The Zest || ACOT DT Blog Hop


Welcome to the A Cherry on Top Design Team July 2020 blog hop!
You should have arrived from the a cherry on top blog.
Your next stop will be Erica's blog!

Today our focus is on the new Speckled Egg color of Tim Holtz products. This is such a lovely, soft blue grey shade!

One randomly chosen participant will win a $10.00 ACOT gift certificate. You must comment on all blogs to be eligible to win.

You can also find a process video on my YouTube channel!



I chose the Speckled Egg distress oxide stamp pad and I accented my page with yellow lemons. The yellow is a lovely compliment to the speckled egg color. 

I stamped the lemons from a stash stamp and from the Catherine Pooler Sweet Life stamp set. I also fussy cut lemons from a Dear Lizzy paper.


I swiped my Distress Oxide Speckled Egg in three large stripes across a gessoed white cardstock. I then placed some ink on a glass mat with water to utilize it as liquid splatters across the three stripes.



I utilized the Tim Holtz Crochet dies for white and patterned paper sewn across each inked stripe.


I also die cut foliage from the Tim Holtz Garden Greens Sixxix dies in white and a patch of cardstock colored with the speckled egg ink.


Definitely grab some speckled egg for your ink collection - it's a great color!
