Mother's Day Card Templates You Can Edit and Print Online

Choose a Style That Suits Your Mom

Words That Come From the Heart

You do not need poetry. Think of one thing your mom did that you remember and say thank you for it. "Thank you for waiting up for me every night, even when you were tired" says more than a general line about love. If you are stuck, begin with "I am grateful for" and finish the sentence three different ways. Choose the one that makes you smile.

Gift Certificates and Vouchers

A voucher turns time and attention into a present. Popular choices include a spa day, a dinner out, a shopping trip, a day of chores done for her or an experience such as a cooking class. Fill in the details, add the date it is valid and sign it. Small businesses can also use the voucher designs to sell Mother's Day gift credit to customers.

Making Cards From Photos

1. Choose a bright photo with a clear subject, such as a family picnic or an old holiday.
2. Replace the sample image in the template with your own.
3. Rewrite the message and sign it with your name or nickname.
4. Download the card as a PDF for printing on thick paper.
5. Write a short extra line by hand for a personal finish.

Timing and Delivery

If you are sending a card by post, mail it a week early. If you are far away, send a PNG or JPG by message on the morning of Mother's Day, then post the printed copy so she has something to keep. For social media, choose a square design and tag your mom, which she will usually love.

Beyond Mothers: Others Who Deserve a Card

Grandmothers, aunts, mentors, stepmothers and friends who mother us all deserve thanks. The templates work for them too. Simply change the wording and keep the design. For other family occasions, see Father's Day and birthday cards.

Gift Ideas That Go With the Card

A card is lovely on its own, but a small gesture makes it unforgettable. Plant a pot of her favorite flower, cook breakfast, frame a photo you both like or write down a list of things she taught you. Tuck the card into the gift, and read it aloud if she enjoys that. Time and attention are the presents that people keep.
