Sending Easter Greetings: DIY Motifs, Text Ideas & Postcard Tips
Spring is here, nature is waking up, and Easter is just around the corner. Besides chocolate bunnies and egg hunts, there's hardly anything better than finding real, tangible spring greetings in the mailbox.

In this guide, we'll show you how to easily create creative DIY motifs with your smartphone, when the card needs to be in the mail at the latest, and which texts are guaranteed to make them smile.

When is the latest I should send my Easter card?
Since Good Friday and Easter Monday are public holidays, the post does not deliver on these days (Saturday is delivered as regular). To be safe, you should send your card by the Monday or Tuesday before the Easter weekend.
Where can I find free motifs for my Easter greetings?
There are platforms on the internet like Unsplash or Pexels that offer millions of free, professional photos. Search terms like "Easter", "Spring" or "Tulips" provide the best results. In our guide for free motifs, we explain exactly how it works.
How do I turn children's drawings into a postcard?
This is the best DIY hack! Have the kids paint an Easter picture, place the paper on the floor in good daylight, and photograph it vertically from above. You can then upload this photo to slickpostcard – this way you send artworks without giving away the original.
What do you write on an Easter card for business clients?
Keep it professional but warm-hearted. Example: "We wish you and your team a sunny Easter, relaxing holidays, and a wonderful start to spring. Thank you for the great collaboration!"
