Easy Easter Egg Card

Create a simple egg-shaped Easter card with two colors of paper, one solid and one patterned. Make and send these Easter egg cards in no time. Project designed by Fawnda Norman.

Materials:

• Plain Card stock
• Strip of decorative paper
• Scissors
• hole punch
• Scoring tool (I use a ruler and a skewer)
• Ribbon
• Pencil
• Marker

Instructions:

1. On the card stock draw an egg shape.
   
   
    
2. Cut out the egg shape.
   
   
    
3. Place your strip of decorative paper upside down, place the egg shape on top of it and trace around the outside of the egg shape.
   
   
    
4. Cut out on the lines that you traced on the strip of decorative paper.
   
   
    
5. Place the strip on to your egg being careful to line up the edges.
   
   
    
6. Use your scoring tool to score a straight line for the fold. I use a ruler and the pointed side of the skewer to make my score. Be sure to leave enough room for you to punch 2 holes on the other side.
   
   
    
7. Punch two holes through both layers.
   
   
    
8. Tie a ribbon through the two holes to attaching the top paper to the bottom paper.
   
   
    
9. Write a creative greeting on the front. I am not creative so I wrote "Hoppy Easter!"
