handmade mothers day cards
1. Use die cut flowers and stickers
To make the card look interesting, try using different alphabets for each of the words. Here happy got the small stickers, mothers got bold alphas that I stitched over and I had wrote the word day
I used small stickers, floral cut outs, and alphabet thickers- all stuff left over from my scrapbooking kits to make these cards. Cards are such a small size, it’s a great way to use those paper scraps and bits.
2. Paint a Watercolor Floral card
3. Use Wood veneers patterned papers:
I love the wood veneers I added to these cards, they contrast so nicely against the shimmery alphabets. I mixed and matched different patterns and designs of paper and had so much fun!
4. Make a Statement Bow
My favorite card/tag! Add a huge felt bow or ribbon bow and use bright contrasting colors to make it pop! Sure to make someone smile.
5. Add pearls to make a special card
Check out my Rolled Flowers tutorial
Make easy flowers with some patterned paper, by just spiral cutting the paper and rolling it into layers with some adhesive. Add a pearl in the center of each.
6. Create small tags with lace and pearls
You can’t go wrong with lace and pearls, can you? Try adding these details to your cards to make them special!
7. Add a silhouette of your mom
I love the black silhouette of this card! So simple and stunning. This would be a great one to make using an actual photo of your mom
8. New Mom Card idea
Make a cute Mother’s day card for a New mom. Draw or cut out a onesie shape and add a few buttons to it!
