Writing a Card for Your Mother on Mother's Day


Mother's Day is coming and you have started preparing for it already. After all we all want it to be an extra special occasion for our mothers.

Every other preparation is going on as planned, but writing a Mother's Day card is troubling you. How to express everything you are feeling in just a few lines or words? To begin with, one has to remember when writing any kind of message is that it should come straight from your heart. Then, whether you are writing a message, a note, poem or even a song or story, it does not matter. What matters is the honesty of your feelings. If it is a heartfelt message then the end result of your effort has to be beautiful, there is no two ways about it. The language, the presentation can do with some work after you are done with the write-up. The corrections though, should not change the overall meaning of your message.

If you are making a traditional homemade card and are willing to put in that extra bit of creative effort, there are many ways this can be done. A card can be decorated and made more presentable with just a little creativity. Glitter, colour pencils, water and oil colours, highlights can be used to add colour and shine to your card. Also, paper, cloth, card stock, buttons, threads and other add ons can be used to make your card look prettier.

A scrapbook, a diary or a collage are all forms of cards, if we look at a card in terms of Mother's Day gifts or Mother's Day presents or as a means of expressing ourselves. Either ways, cards can be as elaborately done or as simple as a single message on a card procured when doing gift shopping.
