Using a fine tipped pen and dots is ingenious! I approached my husband with my brush and ink idea…well, he didn’t say, “yes- or no…”, he just kind of winced. I know he’ll go for the pen!
Once again, your creativity overflows!

Hi Judy,
Okay, it’s been a couple of years so I did that project and wrote the post so I had to look very carefully to find out 😉 I do think it’s the PB eggs that I used for that post. It does look more fuzzy and I think if you were color it in like you mentioned using my tutorial it should work. Maybe just using dots and a fine tipped pen? Here is the tutorial on the stick garland if you need it:

Have fun creating!
Hugs, Jamie

Natural decor is always my favorite. I have a question. The eggs on the rod in the large picture, (3rd from the bottom) in this post, are they PB eggs or eggs you made using your download? The font on the eggs in the picture looks a bit more “fuzzy” or vintage to me, I love that blurry vintage look, I can even make out an errant dot here and there. If they are PB eggs, I was wondering if there might be a way to achieve that look using your download? I’m thinking artist’s ink with a fine brush? Your crafting and decorating proficiency are 100% beyond my own, but my husband is pretty steady with brush and ink. If you think that would work, I’m always up for “begging”, “prodding” or “deal-making” with him. 🙂 As always, your creativity is so inspiring and I thank you for sharing your wonderful art!
