Three Mother's Day card ideas for Mom
There's nothing quite like receiving a personalised, handmade Mother's Day card, made with love and a sprinkle of glitter.
You might be surprised, but not all moms expect you to bring out all the bells and whistles when celebrating them on Mother's Day.
While it is important to show gratitude daily, Mother's Day is a special time to remind us to pamper the one person who lovingly faffs over us throughout the year.
The day is set aside to make mom feel special, and what better way to make her feel valued than doting on her with handmade crafts?
Here are three cute and timeless Mother's Day card ideas for the kids.
Because a mother's love is printed in our hearts, Abigail from Hands-on Learning for Kids shared this cute card idea. You only need your child's hand, some paint, and a paper heart cut out.
Check out the video below from TikTok on how to make it.

This third idea isn't so much a card as it is a great way to personalise a bouquet without having it die. Glueing hearts on skewer sticks can create a cute vase for mom.
This is also a fun activity with the kids, so if you'd like to encourage their creativity, it's a great personalised gift idea for mom, grandma or a their favourite aunt.
