Easter Card with Watercolor Egg Wreath

There is nothing like Easter that makes me think about color.  Instead of just coloring some real eggs this Easter, I decided to break out my oval die set to make some paper eggs. First, I used some watercolor markers to color a sheet of watercolor paper with the colors of the rainbow, only in lighter version to make them feel more “Eastery”.  Then, I used my oval dies to cut out a bunch of “eggs”.  I also used some flower dies from Elizabeth Craft Designs to create some flowers out of the same watercolor paper.  Then, I used some stickers (border stickers from Hot of the Press/Paper Wishes, and Easter stickers from Walmart) to decorate the eggs.  Putting it all together in a wreath makes a beautiful focal image for an Easter Card.  I used a sheet of textured cardstock the size of 12 X 12 cut to 12 X 6 and scored at 3″ and 6″ to create a gate fold card.  I adhered the wreath to only the right side of the front of the card so the card opens on the wreath side.  Enjoy the card and the video:
