Happy Easter Greeting Card
In The Shape Of An Egg
Homemade Easter greeting card in the shape of an egg which opens out to reveal a cute little chick.
Yes! It's time to celebrate Easter. Why not make a few of these easter egg greetings and send them to surprise friends and relatives.
I'm sure they will love it. This greeting card design is simple to make. Just follow the free printable template that I have provided and you should not have any problem duplicating it.
You can make this card with kids too. They will love to color the egg and chick. And it's okay if they color outside the line because you are going to trim around the pattern anyway.
This is the front of the easter egg. I used skin color tone ink from a ink pad to color it and leave some white spaces to give a 3D effect.
This is how it looks when you open the top half of the egg.
Here's how the inside looks like.
And here's the step by step instructions for making this card. The free printable template for this card can be downloaded by clicking here. (Note: You will need Adobe Reader v.5 and above to view this file. Download Free Adobe Reader.)
