Easy and Cute Mother’s Day Card

by Chris on April 20, 2009

Mother's Day GraphicsMother’s Day is coming up really fast… in case you didn’t realize it!

I call this card the “Guess How Much I Love You” Card…

It’s a very simple card to make that is guaranteed to get a big smile from Mom.  My daughter brought one of these home to me when she was two and I keep it in my scrapbook.

What You’ll need:

  • 2 sheets of construction paper
  • A pencil
  • Glue stick
  • Scissors.

What to do:

1.  Trace each of the child’s hands onto one of the sheets of construction paper.

2.  Cut out.

3.  Fold the second sheet of construction paper in half like a card. On the outside of the card write, “Guess How Much I Love You…”

4.  Glue each of the hands to the inside of the card so that they are facing out. Between the hands write, “I Love You This Much!” Happy Mother’s Day!

I realize my directions aren’t so great and it may be a little difficult to understand them, so I made a template for the card, so all you have to do is cut out the hands, print out both sides of the template, color and put together.

It’s super easy and Mom will love it!

Hi Dee! I don’t think there’s any problems… everything seems to be working fine.

Surely the mums will love it!

I really enjoy the great ideas but I can’t seem to print the templates either. Thanks, Deb

I go to print the timplate and it says that it is a “secured pdf file.”

I’m not sure why everyone was having problems with the file when I’m wasn’t… weird.

I moved the location of the file. Hopefully that will fix it. Please let me know!
