I have grandsons in 2nd and 4th grades. All the Easter cards I see are just too cutsie and babyish for boys that age so I went searching on the internet for some jokes or puns about Easter that I could put on cards. Here is one I found. The 2nd grader is a big riddle fan so I know he will love this one.
And the answer inside:
Papers are from scrap file. The bunny stamp is The Angel Company, colored with pencils, fussy cut and placed in the "grass" cut with fringe making shears. The eggs are Inkadinkadoo, also colored with pencils and fussy cut. The riddle is done on computer and then die cut with Word Bubble dies from SU. The chick inside lost its label so I don't know who made it.. The answer in another Word Bubble die is sponged with orange ink to make it stand out. The egg is Indadinkadoo. after coloring it and cutting out, I used a Sharpie marker to make a zig-zag crack and cut along those lines then glued it on so it looks broken.
I will submit this to CASology challenge who's cue word is Egg. Although this card is for my grandson, I printed out additional riddles and will make some like this for the Send A Smile 4 Kids who is having an Anything Goes challenge.

So cute, Donna. I've done this before with Halloween cards, although my grands are even too old for that now.
