No matter how big or small you are - mums love homemade things. It shows them that you've taken the time - and that's what counts the most. If you're looking for a quick gift idea for Mother's Day, we have just the thing for you: three lovingly designed templates for a personalised Mother's Day card that you can easily print out and design yourself. 

Whether you use watercolours, felt-tip pens or coloured pencils - there are no limits to your creativity. And the best thing is that the cards are ready in no time at all and can be designed wonderfully together with children. This turns crafting into a small family project with a heart. 

Together with a beautiful bouquet of flowers, your Mother's Day surprise is perfect - personal, creative and made with love.

How can I design a Mother's Day card myself?

Designing your own Mother's Day card is a wonderful way to express your love and appreciation creatively. You don't need any special prior knowledge - just a little time, simple materials and a lot of heart. 

It's best to start with a piece of coloured paper or sturdy cardboard that you fold in half. Now you can decorate the front as you wish - for example with painted motifs, pressed flowers, pretty washi tape or personal photos. Small stickers, stamps or beautiful lettering can also make your card extra special. 

Of course, your personal message should not be missing on the inside. Whether it's a short, loving sentence or a few handwritten memories - the main thing is that it comes from the heart. 

Especially nice: crafting is also a wonderful activity to do together with children. This turns the card into a real heartfelt project - and Mother's Day into a very special moment. 

Tip: If you're short on time, you can also print out our free template and colour it in individually. This turns even a last-minute idea into a loving highlight.
