Fearless Friday, Last Minute Easter Gift
Here is a last minute Easter gift idea…
My grands are getting so grown up, they are now 9, 11,12 & 15…
I have always given them candy and toys for Easter,
but these days they are all about earning spending money,
and they are great about doing chores and helping out…
I thought about gift cards but then
I decided to give them some good old cash!
I tucked it in an envelope
with a monogrammed Easter egg on it
to find Easter morning
Pinterest has tons of Easter egg design ideas here
which I glanced at for inspiration and then I did a sketch~
I did a rough pencil shaped egg that obviously isn’t perfect~
you can always make a template and trace the egg if you’d rather
I inked it and started playing with the design
I wanted each egg to have their first initial and a heart
As I said, these are far from perfect
but the children will rip into them
and they will be history, so it really doesn’t matter
After doing a mock up, I drew the eggs on the envelopes
And colored them with markers
I will slip the cash inside and put the envelopes on the kitchen island
with a bunny vignette to find on Easter morning
C, E, F & W will be happy little bunnies!
These would also make a cute gift tag or card~
Have fun and Be Fearless!

Bittersweet! The kids will love those, but isn’t it kind of sad that it’s the end of an era. Happy Easter, Jenna and family.
I know 🥲 but now it’s wonderful because they can help out, we had the youngest vacuuming the sandy floor yesterday! I hope you have a wonderful Easter Rita 💕
Jenna, how can this be 9, 11, 12, and 15?! Money is easier, but it is like Rita said…bittersweet. The envelopes are so cute. Wishing you and your family a Happy Easter!
Thank you Pam, the upside is now they are old enough to really help around the house 😊 Happy Happy Easter!
I love how they turned out. Very pretty! 😊
Thanks Steph!
How clever Jenna and I fully understand the bittersweet comments. They grow so fast…reminds me of the song “Sunrise/Sunset”…and it brings tears to my eyes. Have a glorious and Happy Easter!
Thank you so much Kari! Happy Easter
I’m sure your designing their cards made the gift more personal for you and for them. Very sweet!
Thank you Linda!
Your grandkids are so lucky to have such a talented and clever grandmother. Good old cash always works for me as well, but I used to really enjoy putting Easter baskets together for all the kids. Happy Easter to you and your family!
Thank you Pattie! We ended up having an impromptu Easter egg hunt and the 3 youngest loved it, so that made my heart happy. Happy April!
I bet your little bunnies had a smile too with their adorable Easter homemade, handmade cards! Love it! Hugs and blessings, Cindy
Thank you Cindy, Happy Easter!
Adorable art and envelopes Jenna! Cash is always king when they get that age. Glad you had a happy Easter and a fun beach getaway. ♥
The cash was very popular! So was the giant chocolate bunnies HHjr gave them!
Your artistic envelopes are fabulous! I imagine your grands liked them too and the money! ❤️
ha ha, they were pretty excited!
