Egg Cards for Easter

Get creative with your homemade Easter cards! Make egg cards for the kids with Glue Dots and other supplies from Hobby Lobby.

Here's what you need:Easter Egg Cards

  • 1" Glue Lines®
  • Yellow Cardstock (we used yellow glitter paper)
  • Blue Cardstock
  • Pink Cardstock
  • Ribbon or Washi Tape
  • Scissors

Here's what you do:

  1. Cut 1 egg shape out of a piece of yellow cardstock to create the inside of the card.
  2. Cut 2 more egg shapes about 1/2" larger on each side out of blue or pink cardstock. This will be your egg shell.
  3. Take one of the larger egg shapes and apply 1" Glue Lines around the outer edge.
  4. Adhere the matching egg shapes together, pressing firmly around the edges to secure the bond.
  5. Cut a jagged line horizontally through the middle of the two eggs adhered together to create the envelope.
  6. Secure ribbon with 1" Glue Lines along the jagged edge.  Exploring layering the ribbon to add depth.
  7. Write a personal greeting on the yellow egg and slide it into the jagged opening to close the card.
