Easter Eggs



I know its Wednesday, but I did in fact get this tag finished last night, but needed daylight to get a photo, as the artificial light caused to much reflection on the painted egg.
I wanted to make a tag using more stitch this week, so I made my tag from craft vilene to which I bonded a paper napkin. I then FMS all around the eggs and background and zig-zagged the edges. I made the egg from tissue paper,  plasterers' scrim and PVA and when dry, filled the back with light weight pollyfilla to help it keep its shape. Embellishments from my stash.
