Påske egg /Easter Egg


Jeg hadde lyst til å lage ett påske egg til nevøen min,
og ettersom han er opptatt av drager og dinosaurer måtte jeg prøve å lage egget litt reptil aktig ;)
*****************
I wanted to alter a easter egg for my nephew,
and since he like dragons and dinosaurs i had to try to make it look like a reptile egg ;)

Egget står oppi en eske, som jeg har fyllt med litt sisal.
Esken malte jeg først med svart gesso, deretter festet jeg metalltape som var embosset.
Malte denne med forskjellige farger med alkoholblekk.
***************************
The egg is placed on a box, and i have filled the box with sisal.
The box was first colored with black gesso, then i attached metallfoil tape that i had embossed.
Colored it with different colors of alcohol ink.


Egget ble malt med gesso, både inni og utenpå.
Deretter festet jeg metalltape som var embosset på utsiden. 
Etterpå farget jeg inn metallet med diverse alkoholblekk.
*******************
The egg was also painted with gesso, inside and outside.
Then i attached metallfoil tape that i had embossed, on the outside.
And then i colored the whole egg with different colors of alchol ink.


Når egget var tørt, gikk jeg over hele egget med perlemor farge i alkoholblekk.
For å få det til å skimre litt :)
********************************
When the egg had dried, i went over it with the pearl ink .
To make the egg shimmer :)


Og min nevø synes det var det stiligste påske egget "ever" ;)
****************
And my nephew think it was the most awesome egg, ever ;)



Og som motsats til reptil egget, måtte jeg lage ett litt mer "dame" vennlig :)
****************
And when i was finished with the reptile egg, i wanted to make a more lady-like one ;)


Dette egget ble malt med hvit gesso først, på innsiden og utsiden.
Deretter limte jeg på gamle boksider med mod podge.
Når dette var tørt malte jeg på ett lag med Distress krakeleringsmaling.
Mens det fortsatt var vått, strødde jeg på glitter fra Tim Holtz.
Når egget hadde tørket sprayet jeg egget med chalkboard i fargen Mint chocolate chip.
*************************
This egg was first painted with white gesso, inside and outside.
Then i glued on old bookpages, with mod podge.
When this was dry, i painted on a layer with Distress crackle paint.
And while it was wet, i sprinkled on some Distress glitter.
When the egg had dried, i sprayed it with chalkboard in the color Mint chocolate chip.


Båndet ble faget med Tumbled glass og Broken china, for å matche fjærene.
***********************
The ribbon was colored with Tumbled glass and Broken china, to match the feathers.


Limte på noen gåsunger, roser og små blomster.
********************
Glued on some pussy willows, roses and little flowers.


Ønsker dere alle ei riktig god påske ♥
Klem, Maya

Happy Easter, peeps ♥
