Difficulty: Easy

Materials:

Ribbon and craft eggs 

Scrapbook paper

Vinyl or die cut letters or

Stamped letters

Scissors or paper cutter

Pencil and ruler

Directions:

Gather supplies and use whatever coordinating papers out with letters. After you have decided which paper you want to use, you will want to decide which letters and lay them out to measure a square around them. 

With a ruler, draw a square around each letter and use paper cutter to cut a straight line on each side of the square. As a shortcut I use the first square as a template for the rest of the squares- set aside until all squares have been cut.

Apply vinyl or glue each die letter to your paper squares. You can also use foam stamps and craft paint for your letters if you do not have vinyl letters or stickers on hand.

When letter squares are done attach with mini clothespins to your Easter egg ribbon garland. You can make the ribbon garland by threading ribbon through styrofoam or craft eggs, you can also purchase one at your local Craft store if you don't want to make one but it does make it "eggstra" special for hanging your cute letters. When all letters are attached it is ready to hang!
