Free Craft ProjectLamb Card HolderSubmitted by Karen Hunady from Crafts For All Seasons... This lamb craft makes a cute Easter place name holder for your Easter party. The body is made out of cotton swabs, and the legs are made from two clothespins. The clothespins can hold a name tag or a little note. You can also just make the lamb's body and made paper legs, and then you can turn this Spring craft into a magnet, an embellishment for a fun Easter card.
Materials
