How To Make
Place two pipe cleaners next to each other and twist together at both ends. Take one twisted end and gently fold it back on itself bringing it towards the bottom end, to create a heart shape.
Apply glue to the underside of the heard all around, and stick it down to the card. Place a few pieces of tape gently over the heart in order to hold it in place until the glue dries.
Leave to dry. Once the glue is dry remove all the tape.
Glue pom poms in the spacce inside the heard and leave to dry.
Once dry, add a message to the top of the card.
Use a thin tape to mask out the word 'Mum' on a card blank.
Let your child go crazy with felt tip pens.
Peel away the tape to reveal the word, outlining it if needed.
Create a pattern across the front of your card using strips of different coloured washi tape. Add as many strips as you like, trimming down the ends of the tape to ensure it looks neat.
First, write 'mum' in glue near the bottom of the card blank. Then cover the glue in glitter and leave it to one side to dry, before shaking off the excess glitter.
Next, use washi tape to attach a pressed flower in the space above your wording.
