A hand made card , filled with love and
flowers that will never wilt!
You'll Need:
Coffee Filters-2 for each flower
Green pipe cleaners
Markers
Construction paper
Start by decorating the filters with markers.
Dots, Squiggles, stripes....
Place one filter on top of the another.
Pinch the filters together at the middle,
wrap a pipe cleaner around
and twist, leaving enough for a stem.
Do this for each flower.
Fold a sheet of construction paper in thirds.
Cut out the vase with the sides of the vase remaining
on the folds. Tape the flower stems to center vase shape.
Fold in the vase on the left to cover the stems and make
a pouch by gluing the edges.
Write your message on the remaining vase shape
and close your card.
You can write a note, poem or message on
the front as well. As we did in the illustration,
but write before you attach the flowers.
Give it to mom and watch her smile!
More ways to make a
Mother's Day card:
Cut pictures from an old greeting card.
Fold the edges of the paper in to meet in the middle.
Decorate the outside of the flaps and write a message
inside in the middle. A poem works very well for this card.
Fold the flaps back in and tie the card with a ribbon.
Write a poem or note
on a 3x5 card. Glue a photo of your self on one side of the card. Decorate the edges with glitter, ribbon or markers to make a frame. Make 2 holes on the top with a hole punch. Lace and tie a ribbon through the holes or slide a flower through them, or you can even do both!
