it's EAD designs day!

and i could not be more excited! but what exactly *IS* EAD designs day, you ask? it's a brilliant idea that amy tsuruta came up with, in which those of us who loved (and hoarded!) the amazing and versatile stickers and rub-ons formerly made by the late, great EAD designs, would come together and show them off again. sound like fun? i thought so! so here's what i made:

(stickers: EAD designs; patterned paper: studio calico, crate paper, making memories; heart gem lines: recollections; adhesives: staples brand gluetape runner, 3m foam tape, sewing machine)
yep, it's a christmas card, made with my favorite EAD baubles. it's pretty minimalist, too, for me, isn't it? but then, the EAD designs are so lovely that i really hate to clutter them up. plus, i had the super-helpful starting point of the same gorgeous seize the sketch design, that all of us in the EAD tribute have used:


and now would you like to see some more gorgeous EAD goodness, and get a shot at winning some lovely goodies for yourself? well, miss amy lined up the most talented group imaginable, and there are some very lovely prizes up for grabs, for which you'll be qualified by leaving a comment on these wonderful blogs, between now and 11:59 (PST), this friday, november 8th, so get hoppin':

  1. I love the gems strands you've hung the baubles from! That's fabulous :) I said on Amy's blog that I was late to the EAD party, but honestly - I've never used rub-ons that were better. They rock!
