Mother’s Day Card & Kid Craft

I love handmade cards…espcially ones my kids make. Since Mother’s day is right around the corner, my kiddies and I had a crafty afternoon making these cards for their grandmas. I have seen flowers made from cupcake liners and thought this would be a perfect place to make and use them!

 

Supplies you need:

This post contains affiliate links.

• Cute scrapbook paper (sized 8.5 x 11)
• Paper cutter/scissors
• Elmer’s Glue Spots or Dot Runner (I LOVE these, espcially the dot runner)
• My free mother’s day wordart download (below)
• Cupcake liners
• Elmer’s Decorative Masking Tape

How to make :

We started with a regular 8.5 x 11 sized scrapbook page & folded it in half to make the card. (it’s a big one:)  We then covered the front of the card with another piece of colored paper sized 4.5 x 7.5 inches. I used a photo corner punch to make the rounded corners.

To make the flowers, fold the cupcake liners in either 1/2 or 1/4. We used 3 halves for the small liners & 4  (1/4 pieces) for the big liners. The trick was fluffing the paper after we glued them down…definitely fluff! Then add a colorful button in the center. You could also add a photo in the center:)

Using the decorative Masking tape, make your stem and tape down your cut out word art. I LOVE this decorative tape….I {heart} the gingham pattern}

We cut out green leaves to add to our flower.

Add our Mother’s Day Questionnaire to the inside!

The kiddos were pretty darn proud of their cute cards…they really did it on their own after I showed them one! The dot runner & glue dots made it a cinch!

Check out my post coming up next Monday…I have a little goodie for you that you can add to these cute Mother’s Day cards!
