Easter Egg Hunt Swap

OK, it is officially April 5th here in America's central time zone... so I am posting my blog for the Easter Egg Hunt Swap! Viv (standing ovation and several minutes of applause to her and her post office!!) did an outstanding job at coordinating this swap/hunt and personally I know I had a ton of fun making my eggs and receiving two in exchange! Below are the pictures of the eggs!

This first egg is one that was sent to me! The picture doesn't do it just... it is sparkly and immediately became my daughters favorite. Something tells me it's going to be hanging in her room soon! I love the soft pink chenille and the purple jewels... pretty purple flowers on the bottom and topped with purple and white trim. I might have to 'paper, scissors, rock' my daughter for it!
UPDATE!!!! I found the blogger who made my first egg!!! The Faerie Wysperer!!! Check out her blog! Thank you!
This next egg is the second one sent to me! It's a Marie Antoinette Easter Egg... Everyone should have Marie in her home somewhere! Again, my photo really misses the details. The Egg is covered in beaded glitter and adorned with ribbon, a variety of papers, snowflake like glitter and of course Marie herself! She is going in my room! There is no way my daughter is getting both! (smile)
UPDATE!!!! I have figured out who made my second egg!!! It is Lisa Kettell from Faerie Enchantment!!! She hasn't posted her blog just yet... so you're probably wondering how I figured it out... well... she signed her egg! I am a lucky person for receiving one of her lovely mixed media art eggs! Thanks Lisa!!!
After Church I will visit each blog to hunt for my egg's creators and to find out who received the two I made. Speaking of the ones I made... the following three pictures are the ones I did. Vivian chose one... although I am not sure which one she picked. Each egg was wrapped in a coordinating tissue and placed in a gift bag... Please let me know if you were the recipient of one of my eggs! I hope you liked it...

UPDATE!!!! Deb found me... she received the blue egg! You have to see her blog and the awesome skeleton bunnies who have taken this egg and wont give it back to her!

UPDATE!!!! Viv picked pink and this is the egg she has hanging in her craft room!
UPDATE!!!! Tina found me ... she was the one who received the yellow egg!

I did not participate in the egg swap because my two daughters have the artistic talent in our family. But I can enjoy all the talent that was expressed in the eggs given to you and the ones that you made. (I love the one with the rose and butterfly.
Love, Mom

I am so glad you like it and that I know who the other person is who has the egg.
