Materials YOu’LL NEED

Before we dive into the crafting process, let’s gather all the materials required to make this beautiful Mother’s day card.

MATERIALS :

• Cardstock
• Q-tips
• Rubber Bands
• Kids Paint ( pink, purple, violet )
• Colored Crayola Pen

MOTHER’S DAY CARD CRAFTING PROCESS : STEP BY STEP

• Prepare the card: Begin by folding the cardstock in half to make a card.
• Create Q-tip Bundles: Grab a handful of q-tips and bundle them together using a rubber band. I made three different q-tip bundles with varying thickness to add depth and dimension to our flowers.

• Prepare Paint: Squeeze out small amounts of pink, violet and purple kids paint on a palette or plate. These colors will form the vibrant hues of your lilac flowers.
• Painting the Lilac Flowers: Dip the thickest q-tip bundle into the pink paint and start tapping it diagonally across the card, leaving a space of about 1″ inch from the bottom left corner of the card. Continue tapping to form a corn cob like shape, adjusting the tilt of the q-tip bundle as needed to vary the thickness of the paint.
• Adding Depth: Repeat the process with the remaining q-tip bundles, using purple and violet paint. Tap over the corn cob shape made with pink color to to create layers of color and depth within the lilac flowers. Continue tapping until you’re satisfied with the overall design.
• Repeat the painting process: Make another lilac flower above it.

• Drawing Stems and Leaves: Use a green colored pen to draw stem and leaves beneath the lilac flowers in the lower left corner of the card to complete the look.
• Personalize Your Card: Write a heartfelt message to your mom inside the card, expressing your love and appreciation to brighten her day.
