"Eggs"tra "Eggs"tra Read All About It!

Wow, did I ever have a creative brain freeze when I was trying to put this card together.  MojoMonday has a challenging sketch this week...at least it was for me.  Anyway, this is what I was able to do with it after playing around with different papers and ribbon for longer than I want to admit.  I am also entering this into BBTB2 "Egg"ceptional Easter Eggs and Celebrate the Occasion "Happy Easter".  The scallop and circles are from Mini Monograms, the eggs and grass are from Create-A-Critter 2.  I think there should be a rule that Easter should always be at least 3 weeks away from St. Patrick's Day.  It's just crazy how close they are this year.  I just took down my St. Patty's Day Decor last night and am trying to get my Easter stuff up.  There are projects I haven't even started yet for Easter and I only have a week and half left to get them done!  AAHH!  I will just calm down and craft on...

    I have projects like that, that drive me crazy because they aren't coming together the way I want. Love your glittery egg image. Great job! Thanks for sharing at bbtb2.

    Emily great take on the sketch and the egg-cellent challenge. I know what you mean about brain freeze; I call it losing my MOJO. Hate it when that happens. But you did the right thing - work through the block and succeed with a most egg-cellent project!! Thanks for the extra effort to join us this week at BBTB2.
