Easter Egg Card

Wow, how did Easter sneak up on me? Time is zipping by and I have to stop.... and focus on the important things.  Easter is a very important day for us Christians. It is one of the two holy days (Christmas being the first one) that we love to celebrate. And I want to share this day with friends and family, so...

I made some Easter Cards that you might want to make too.

Today's project is:
Easter Egg Card
you will need:
white card stock
colored/printed card stock
brad
glue

You will want to make an egg pattern on scrap paper. Make sure it fits an envelope.

Then trace this egg onto the white card stock and the colored card stock.

Take your scissors and cut zig zags into the lower half to show the 'egg' cracking. You will glue this onto the bottom of the white egg.

Then take an exacto knife, or something likewise, and cut a slit into the top to put in the brad. This will enable the top half of the colored egg to open up to show the greeting.



You can also write a greeting onto the back of the egg.
I want to wish everyone a happy Easter and a wonderful new year since this is the beginning of Spring. Winter is ending and I'm thankful for that. I love the new flowers and buds and warm weather. So bring on shorts and flip flops.

tip of the day:

take your fabric softener sheet, and sew around three sides. Tuck in some lavender and sew around the remaining edge. Throw this into your dryer and your clothes will smell  wonderful! It should last several dryings.

 

That's all for now...
