Bunny crafts are just perfect for Easter time and you can't get cuter than a small child using their footprint to create it. We have lots more Easter crafts for you to take a look at in our Easter crafts and activities collection.
There is nothing better as a parent than receiveing a handmade card that includes your child's little handprint or footprint. I think that goes for grandparents too! Children grow far too quickly so it is lovely to create a reminder of how tiny they are.
These cards were made using my 7 week old baby's tiny footprints and they are so adorably cute! Taking footprints from a baby can be sometimes be difficult, rather then using paint on their delicate skin I would recommend using an inkless handprint and footprint kit.
Over the years we have created many many keepsakes and we have made a collection of DIY keepsake ideas for you to browse through.

Footprint Easter Bunny Card
Once you have downloaded and printed out the 'Hoppy Easter' printable template it is really easy to make this keepsake card. We have included two types of prinatble templates for you to choose from. For babies and younger toddlers I would recommend the card that can be folded in half. For older toddlers and preschoolers you may need to use the A4 design to fit their footprints in the white space.
You can either print the footprints straight onto the card or you can make them on paper first and then cut them out and stick them onto the card. Once you have made the footprint you need to add 2 ears to the heel of the footprint.
We made our cards using baby Oliver's footprints. He is only 7 weeks old so I didn't want to use paint, instead I used a inkless handprint and footprint kit.
Inkless handprint and footprint kits are great for creating keepsakes and they work perfectly for this Easter craft. I took his footprints by wiping his foot with a special wipe that came in the kit and then pressing it onto the memory paper. Once I had Oliver's footprint I wiped my little finger with the special wipe in the pack and pressed it onto the paper to create the ears.
Once the footprint bunny is on the 'Hoppy Easter' card glue on a white pom pom as the bunny's tail. If you are making the card with a baby you might be able to fit two footprints on the card.
We also have a 'some bunny loves you' version of this card.
