Step 1

Cut lighter green cardstock 30cm x 15cm then fold in half to form the base for the card. Cut the darker green cardstock and the cream cardstock 9cm x 6cm. Using the double-sided tape mount the green card on top of the cream card slightly off-centre leaving a small border on two sides. Attach to the right-hand side of the card front.

Step 2

Cut a 15cm x 2cm strip from the cream cardstock and a 15cm x 0.5cm strip from the dark green cardstock. Attach the dark green strip to the left side of centre of the cream strip. Attach 3 pink brads to the right side of the cream strip then attach to the left side of the card front.

Step 3

Cut an egg/oval shape from the pink cardstock. Punch a flower from the cream cardstock then attach the flower to the pink egg. Wrap some green ribbon around the egg and attach at the back. Thread the pink ribbon through the button and tie a bow. Attach the egg to the dark green panel on the front of the card then attack the button to the centre of the flower. Apply the stickers to spell out the words ‘enjoy Easter’ or words of your choice.
