I wanted to use that same concept but I wanted an egg cracking to reveal a small chick inside. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I used Waffle Flower&#8217;s Pull Tabs die to create my &#8220;masterpiece.&#8221; I took a standard A2 card, cut it down to 5.25&#8243; by 4&#8243; so that I could have a border when mounting it on my base card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, I made a grassy area for the egg to stand on with Distress Oxide Peeled Paint. I stamped grass detail with Distress Oxide Bundled Sage using Stampin&#8217; Up Love &amp; Sympathy. I turned the flower stamp upside down to create my grass detail. For the sky, I applied Distress Ink Tumbled Glass with Picket Fence Blending Brushes and My Favorite Things Cloud Stencil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/ChickPeak-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1805\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/ChickPeak-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/ChickPeak-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/ChickPeak.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption>Peep a BOO!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For the egg, I die cut a white egg shape (2&#8243; x 2-7\/8&#8243;) using Sizzix Framelits &#8211; Egg. I cut jagged lines to give the appearance that the egg was cracked. To make the pull tab, I watched a tutorial from Waffle Flower, see below: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Waffle Flower DEMO - Pull Tabs Die\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1fE6MQblu44?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>However I must say that this pull tab is poorly designed. If you find a better way to do the pull tab, then my all means, have at it.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Egg-inside-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1803\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Egg-inside-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Egg-inside-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/Egg-inside.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption>Have a Happy Easter<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from Stampin&#8217; Up For Peeps&#8217; Sake stamp set. Such a cute stamp set that I purchase on eBay. I do not like the exorbitant prices of tax and shipping that Stampin&#8217; Up charges for their products. You ask . . . how did you do the chick? I used Stampin&#8217; Up owl punch. The wings and feet were done with My Favorite Things Birds of a Feather die set. FYI, I did use the chick punch art design so I must give credit to <a href=\"http:\/\/brandyscards.com\/stampin-up-punch-art-chick-happy-easter\/\">http:\/\/brandyscards.com\/stampin-up-punch-art-chick-happy-easter\/<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you for visiting my blog . . . I&#8217;m a beginner at making cards but I hope enjoyed my cute little chickadee and the egg card. Here is the final product. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/EggPeeps1-1.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1806\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From watching a video tutorial by Jennifer McGuire on pull tab cards, a&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[221,222,317,316,319,321,318,340,342,341,1],"tags":[328,330,331,334,332,335,333,336],"class_list":["post-1799","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blogger","category-blogging","category-card-ideas","category-card-making","category-crafting","category-creative","category-die-cutting","category-easter","category-paper-crafting","category-special-holidays","category-uncategorized","tag-crafting","tag-easter","tag-easter-cards","tag-easter-egg","tag-easter-greeting-cards","tag-egg-cracking","tag-hand-styled-cards","tag-paper-crafting"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1799","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1799"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1799\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1808,"href":"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1799\/revisions\/1808"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1799"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1799"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kandfoto.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1799"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
