Pastel Project

The DT for myStamp BOX was asked to create a project using Pastel colours. Well this was perfect since I needed to make some Easter cards.
Here is my card that I will probably give to my grandnephews. I need to whip up another one so there is NO fighting over it! Haha!



Here is a closeup so you can see the embossing on the eggs. I used the oval shape in the Back to the Basic stamp set to make my eggs. I just stamped and embossed on pastel scraps of pp.
