Free Printable Easter Egg Elfin Loves… (updated)

Hi there!  I spent all day, making you a little gift that I couldn't wait to share.  I am delighted to do so, because I think you are extra lovely & all that wonderful mushy stuff with cherries on top!

      

Elfin Egg Head 2

So, these are like little elfin fairy creatures, that you can use for any occasion, but look very very cute hugging eggs… 

Here they are on real eggs.  I had not seen a white egg in ages.  We usually only get brown or mint green color eggs locally.  I think the eggs would look lovely natural or dyed a faint shade of blue or pink…

All you need is a tiny bit of tape on the back flaps –

       

Elfin Egg Head 5
   

If you are using those plastic openable eggs to hide a tiny gift in, fill your plastic egg up with goodies, wrap it in tissue paper, and put your Elfin on the oustide, like below…

Voila…

You can even dip the edges in a little glue and sprinkle them with glitter…

Elfin Egg Head 6

Print, cut, tape, enjoy!  I printed mine on a nice cardstock, but I tested some on regular paper, and they worked just fine.

If you use these and would like me to post what you did with them, send over a couple photos, I would be delighted to share, just delighted!

I asked lovely Sarah Wallis if I could post a photo of what she did with hers…  She even used one in a card.  Fun idea Miss Sarah!  You can really use these for any occasion, don't you think?

Miss lovely Gillian and her girls printed theirs in black and white, and used fairy crayons to color them, isn't that fun??  Endless options ;)  Thank You Miss Gillian!!

Soooo, let's see, in my world news, I saw December Boys yesterday while sculpting, it was delightful.  The quail babies are not here yet, but I am waiting with bated breath.  I searched for 6 hours the other day, for some baby quail pictures I had that are squeal worthy cute.  But I can't locate them.  So now I wait for this year's batch.  I wonder how much longer ;)  "Are we there yet?"

Oh and, my lovely camera died today.  Edited – so I ordered a new one 🙂 🙂 Eeeks!

Okay, I best be off to cut some of these out myself…

I hope you like them 😉

    **sighs BIG sighs** So sweet! I am going to steal your idea of wrapping the egg for Baby Doll…cutest thing I have seen in a
    l o n g time. I found camouflage plastic eggs that I filled and sent to PFC Ryan! You without your camera is almost sacrilegious. **weeping** How will we see without your magical eyes? **blows kisses** Deborah

  13. Cori. G says:

    Oh these little Elfin faerie Egg Huggers are too sweet for words!!!! They would look darling hanging from an egg tree, don’t you think? Me too!
    I’ll be naughty and print them from work :0!

    xoxo Cori

  14. shibori girl says:

    So sorry to hear your one-eyed friend has bitten the dust! I had a similar thing happen last summer, and wrote about it here http://shiborigirl.blogspot.com/2008/07/ive-lost-that-lovin-feeling.html if you are interested.
    I’ve been going on walks with my own Baby and have taken a page from your book. Your posts have taught me to bring my camera and Pay Attention… We’ll see how long that lasts. 😉
    xoxo and have a Sparkly Day,
    Kate

  15. Cassandra says:

    Ooooh. Thanks for the egg huggers!
    Curious. What kind of camera do you use for your “good” camera?

  16. Cyberdelia says:

    Sooo cute! Thanks!! Love the idea of dressing up plastic eggs & then using these…I think that’s just the thing I’ll do! 🙂

  17. Louise says:

    Thank you, thank you, thank you, I am working on my eggs this afternoon , I am so happy that I stopped by here to see such a cute idea.
    This is going to add so much fun to our Easter egg hunt…
    Louise

  20. Kylee Ward says:

    V~
    What adorable little Easter Egg Elfins. You are the best around Miss V!!!!
    Have a lovely day!!
    Kylee
    Oh, and I think you deserve to have a shiny new camera!! (wink wink)

  21. Cori G. says:

    I just printed mine out and the colors are so sweet and dreamy! I too was wondering what type of a camera you use?!
    I have an old 35mil. with the most humongous telephoto lens that I miss so desperately. Now I just use it for gazing at the moon :).
    xoxox to you!

  22. Sarah says:

    Hi!
    Thanks for these, they are pretty! I have a little easter tree with little shiny eggs which would be much enhanced by your little faces. One is going in my Easter card to my Mum too.
    Thanks!
    Sarah x

  23. Rachel says:

    What a beautiful spin on Easter, I love them! Thanks so much for sharing, I’ll be linking.

  24. Vanessa says:

    Oh you are SO kind to share these with us! I hadn’t considered doing eggs this year since my son is not into it as a teen. But why the heck not just for myself? Anyway, who doesn’t love deviled eggs?

  25. Rhonda says:

    Vanessa-woo:
    If the Easter bunny (her?him?)self were to…ahem…biologically provide the easter eggs, they could not be any more delightfully adorable or magical!
    These are so cute, i wasnt even gonna do eggs this year (gasp!) but now I’ve got to at LEAST dress up some eggs with this perfectly cutecute present from the fanciful one & only. Thank You Thank You!!
    May your basket be full to the brim of delicious yummies that magically detract calories rather than add them!
    xoxoxox roo
    PS I think your way is not only prettier than, I am SURE its way more sanitary than, if the Easter Bunny were to provide them in the aforementioned fashion. Nuff said.
    Happy Day!

    More charming treats from the clever artist! Merci, merci, mon cher ami! xoxox

  27. Miss Vanessa, oh my…thank you for the amazing, lovely download… my eggs will never look sooooooo good! Thank you so much! WHOOOHOOOOO!
    Cheers!

  28. Hoe ADORABLE! We just dyed eggs today and i wish i had seen this before we did it! I think i might have to make another batch! Thank you for sharing such a cool spring treat!

  29. JeanFB says:

    These are absolutely delightful!! Thanks so much for sharing with us!

  30. sadira says:

    What a darling idea! I am still trying to figure out if I am going to dye eggs or just use the ones I have to make lemon curd…perhaps I will decide to do both!

  31. DENISE says:

    Thank you! Thank you!I can’t wait to use them.

  32. kris says:

    What beautiful egg wraps. The girls will love these and use them along side their Hello Kitty egg decorations. I like the idea of wrapping the eggs in tissue paper. I might try that with little wooden eggs (after they’re painted) and giving them as gifts to friends. Hope you get your camera back soon. I wouldn’t know what to do without mine.

  33. These are just delightful! Thank You so much for the time you took crating them and thank you for sharing. I was pondering a couple of tablescapes this year and I have decided this will be my color scheme and the eggs will be perched in the center on a three-tiered stand with like things. Fun, Fun!

You’ll recognize the first stop. Oh and when you come by scroll down to the bottom of the post where you’ll see an exciting announcement of my new blog, True North Arts.

  73. Ellen says:

    Your decorated eggs are so fanciful and creative. I love them. Happy Easter! hugs, Ellen

  74. Happy Easter!!!, thank you for urging me to post, and thank you for the little blogging song… I’ve finished the NYE story and added two more since you posted a comment… I’m busy trying to organise a holiday to Spain, Morocco and Portugal but one of these days I hope to have time to really check out yours and other blogs more than with just a glance. I’m very new to this and all the tips on backgrounds, fancy fonts etc you can offer would be great. Have a great day. xxx

  75. Happy Easter Blessings! Hi Vanessa. Hope you’ve been well. Miah (my daughter) is going to LOVE your project. I’ve already printed it so she can play later today.
    Sorry to hear about your camera. UGH! So what type did you end up buying for your new one? I’m always curious about cameras. I have a lovely Olympus SLR that I need to take a class for. 🙂 In the meantime I got a hybrid that I like pretty well. That built-in stablizer is wonderful!
    Have a wonderful Easter!! Blessings… Polly

  76. Happy Easter Miss V! I hope you have a wonderful day!

  77. Paris Parfait says:

    Happy Easter, dearest V. Sorry about the camera, but you did recently say you wanted an upgrade. 🙂 xoxox

  83. Elaine L. says:

    I love the way you wrapped the eggs before putting on the fairy elf. Very sweet!
    Oh, I just love baby quail. Quail mate for life. I love to watch them. The males guard the females and babies while they eat. If a predater comes near, they will pretend to have a broken wing to distract them from the mother and babies. I watched this unfold through my kitchen window.
    ~elaine~

  84. Chris says:

    Oh, Come ON!!! I missed these! I’ve been so busy and I’m SICK about it!
