Mother's Day Card

Mother's Day is right around the corner. So the theme of this week is Celebrating Mother's Day.  We talk about Mother's Day, date (orientation to time), why we celebrate Mother's Day, and what we can say to mommy.  Then we make our special-special Mother's Day card. This is how we make the card.

First, fold a paper in half (white side out). Then trace the child's hand. Make sure child's thumb and index finger are directed towards the folding edge of the paper. So when you unfold the paper after cutting, you have two identical hands on the entire paper.

Try to make the half heart shape with the thumb and index finger on the paper.

Cut the shape of the hands.  Try not to cut the index finger and the thumb on the folding edge. Try not to cut off your fingers on the paper.

Unfold the paper and paste it on a contraction paper. Make sure your have a heart shape in the middle. You can glue another color paper for the heart shape and make it stands out.

Then you can decorate the card. You can write sweet messages to mommy. You can draw some flowers and hearts on it.  You can also use different materials for decorations such as pom-poms, pre-cut forms, and so on.

We used some scrapbook materials for this.

Have fun~! Happy Mother's Day~!!
