Cut a slice off the card tube about 3-4 cm long and then cut a strip of green card the same width and long
enough to cover the outside of the tube. From the green card you will also need to cut 2 leaves and a 2cm
strip 6cm long which will be glued inside the tube to act as a sling for the egg, as it is unlikely to be a tight
fit.
Using the chosen coloured card cut out six petals as shown opposite.
First glue the sling into place, trying the egg to see if it fits at about the correct height. Now cover the
outside of the tube with the green strip and glue in place. Bend the petals at the bottom so that you can glue
the square tabs to the inside of the tube with the petals facing outwards. Add the two leaves by gluing them
to the outside of the tube, wherever you feel they look best.
Pop the egg into the middle; if it rocks around, a little tissue paper may hold it in position.
Finally add the tag.
