Fun ways to DIY a Mother's Day Card
Love getting crafty? We also have a few DIY Mother's Day card ideas in store for you. This is great for getting your kids in on the fun and making Mom's day — all in one go.
You could use your printed Designify card as a base, but these tips work even if you want to start with a blank piece of paper. Here are a few to help you whip up a gorgeous handmade Mother's Day card in no time.
Create a collage of special photos
With Designify you can create a digital collage — but it's also fun to put one together the "analog way" with some special photos of you and your Mom.
So once you've picked your photos, you have to:
Print them out
Cut their edges a bit so they fit your card just right
Paste them to the front page of your card
Write out your message on the inside
(If you're creating a collage with kids, make sure they use a safe pair of scissors when cutting out the photos.)
Use pressed flowers for your card
May's the season of flowers for a good reason — and with pressed flowers, you add a touch of elegance and creativity to your Mother's Day card.
You can quickly create your own pressed flowers if you have some fresh flowers, coffee filters, and a microwave at hand. Here's how:
Place a coffee filter on a ceramic plate.
Place your flower on the coffee filter.
Cover the flower with another coffee filter.
Put another plate on top.
Microwave for around a minute.
Take out the plate and replace the coffee filters.
Place your plate on top again and microwave for another minute.
Repeat these steps until you're happy with the result.
You can also create dry, pressed flowers by storing them between the pages of a heavy book — like a dictionary or an encyclopedia. (Just a heads-up: this process might need around 4–5 weeks for a great result.)
Get hands-on with your design
Got a bunch of budding little artists at home? Let's get them in on the fun. With a simple set of paints and colors, you can create the following:
-
A handprint painting, where your kids can place their hands over the card to create cute bird or butterfly-shaped marks. Once they dry, you can help them write a personal message in the center to Mom.
-
A hand-traced drawing like this, which you can fill up with sequins, glitter, and other craft materials. Also perfect for a heartfelt Mother's Day message.
-
A fingerprint painting, which you can use to create a cute tree or heart-shaped image. Great for younger artists!
Where there's paint and color involved, things can get messy — so we'd recommend spreading a ton of newspaper clippings around when DIY-ing your Mother's Day card. Happy crafting!
