Every holiday is different for our family. Sometimes we are able to go home and spend it with our families and sometimes it’s a party of four, just us and the boys. None the less we love to whoop it up every holiday so our boys don’t feel like they miss out on anything. We won’t be able to go home for Easter this year, but we’ll be sending Easter love via mail to all of our family!
Have you visited your local Walmart lately? Make a stop in the Hallmark card aisle! You’ll love seeing how much less you can spend on a beautiful Hallmark Easter greeting card.
We grabbed cards for everyone! My nieces are each getting a card and so is the rest of the family. I’m sending cards up North, to the East coast and down Hwy 7 to East Texas too! I brought my oldest on the hunt for Easter cards and other things to make care packages and baskets for our family.
We chose some great cards too! I couldn’t believe the value of the Easter greeting cards. The designs of the cards available did not disappoint either.
They aren’t all just, “Happy Easter” and it’s done.. We founds some cute options that are perfect for all of the people we will be sending them out to. That’s right, you totally spy a Grandparent personal cards, one from “The Easter Bunny” and other such cute options. And when I saw Snoopy, I about died! We are huge Peanuts fans in our house. Really excited that we picked that one up too! I did not feel bad about Aramis getting crazy and picking out as many cards as he did.
Wanna see what we are sending out to my nieces? You all can keep a secret right? Don’t tell them, I want them to be excited! My little Easter helper was so excited to get creative. He had no idea we would be getting crafty with the cards, he just knew that we would be putting together a basket for his cousins. We added cute ribbon and washi tape to the cards and envelope. And of course Aramis added his personal touch to each card by writing a special message from himself.
We got a cute little basket and spring colored fabric to cover the basket and tied it off with a bow. We threw in some Easter paper grass and some cascarones. We used to make these as children, so they are a annual tradition on Easter for us. The cascarones get cracked on our heads. It’s so much fun and the kids really enjoy it. Another annual tradition is a chocolate bunny. If we don’t get anything for Easter, we must get cascarones and a chocolate bunny. I made sure to add two to the basket along with the cascarones, some lollys and a bag of Bunny Tails mix.
It’s an easy recipe for a highly addictive snack: 1/2 a cup of marshmallows and 1/3 cup of cereal, all she will have to do is throw into a butter coated bowl and microwave for 30 seconds. Voila! a personal crispy cereal treat! The whole basket turned out really cute!
Sweet cards, sweet messages and sweets for our dear family we will be missing on Easter weekend.
This day in age, it’s cute that people still send cards. I usually only send thank you cards in the mail anymore.
I love how Hallmark has all those different price points. I need to pick up a few Easter cards.
I still love to send REAL cards. My grandmothers get one for every holiday!
Hall mark always has the best cards. I usually only send cards on Birthdays and Christmas.
I love the cheaper price points. Sometimes you want to give a card but the idea of spending several dollars on one just doesn’t seem attractive. Hallmark is associated with quality cards so I feel like even their cheaper priced cards would be better quality then say the dollarstore ones. I love that people still give cards, I think it’s a wonderful sentiment, especially when you can tell that someone took the time to pick one out that they know you will enjoy.
Oh my gosh, I think it’s SO CUTE when the kids make their own cards!
We love Hallmark cards for all seasons! The Easter ones this year are super cute!
I’ve recently begun to stamp my own cards because of the prices. But these prices are very reasonable!
I am happy about the value Hallmark cards at WalMart. I forget to add them to my points with the Hallmark Rewards programss
I love sending cards and didn’t realize that Hallmark had any that inexpensive! I need to get by our local store this weekend, for sure.
my kids love gettng cards from their grandparents. it’s really a lost tradition
Hallmark has the best cards and I mean really you can’t beat the value ones.
Those value cards are pretty awesome. It definitely makes it easy to get a bunch!
I love cards and I love that card prices are going DOWN! It makes them much more affordable to send out. I also think the rewards program is great 🙂
We whoop it up too, whether we’re going out or not. Easter is one of our faves!
I love opening a card! And yet I admit, I only send them at Christmas.
We love Hallmark cards! I can spend hours looking at all of the great cards, sometimes it’s hard to choose. – Jenn @ The Rebel Chick
Love hallmark. Best cards. We need to try that recipe too!!

I love to send cards – I send cards for all kinds of occasions! Hallmark makes beautiful cards
Aw, I love this idea! It’s so sweet! I love receiving cards in the mail.
I still love sending mail via snail mail… our niece and nephew look forward to it for every holiday!
I still send cards and handwritten letters to friends and loved ones.
It is cute that people send cards. Such a sweet gesture these days
I love to get handwritten cards from friends and family. It’s really special when someone actually takes the time to sit down and handwrite a message.
I usually pick up my holiday cards at a Hallmark store but you have me re-thinking this after seeing the cheaper prices offered at Walmart! Thanks for informing me!
There’s nothing better than getting REAL mail in the mailbox…that’s not a bill! LOVE this post!
This is a really fun post. I think I’m going to pick up a card and mail it out to my niece this afternoon!
Sweet post! I love sending snail mail to friends and family. It’s a great way to show that you care.
Awww, how sweet! I’ll be sending a lot of cards this year since I’m so far away from my family.
There are so many affordable choices. We really need to send some out to family far away.
Wow, I’ve never seen a Hallmark card for 47 cents. That’s so cheap!
I know right Shell! I grabbed a few of those bad boys!! 🙂
I didnt know that Hallmark had so much to offer for Easter. Some really cute cards and chocolate bunny is always a Easter hit.
I was floored when I saw $0.47 Onica! 🙂
I love the selection of Hallmark Easter Value Cards at Walmart too! Sounds like you and your family are really going to make this Easter special! Thanks so much for sharing. #client
We really are. I’m so excited!! Thanks Shannon!
I know this is old but I love the Bunny Trail Mix. I think that will make it into my kids this year.
My family lives far away. I try to send cards but I sometimes forget. I will go buy my Easter cards now. Thanks for the reminder.
I have always loved Hallmark. Sending actual cards or letters is like a thing of the past anymore.
