Timeless Twine's March Challenge

Hello Crafty Friends!

Today starts another challenge over at the Timeless Twine blog. This month is all about Eggs!

The rules are simple, just make something and include Timeless Twine (or embroidery floss if you don't have any) and an Egg. Pretty simple huh?

Here is my inspiration for you.



Supplies Used:
Patterned paper is from DCWV "Flower Shower" stack
Bunny is cut from the "Create a Critter" cartridge
Bunny face is from the Peachy Keen "Critter Faces" set, white gel pen, chalk
Sentiment is from the Pink By Design "Scripted Year" set
Timeless Twine in Aqua Blue, Bubblegum Pink, Lemonade Yellow, Pumpkin Orange, and Olive Green.

I made the eggs by cutting out 3 different size eggs from thick cardstock, adding sticky tape to bothe sides, and then carefully wrapping twine around.

Isn't this the prettiest twine? All of these pretty colors can be purchased here.

Now head on over to the Timeless Twine Blog and check out what all the designers have created, and be sure to link up your project too. You could win a fabulous prize!

Thanks for stopping by!
