Rainbow Egg Fusion

Spring break is here and the weather is getting a bit better in Upstate NY! I was inspired by the fun colorful Easter eggs in this photo at the Fusion Card Challenge blog...

I loved the colors and shine, so out came my new Rainbow Cover die from The Stamp Market...


I cut various sets of patterned papers then pieced them together. Nuvo Drops in the colors gave it some gloss like the photos.  The sentiment is from The Stamp Market's "Have a Nice Day" set, and the cloud dies are from A Muse Studio.


Disaster did strike during the process...I chose to squeeze my blue drops REALLY hard onto scrap paper next to my card, rather than using a pin, as the bottle was plugged up. Yes, impatience (and muscle😅) led to a bottle explosion which sprayed onto my card on the top right of the rainbow (and left a pool of Nuvo Drops measuring 2 inches wide on my desk)! This card was too pretty to throw away, so I will choose a younger recipient who hopefully won't notice!
