FOLD OUT EASTER CARDS

Well if you read my last 2 posts you'll see that I've been working on shaped cards by copying Heartfelt Creations fold out cards.  Though I love the beauty of their cards and the lovely papers they have I was going to instead use what I had on hand and turn them into a more fun type kids card.  I send out quite a few kids Easter cards and try to use a different shape every year but.....There are only so many shapes.  I believe I have used nearly all possible fun shapes for Easter Kids cards so when I saw that my friend had bought a bunch of different size card bases from Heartfelt Creations I jumped into copy mode.  You can read the previous 2 post on how I did this for today is just a reveal.
So with out further ado........................................
All of these are just variations of a Z-fold card.  Here's Closeups.........................



The embellishing on these are super super simple on purpose.  All of these are going to little ones Under the age of 5 so you know they will be a bit mishandled.  Which is OK with me...I want them to be able to open and close the cards and touch the bunnies and eggs.All of these cards folded measure 4.25 x 5.5.  I have a few more in progress that I will be posting later. 2 more that are similar to these and 2 from a different Sizzix card die.   

Off to finish the rest......in the mean time.............................

HAPPY CARDING!!
