Easter Egg Cards + A Vegetarian Easter Surprise!

Apr 7

Happy Easter everyone!

It has been a while since I gave away a freebie so I thought it would be nice to give you guys some treat for the upcoming Easter celebration.

If you’re tired of preparing Easter Eggs for your Easter Egg Hunt, you might want to make things a little different by giving them egg-shaped cards.

Instead of hiding real eggs, this year you can try hiding Easter Egg cards with little love notes written on the inside for your kids, husband/wife, or even friends to find. When I was a kid, I often wondered what to do with the eggs I find during the hunt. I never really liked eating eggs alone as I like them prepared together with some other ingredients as in a cake. I mean, who wouldn’t love cake??!! So anyway, I never really enjoyed Easter Egg Hunt because once when I asked my Aunt what I should do with the eggs I found, she told me that I am supposed to eat all of them for good luck. Blech!!!

So being an ovo-lacto vegetarian (who does not eat eggs ALONE lol), I will be making egg cards with my little love notes and spreading them around the house for my family to find. Or maybe inside the cards I can write something like: “You win an hour’s worth of massage from me”. teehee.

This sounds fun! As I write this, I am brainstorming the messages I’m going to write on my egg cards. I will definitely show you photos of my messages and where I will hide some of them but right now I still can’t because, believe it or not, my husband Mr. Snuggles is my no. 1 blog fan and so he earnestly reads my posts and this will let him into some of my surprise notes. teehee.

When I made the printable cards, I though about having a vegan take on the Easter Egg Hunt. And so I made this for all vegans out there and all those who’d like a funnier take on the egg hunt this Easter:

Egg-plant, get it?

I think it would also be nice if the Easter bunny held an eggplant instead of an egg. Like this:

Cute right? Besides, bunnies are vegetarians so the eggplant makes better sense than an egg. LOL

Oh, by the way, here are the download links for the Easter Egg and Eggplant Cards! Enjoy!

30-day Crafting Frenzy #16: Hand Painted and Stamped Easter Eggs

Mar 30

Our days should be as colorful as these Easter eggs

I diligently took out the eggs out of the shell by poking a hole at each end of the egg and blowing through it to get the eggs out. It was fun making these at seven in the morning. The holes didn’t look neat in the beginning but after taking out all the insides of each egg, I rinsed them all and used a small piece of sticker paper to cover each hole.

I painted them and hand stamped each egg with the eraser stamps I made.

These are just for decoration. We’ll be making our Easter eggs (the hard boiled ones because this is too tedious to make!) this Saturday night in time for our Easter Egg Hunt on Sunday. I still can’t believe that Mr. Snuggles has not had any egg-hunting experience!

If you and your family’s making and designing your Easter Eggs, I’d like to see them too so do share.

Have an egg-citing week!
