One Cute Easter Chick

Don’t you just love this cute little vintage chick? From her cute little bonnet to her dyed Easter Eggs, she just adds a whimsical touch to this easy card.

To create a Twirly Twine center to the vintage yo-yo, use a button and glue the end of the Twirly Twine to the middle.  Then start wrapping around gluing as you wrap.  Complete it by trimming the Twirly Twine and tucking it behind the button and glue.

Ingredients:

Retro Easter Kit

Pink Twirly Twine

Bingo Craft Cards

Retro Easter Placecards

Ephemera Assortment

Crate Paper – Little Boy Blue

Making Memories Stamp Findings

Hope you can make time today to create.

Wishing you a lovely day.
