Make your own Mother's Day Card


I had my Mom in mind when I made this card. She might be over seventy, but she still loves all things girly like me! Here's a super easy way to create a card with scraps of fabric and any embellishments and ribbon you have on hand.
*
Meine Mutter mag zwar über siebzig sein, dennoch mag sie immer noch alles was mädchenhaft und sweet ist (so wie ich)! Diese Muttertagskarte habe ich speziell für sie gebastelt. Sie ist ruckzuck mit ein paar Stoffresten, Schleifenband und was man sonst noch so vorrätig hat gemacht.

You'll need / Man braucht

Cardstock
border punch / Bordürenstanzer
scraps of fabric / Stoffreste
pinking shears / Zackenschere
glue / Kleber
embellishments / Dinge zum Verzieren
sewing machine / Nähmaschine

 
Step One to Four / Schritt Eins bis Vier

Cut the card size required from the card stock. Fold in half and punch both edges.
With pinking shears cut as many small triangles from the fabric as necessary to make the bunting. Stick on to the card front. Stitch in place. Make sure you stitch from one edge of the card to the other in one continuous line. Add ribbons, tags, stickers - anything you like to make it a special Mother's Day card!

*

Gewünschte Kartengröße aus dem Cardstock schneiden. Zur Hälfte falten und beide Kanten ausstanzen. Mit der Zackenschere so viele kleine Dreiecke aus den Stoffresten schneiden wie auf die Karte passen.In der gewünschten Reihenfolge auf die Vorderseite der Karte kleben. Die Wimpel mit einem Geradstich verbinden, dabei von einer Seite der Karte bis zur anderen durchgehend steppen. Zuletzt mit Schleifchen, Sticker, Tags verzieren - fertig ist eure einzigartige Muttertagskarte!



Happy Crafting!

Advance happy mothers day to your mom Duni! I suddenly remember your sweet photo with her that is posted in your Facebook account. I think I should thank your mother too because without her, I wouldn't have another friend and person I admire in the blogosphere.

just realized that i always answer your comments by email, and today for the first time i saw that the address is actually no-reply. guess there are a lot of answers you didnt get.

Vielen Dank liebe Duni! Can’t wait for the mag to arrive!!! Never read it before but of course heard lots about it all over blogland .
Dir auch einen ganz ganz wunderschönen Sonntag mit viiiiiiiel Sonne (kann Euch welche schicken wenn nötig, hier sind wir im wolkenlosen Dauerzustand...)

Lots of love

It's adorable! (But I wouldn't expect anything less from you!) I have to remember to get a border punch--they make such a great addition to card stock.
