Mother's Day Card Templates

Mother's Day cards are kept, often for years, which is an argument for writing something specific rather than choosing the prettiest card. These four give the message the room to be worth keeping.

Peony Bloom and Gold Wreath are the floral ones. Plain Thanks and Modern Mum are simpler, and print well if the card is coming from a child who wants to add their own drawing.

Say the thing you assume she already knows - that advice comes from writing for a parent, and it is the one line most of these cards are missing.

Common questions

What do you write in a Mother's Day card?

One thing she did that you only understood later. Cards that name something particular get kept; cards that thank her for everything get read once.

Can children use these?

Yes - print one of the plainer designs and there is space for a child to write or draw inside. Fold the 5×7 card to A6 for that.

What if Mother's Day is a difficult day?

Keep it short and plain, and skip the celebration wording. Plain Thanks with two quiet lines is often the right card.
