This week I’m sharing a special Easter Handprint Card that’s perfect for parents, grandparents, teachers, or any loved ones you wish to celebrate Easter with. Handprint cards are one of my favorite ways to mark the time in a child’s life.
When my son was younger, we often made hand and footprint cards for just about every holiday and birthday card. As he’s grown older, I must admit I do it less but I love them just as much as I ever did. This is exactly why we made one this year! Check out the easy directions below.

Materials Needed:
- Green Construction Paper
- Pink Construction Paper
- Yellow Construction Paper
- Purple Construction Paper
- Brown Construction Paper
- Scissors
- Glue Stick
- Markers
- One Cute Little Hand
Directions:
*There are 2 ways to make this card- Step 1 can be done one of two ways for the card to either be an open card with a message inside or a card that does not open and the message is written on the back.
Open Card:
- Fold a piece of green construction paper in half. Using the LEFT hand, line up the left side of the hand up against the crease. Trace the hand and then cut it out, leaving the left side uncut. The hand should then open like a standard card.
Non-Open Card:
- Trace the left hand and cut it out.
- Draw and cut 3 eggs from pink, yellow, and purple construction paper, a basket, flower, and leaves.
- Decorate the 3 eggs with markers.
- Glue the basket filled with eggs to the front of the hand, followed by the flower with 2 leaves. Color a yellow center on the flower.
- Open and write a special message inside.

Let your child cut out the handprint and eggs after tracing. The basket, flower, and leaves might be a bit more difficult for a youngster. And if your little one is learning to write, go ahead and let them write something special inside or on the back of the card, depending on which you chose to make! This card looks adorable either way.
Happy Easter!
