How to do it Download the templates/recipes
1. Place the faux leather paper in the embossing folder and roll it through the die-cutting and embossing machine.
2. Print and cut out the template for the egg which is available as a separate PDF file for this idea. Copy the template onto the back of the faux leather paper and cut out.
3. Make holes all around the edge though both layers, using a hammer and a darning needle.
4. Sew buttonhole stitches using the holes. Leave a small opening.
5. Fill the egg lightly with polyester stuffing and sew the hole closed. Secure the loop of the leather cord for hanging when sewing the hole.
6. Attach the pendant with the cotton cord onto the egg, thread the wooden bead onto the leather cord and tie a knot.
7. Write the text with stamps and a coloured stamp pad with ink.
