Art Journal: Let’s Take Back Our Eggs!!!

Featuring Bird Crazy Stamps and Distress products by Tim Holtz, this is a fun page where I get to be silly again for a moment.  One of the birds is wearing the rabbit ears from the Crazy Things stamps and asking his buddies if they’ll come with him to get back “their” eggs.  These birds are so silly that they don’t realise that the Easter/Eostre Eggs are made from chocolate and they think that they’ll steal them back whilst pretending to be rabbits.

Apologies that you don’t get to see the very first step (I think the birds deleted it), but literally all I did was stick down some of the Tim Holtz tissue wrap, stick texture paste through the Blossom stencil with a spatula and cover the lot with gesso.  The rest of the background is made with Distress paints and inks.
