose two of the large flowers. Die cut one of the large flowers once out of one of the patterned papers. Die cut the other flower twice out of the other patterned paper.


Choose two of the flowers from the Small Flower Set. Die cut one of the flowers twice out of one of the patterned papers. Die cut the other flower once out of the other patterned paper.


Adhere the swirly egg to the plain egg.


Adhere the fishtail 1" from the bottom and 1 1/4" from the left of the egg. Adhere the Happy Easter sentiment to the fishtail.


Adhere the flowers together as desired.


Adhere the leaves as desired on the left hand side of the egg.


Foam square the three flower to the left of the fishtail making sure that they cover the bottom of where the leaves meet.


To finish the wall hanging, adhere some white twine to the top of the egg making it into a wall hanging.


Here are a few closeups of the finished wall hanging.




Here is the finished Happy Easter Egg Wall Hanging.
