WT1086 Mosaic
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: Cook22

 For Lisa's WTUI challenge as we head into another new year. WT1086 - New Beginnings - January 1, 2026 by Shoe Girl at Splitcoaststampers

I went for the eggshell mosaic tutorial: Eggshell Mosaic Background Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers. It's something I've wanted to try for a long time, but the eggs I buy are all brown shells and I wasn't sure how well they would work. But a few weeks ago DH visited friends in the country and came back with some (brown) hens eggs but also some white duck eggs, so I held onto those. I followed the tutorial, and added my mosaic piece to a decorative Spellbinders frame cut from black and buffed with Inka Gold. I added a die-cut flower and a butterfly cut from black Bazzill Bling layered up on a gold one which I covered with orange Stickles. Base is cream.

What a pretty card, Sabrina! I'm not familiar with the egg mosaic technique, but it looks interesting! The die cut frame is very elegant!

Delicately sweet and so colorful - yet modern problems with the brown shells?!?

I had to go check the tutorial after seeing this -- I had no idea there was an eggshell technique. This is really a gorgeous result.

Stunning stained glass looking card. Got me intrigued with that technique. Will have to check it out.

The eggshell mosaic is such a striking way to interpret New Beginnings, especially with the mix of soft color and organic texture. The contrast of the black Spellbinders frame pulls everything into focus, and the layered butterfly adds a perfect sense of movement and renewal. The whole piece feels both delicate and intentional, a beautiful showcase of technique and theme.

Great card! I love the way your eggshell mosaic turned out. What a cool idea. And that die cut makes a beautiful frame for it.
