Friday Egg: Fiesta!

I love this little egg!  I rarely start with a white egg and end with a white background as I fear that the white outlines will not stand out against the background, but I took a chance here and I am so glad I did.  The colors are bright, vibrant and playful: just about perfect for the Fiesta celebrations going on in San Antonio this week!  And a nice segue into Easter week as well.  I hope you like it as much as I do.

Friday Egg: Protective Red Ram

Red Ram on Black Background

I like the ram motif in traditional eggs. Spirals are traditionally seen as a protection symbol and the ram has it built right in!  This egg has a lot of protection motifs:  the "wolves teeth" that encircle the vertical eternity band as well as the tiny wolves teeth within the eternity band.  I have always like the color combination of red and white. It is so strong and jaunty and cheerful with no doubts about itself.

I hope you have a lovely Friday.  The weather here is beautiful - sunny and in the 70's. I'm going to go have lunch with my husband and then come back and do a quick housecleaning for my daughter's birthday party tomorrow.  We are very happy that Scottyroo and Christini are coming to entertain the 22 cupcake-and-juice-fueled three-year-olds who will be running amok in our house tomorrow.
