Easter eggs, of the mixed media, collage type persuasion

Mmmmm Easter eggs . . .
Plain plastic eggs collaged with papers from a Vintage Text pack from Altered Pages . . .

 And ready to add a shimmery coat or two of Dazzling Metallic paints from DecoArt.
Added some vintage laces and German Scrap trims (more on those at my post at Altered Pages Artsociates)--and I love that Peacock paint so much, I painted a basket, too!
Mmmmm, shiny . . . and really, how can you expect me to resist names like Champagne Gold, Mink Pearl, Royal Ruby, and Peacock Pearl???  Again, I say to you, mmmmmmmm!!!  
 This one may be my favorite so far.  :)

These look so pretty, Trisha. The blue of the basket is so reminiscent of egg shells and springtime too! I could almost believe in warm sunny days now! xx
