Easter Card Ideas You'll Love to Make This Spring

Easter is one of our very favourite holidays throughout the calendar year, as no matter what your beliefs are, it's right at that wonderful time when the sun is shining, flowers are blooming -- and yet the chocolate eggs we get for our children and loved ones still manage to get by without melting instantly during Easter egg hunts! 

Even if you're unable to have the family gather around this year, you can still send them creative, thoughtful cards that will bring smiles to your loved ones' faces. Here at Mankey Monkey, we put together 5 Easter card ideas your family will adore.

1. Chicks and Bunnies with Funny Legs 

How adorable! Just imagine how cute these little accordion legs will look on cut-out Easter bunnies and chicks as they're propped up on someone's office desk. Just a simple pair of scissors, glue and some coloured paper is all you'll need to put life into your Easter card that is sure to end up on someone's mantlepiece. 

2. Hatching Chicks

Simple to make and as quirky as they are endearing, little hatching chicks are perfect Easter cards for all ages! If you're feeling particularly adventurous, you can also change out the animals inside for a surprise! Even though we all know mammals don’t tend to hatch from eggs, there’s no need to limit your family’s creativity!

3. Easter Animal Handprints

These are great for getting the children involved in the card-making process! You can simply take some coloured paper, fold it in half, outline your or your kiddo's hand, and attach googly eyes and little feet to the front. Open up the card and write a cute message for the grandparents! The handprints will also serve as a good way to remind parents, grandparents, and loved ones of a time when the kiddos made were small.

4. Bunny Picture Frame Cards

You can turn your Easter card into an irreplaceable keepsake with just some cotton, a picture of your children or a loved one, some glue and scissors! Of course, you won't be able to put these in an envelope, but that's what our plantable seeded gift tags are for! A picture and a little effort to show your family member or loved one that you took the time to give them something special will mean the world to them.

5. Bunny Peekaboo Card

These precious bunny cards are meant to be placed with the opening on the base, allowing a little rabbit face to peek its head through the cut-out hole! Putting a few layers of coloured paper on both the inside and outside will surely add some flare – go crazy with it! Add a cute and witty line next to the hole that will bring a smile to someone's face this Easter.
