Mother's Day Card DIY Ideas

Embroidered Watercolour DIYCard

This one combines watercolour and a bit of stitching. Start by painting simple flowers and leaves on card stock using watercolours. Once dry, use thread to sew simple stems or curls onto the paper. If you're comfortable with a needle, add a few tiny French knots to represent little flowers.

Handprint DIY Card

Trace a child's hand on card stock to create a template. Then fold a long strip of paper accordion-style and trace the hand shape across the folds, making sure the fingers slightly overlap so it stays connected. When pulled open, the hands stretch out, just like a hug. Kids can decorate each hand with drawings or sweet notes.

Flower Sticker DIY Card

Bright and cheerful, this card is ideal if you’re short on time. Use flower-shaped stickers in pinks, purples, or whites and place them on patterned paper for a layered, bouquet look. Add a handwritten note to make it personal.

Pressed Flower DIY Card

Collect small flowers and press them in a heavy book for about a week. Then arrange them on card stock with glue. Keep the design simple to let the natural beauty of the flowers stand out.

Thumbprint Animal DIY Card

Dip thumbs and pinkies in ink to make a series of animal shapes, larger prints for ‘mom’ animals and smaller ones for ‘babies.’ Once dry, draw on eyes, tails, and other little details with a fine marker.

Fabric Flower DIY Card

Scraps of fabric can turn into soft, lifelike petals. Treat the fabric with stiffener, let it dry, and then use craft punches to cut out flower and leaf shapes. Glue them onto a blank card, just at the center, so the edges lift up for a 3D effect. Finish with hand-drawn stems and a message.
