We have already had Mother's Day here in the UK but I know it is coming up soon in many parts of the world. The Mother's Day card craft that we are sharing today is really easy to make using the free Mother's Day card printable that you can download at the bottom of the page.
The free printable has the saying 'If mothers were flowers I'd pick you', which is a perfect quote for Mother's Day. We also used the same quote when making our spin art photo flowers which have always been really popular.
By using fingerprints to decorate the printable card young children can easily create a keepsake card that will be loved and treasured by mom. You might want to take a look at all our diy keepsake ideas as I'm sure mom would love a small homemade gift to go with her card!
We also have a full set of Mother's Day Card Printables for you to add fingerprints, handprints or footprints to (see image below for some of the cards included).

Mother's Day Card Printable Craft
I would recommend printing the Mother's Day card template onto thin card rather than paper.
There are 3 versions of the printable available. We have 2 printable card designs that can be folded in half to create A5 sized cards. One has a border and the Mother's Day saying 'If Mother's Were Flowers I'd Pick You' with a blank space for you to add your own flower design. The second printable design has three flower stems and flower centres so you can easily add fingerprints around the centre of the flowers to create a cute keepsake.
We also have an A4 poster sized printable so if you want to add handprint or footprint flowers there is room. You could also use the larger printable to do a more detailed flower picture.

There are many ways that these printable cards can be used but I love the idea of using fingerprints to make it extra special for mom. The easiest card to make is the card with flower stems on ready for adding fingerprints.
To make this card simply dip your fingers into paint and add painty fingerprints around the outside of the yellow circles to create fingerprint flowers.
You can use any paints for this craft but my personal favourites are the crayola glitter paints as I love the colours. You could provide all the colours or just give the children a selection of colour co-ordinated paints. Adding buttons or other collage materials is a nice added touch.
If the children that you are doing this Mother's Day craft with are slightly older or if you want to give toddlers and preschoolers a little more freedom you could use the blank printable Mother's Day card so that they can create their own flower design.
They could draw flowers, stick on collage, design their own fingerprint flowers or do a mixture of everything!
Another option if the cards seem a little too small is to make an A4 poster sized flower picture.
