My creative process for this blog was started a week earlier when I was cutting some Easter card designs for my Joey Scouts to create with. I grabbed a whole heap of my older retired colours and cut out Easter Cards on design space. I found this cute Easter egg cut out card on my CTMH Cricut® Artfully Sent Digital Collection

I cut lots of these out because I wanted to have a selection of colours for them to choose, knowing that I could make them up myself afterwards with any left over. 
 

I kept all the internal parts that I cut out so I was easily able to fill the tiny eggs with other colours of eggs that I had pre-cut. That was the hardest part because of the zig-zag chevron part above it, I had to put a white backing on it and cut out the triangle sections. 

Then I added offcuts and scraps of my last Blossom Bundle & Blossom Paper Packet + Sticker Sheet. After I completed the layering, I covered the internal mess of scraps with a solid white cardstock. 

This card is an easy card to make and customise to whatever paper scraps you have. A great way to use up scrap papers. 

I felt artistic with my photography, so got a bit creative with Easter eggs and bunny ears.


I hope you have a happy Easter and relaxing long weekend (we get 4 days off in Australia - depending on your line of work), regardless of your beliefs I hope you can enjoy some crafting time. 

Thanks so much for dropping by to check out my latest project. Hope you can join in the Colour My Heart Colour Dare Challenge #438 too. I'm really interested to hear what you think about my card, so I'd love you to leave a comment. See you again soon, subscribe to my blog so you don't miss a challenge.

  3. Yes, you will have quite a selection of different colors and papers in your egg designs... excellent way to create several cards that look different just using the other cutouts. Cool.
