Instructions
Cut out the Easter egg pattern and trace onto a sheet of colorful card stock. Cut out card stock egg pieces.
Trim about 1 inch from child's photo, so it won't stick out from beneath the egg. Keep in mind that the top 1/2" and bottom 1/2" of the photo are covered by the egg, so be sure to space accordingly when trimming photo.
Glue the top of photo to the “cracked” end of the top piece of your egg. Glue one wooden craft stick to secure the photo to the top piece of the egg. Glue a second wooden craft stick, overlapping the first craft stick by about 1-2 inches.
Cut a strip of card stock from your scraps to the same width as your egg, about 1″ thick. Glue the ends of this strip to the back of the bottom piece of your egg, just below the cracked edge.
Slip your photo/craft stick between this strip and the back of the bottom of the egg.
The photo should slide freely up and down, along with the top piece of the egg. Now you can decorate the front of the Easter egg!
