   Letting your loved ones know how special they truly are with our fun Easter egg themed card. The design could be used for any season.

   As we weather stay at home orders, crafting can be a terrific creative and fun outlet. It is important to celebrate the life we have and appreciate those around us.

   The primary technique used is iris folding. We added rubber stamps yet you could ask to kids to do some coloring or other artwork. The sentiments are added by hand for a more personalized and homemade touch. You could print them out on a computer and then pasted them as desired on the card for a classier feel.

So get cracking and made some eggs – Easter Eggs that is!
