Another Way to Make Mother’s Day Cards at Home

In addition to the fun printables in the list above, I want to share an even craftier way to make Mother’s Day cards without having to go to the store:

Make incredible Mother’s Day cards with a Cricut craft machine.

A Cricut allows you to create beautiful handmade cards that you can really be proud of! Making things with a Cricut is so much fun, too! I adore mine and I love how easy it is to make greeting cards with my Cricut.

If you don’t have a Cricut cutting machine, no worries. They are always running excellent sales. Visit the Cricut store now to learn more. I definitely recommend you check out their newest cutting machine, the Cricut Joy. It’s a more affordable option that still allows you to do tons of projects, including homemade greeting cards in minutes.

When you own a Cricut, you get access to the Cricut Design Space, and it’s amazing database of project tutorials. Here are a couple examples of the fantastic handmade cards you can make with the Cricut at home:

Order Mother’s Day Cards Instead

If the printable route isn’t hitting the mark, and getting that Cricut isn’t possible right now, then I have one more suggestion – Minted! You can order gorgeous Mother’s Day cards from Minted (for as low as $3.98) that are created by independent artists.

Greeting Cards from Minted

Minted is a design marketplace that gets creative content from a global community of independent artists. They hold regular design challenges and then sell the best content in the form of art, home décor, greeting cards, and stationery, on their website. It’s seriously so cool. I love buying from Minted because I love supporting independent artists who put themselves out there like that.

Minted also has this really cool feature where you can sign up for a greeting card subscription. You get reminders about when to send cards and it’s always free shipping. The more cards you purchase with your subscription, the better price per card you receive. Plus, your membership will auto-renew at that same per card price the next year. If you don’t want to auto-renew, that’s fine, too. Just select “turn off auto renew” when picking your cards.

Minted More Membership

While you are there – you might also consider the Minted More membership. You can save even more money on cards and gifts without having to leave your house. And why would you want to do that? When you buy greeting cards at the store you not only have to go into the store, (and who wants to do that? lol) but more importantly you will get charged way more money than you should.

With the Minted More membership you get:

  • 30% off holiday cards
  • 20% off all other Minted products year-round
  • Free shipping
  • A gift box filled with 9 luxury cards with envelopes, including 5 letterpress and foil-pressed designs
  • A gift wrap kit with 8 gift wrap looks, artfully styled with gift tags and ribbon and 7 luxe gift bags
  • The Minted Coloring Book with 58 unique coloring pages, designed by 51 award-winning Minted artists
