There is something very special about Hallmark Easter Cookie Cutters. They are usually quite large, in festive and springtime colors, and very detailed and whimsical. The freshness of Spring is reflected in the intricate detail in the eggs and the long eared bunnies. To me Easter is a time to celebrate the resurrection of Christ, but includes the celebration of the beginning of the "beautiful" season of Spring.

#HME-1B 1974 Large Soft Yellow Easter Egg With Flowers
The Hallmark Easter Cookie Cutters below in the Yellow Boy, Pink Girl, One Egg and Lime Green Rabbit were sold in a set in l974. This is one of Hallmark's Early Sets, Hard Plastic, very detailed and well made. All cutters were made in Pink, Yellow, Baby Blue and Lime Green, but I don't know if the sets came in all the same color or were mixed. The egg was re-issued in 1978 in soft plastic with an eyelet.
