DD7ABC22E eggshell mosaic 1
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: lacyquilter

 This is my 1st card for the alpha challenge round 7 letter E. I used eggshells to make a mosaic background. Although I didn't follow the tutorial step by step, the result is much the same.

This is amazing Melody! Now that is what I call upcycling! I didn't know about the tutorial to turn egg shells into art! Amazing. I love the colors you used, so vibrant and pretty. After studying your card for a while, I decided that you cut your leaves out with the deckle scissors. What a fabulous idea! Beautiful!
