Mixed Media Monday Challenge: Eggs

This week's challenge for the Mixed Media Monday Group is Eggs.  I had originally thought to do a collage, but changed my mind and decided to do a little egg-shaped art quilt. I worked in a few stamped leaves and words 'hope, believe, imagine' and two sterling charms. I might still take another look at it and add some pearl buttons on the branch side. It feels a little bare for me for springtime!  (click image to enlarge)

OH! And I discovered a reeeeally cool website while working on an assignment for my flash animation class! Worth a look-see.

    Lola, it is about 8 x 10. Big enough for a wall hanging or with a little ribbon a doorknob hanger!

    I just love it! It's a great art quilt. I don't think the branches look bare, but some pearl buttons might be sweet--I hope you post if you decide to add them
