Servings: 1 Suncatcher
Ingredients
- Card stock pastel colors
- Pencil
- Scissors
- Tissue Paper pastel colors
- Adhesive contact paper clear
- Glue stick
- Templates Bunny, Chick, Cross, Egg
Instructions
- Let’s start by printing out the template. Print out whichever template you like or all 4!
- Cut around the outside and inside of the template, leaving about a 1/2-inch border. Trace the template onto a piece of pastel-colored cardstock. Cut the desired shape. Set aside.
- It’s time to cut your tissue paper into 2-inch squares. Using multiple colors will give a stained glass effect.
- Cut a piece of clear contact paper that is just larger than your bunny, chick, cross, or egg. Place the contact paper sticky side up over the top of your shape. Start placing your previously cut tissue paper squares. They will stick to the contact paper. It’s ok to overlap the tissue paper squares. Repeat until all negative space is filled.
- Take the card stock bunny, chick, cross, or egg and place a thin layer of glue on the back around the border. Place it on top of the contact paper and tissue paper. Press to secure.
- Finally, cut the excess contact paper, and your Easter suncatcher is ready to shine.
