Mother’s Day is a really special occasion for mothers and their children. Children love making their cards almost as much as their mums enjoy receiving them. Get some inspiration from fun and creative cards for children to make and take home this Mother’s Day.
To make your Mother’s Day cards, you will need…
Mother’s Day Flower Cards
Create a vase using a rectangle of paper, and cut off the two bottom corners. Fold the three edges of paper and glue to the card to create a vase shape. Create flowers and stalks using coloured paper and cut-out shapes, and place inside the vase.
Tissue Paper and Button Flower Cards
Draw flower shapes with felt tipped pens. Decorate the flowers by using pieces of screwed up tissue paper, buttons and felt tipped pens. Children can also use felt tip pens to write ‘Happy Mother’s Day’ in bubble writing and decorate cards with cut-out shapes.
Fingerprint Flowers
Dip fingers in different colours of paint and print fingers onto paper to create the centres and petals of flowers. Once the paint is dry, draw on the stems with fibre tipped pens.
Blossom Tree
Create a pretty tree with spring blossom by painting a tree shape onto paper with brown paint. You can then add blossom to the tree by gluing on a small pompoms or scrunched up pink tissue paper.
