Make an Adorable 3D Mother's Day Card

This adorable Mother's Day card is easy to make and guaranteed to make Mum smile. Little people will need to be old enough to handle scissors for this craft.

What You'll Need

  • Blank white card (we used A4 size)
  • Two sheets of coloured paper (we chose two shades of pink because we're obsessed)
  • Scissors
  • Clear craft glue (Elmer's or similar)
  • Felt tip pen or fine marker
  • 10cm length of narrow ribbon

Step 1: Create your backing card

Fold your white card in half to create the A5 backing card for your bouquet of hearts.

Next you'll need to cut your coloured paper into smaller rectangles, we cut our sheet in half vertically then into 5 even-ish sections. Finished sizes were about 6cm by 10cm each, this does not need to be exact.

Step 2: Cut out the hearts

Take one of your coloured paper pieces and fold in half. Then use your scissors to cut a half heart shape along the fold.

Step 4: Draw the strings

Using a felt tip pen (our pen was pink of course) draw some strings from the hearts to the centre of the card near the bottom of the paper. We drew four little strings.
