Egg Hunt

 Hello All,

For today I will be playing along with Color Hues. I have never attempted a 'double Z fold' before so I thought I would try it for this egg hunt card. Here is my card for today, enjoy!

This double-Z fold card is the perfect kind of card for what I wanted to accomplish. I had inspiration from well.... Pinterest (here). I really liked the idea of an egg hunt card but instead of a flat card front I thought I would layer it up a bit more with the double-Z fold. Each part of the 'z' reveals eggs that are hidden when the card of folded.

I had to hold the card shut for this photo and I think it illustrates nicely the eggs hidden within the grass. I used various pink patterned papers (say that five times fast!) and egg sizes for interest.

This is a good photo of the double z-fold in action. Lots of eggs leading to the back where there is ample room to write a message.

The card completely opened up shows the extent of the egg hunt scene. I didn't forget about the back of the card. Each layer has another egg over top to cover up the back of the patterned paper. Both sides look nice and finished. The eggs that extend out beyond the fold nestle nicely into the card.
