Rainbow Easter Egg Card Tutorial
Today is Day 4 of my Easter Egg Hunt contest, have you been collecting all of the colors so far?
These are fun and easy Easter Egg cards I created with the Stampin’ Up Playing with Patterns designer paper and Oval dies. I used the card stock colors to match the Playing with Patterns Designer Paper. Full instructions below.
Even though my tutorial is for a “rainbow” of colors, the Egg Hunt Color of the day is Pretty Peacock! Click here for an Egg Hunt map and details.
For more ideas using this fun patterned designer series paper check out my “Totes My Goat” video class.
