Easter Tree

Like almost everyone out there, I am ready for Spring.  The idea of an Easter egg tree popped into my head and the only problem was that I did not have any "egg" stamps.  That was until I turned the leaves and wings from PTI's Everyday Button Bits into eggs. 

My card uses sketch #105 from Card Patterns.  All that distressing is for PTI's Distressing Edges Make it Monday challenge.  Plus, I am playing along with Desert Islands Crafts Challenge #3 - I took the following 3 from the itinerary:  a square card, distressing, and no sentiment.  You have to go check out the full list for Desert Islands - the challenge is a recipe of sorts, but you only need to choose 3 items.  Fun, fun, fun!!!
Smiles,
Julie
Details: Stamps- Falling Leaves and Everyday Button Bits (PTI), Ink - SU and PTI, CS - PTI, Button - PTI, Embossing folders - Swiss Dots (Cuttlebug) and Plaid (Sizzix), Punch - Martha Stewart, Twill - PTI and embroidery floss - DMC.
