Stamping Easter Eggs!

1. Hardboil eggs, cool and dry.
2. You can dye eggs the traditional way and then stamp or just stamp and "die" with an ink pad.
3. We used Crafter's Ink to stamp and cat's eye ink pads to pounce ink on them.  Also used Staz On ink for a more detailed impression.
5. Heat set with your heat gun or put them in a pan and place in hot oven for a few minutes. 
6. Can stamp and layer as many times as you want, it adds cool textures and impressions. 
The TRICK is to use  unmounted "Clear" stamps with your fingertips.  Then just roll the stamp over the egg.  It takes a little practice to get it perfect.  If you smear it you can easily wipe off with a papertowel and try again.
