An important point in the beginning of the creative process is to determine who and how many souvenirs are planned to be made.

Thus, a further direction of activity emerges: a joint or individual production of a postcard.

Now proceed directly to the plot. The most common in this kind of postcards are images of Easter krushenki, chickens, chickens and males, and Easter bunnies, who came to us from Western culture. You can also arrange a congratulation simply in the form of wishes cut from different printed editions and postcards adorned with an unusual man-made frame. You can go less traditional way and make a souvenir in the form of casts or multi-colored fingerprints of all family members with some sentimental, suitable to the case, inscription. Or make a greeting picture in the style of origami. Or make decorative elements from the ringlets of the younger members of the family. People who are close to people are usually touched by even the elementary application that children make in kindergarten every year. And the introduced element of the creative approach and naivety of the result of children's hands and just attention to them, will make in their eyes a masterpiece of any work of family creativity.

If the postcard is designed for less close people, you should show more imagination and originality in the choice of the plot, the inscription and the way to implement the idea. In any case, Easter cards with their own hands will not remain unnoticed.
