Mother’s Day is just a few short days away, but it’s not too late to put together a special handmade gift. These fun and whimsical note cards are sure to make Mom smile, and are super quick and easy to create, thanks to the help of Therm O Web’s fabulous double-sided iCraft™ Adhesive Sheets. Personalize them with Mom’s favorite colors, add a quick hand-stamped sentiment, and throw in some pretty envelopes, and you will create a thoughtful and useful gift that Mom will love, in no time at all.

To begin, trim a sheet of iCraft™ double-sided Adhesive into strips. Peel off the liner, and apply the sheet, adhesive side down onto the back side of your chosen fabric.

Using a fine-tipped pen, draw half-circle shapes onto the right side of your fabric. Add simple dots for the eyes and small curved arcs for the wings. For each card you will need one large bird and one small bird. Trim out all the birds from your fabric.

Peel off the paper liner from the iCraft™ Adhesive and adhere bird shapes to a panel of cream cardstock. Tip: burnish the back of the iCraft adhesive sheet with a bone folder or the back of a spoon before removing the liner. This will make the adhesive bond more strongly with the fabric and it will be much easier to remove the paper liner this way.

Once you’ve adhered your birds, draw in the legs, tails, and beaks. Stamp sentiments onto banners die cut from cream cardstock, then adhere the banners under the smallest bird using Therm O Web’s Mini Tape Runner. Trim off excess banner cardstock from the side of the panel.

Then round the two right corners of each bird panel and adhere to a kraft cardstock card base. Add a small bit of machine stitching to the edge of the banners, if desired.

Enjoy!
