SENIOR LADY: EASY DIY MOTHER'S DAY GIFT IDEAS #2














The online Mother's Day greeting cards for 2026 are

 very unique.  Colors generated by computers and 

"AI" seem more vibrant.The graphics are vivid and

more concise. There were multiple lettering styles 

of the words Mother, Mom, and Mama. Most Mothers

 should get a loving feeling when they receive these

 cards.  Viewing these letter styles gave me ideas for

my next Mother's Day gifts. Endless possibilities for

creating scrapbooks, journals, and DIY greeting cards

exist. I'll purchase a printer eventually. I don't mind

utilizing my artistic skills in the meantime.  Here are

the details for a last minute Mother's Day gift:


MOTHER'S DAY MINI SCRAPBOOK:


NEED:


8 inch x 10 inch, Marker\ Watercolor Pad

Permanent Markers, Medium & Fine tip:

Mother's Favorite Colors

Gem Stickers, Assorted Colors

One Hole Puncher ( optional)

Matching Yarn for Tying Scrapbook,  (optional)


INSTRUCTIONS:

Note: Printer not used. Free-handed designs.


Fold sheet of white paper from pad, in half 

twice to create, 5 inch rectangles. Cut pages 

with the folded edges. Should have 8 pages

including the scrapbook cover.


 Choose letter styles for the word, Mama. 

View online greeting cards for design ideas.

I practiced handwriting the styles for the word,

"Mama" on separate sheet of paper. I also chose 

colors for each word and cover design before 

starting the project. Here are the finished designs

 for my mini scrapbook:




















I embellished the mini scrapbook cover & each

page with matching gems.





























The pages of  mini scrapbook were embellished

with floral designs, dots,  &  matching colored 

gems. I decided to secure my scrapbook with 

tied  matching yarn. Used two hole puncher

 to make 2 holes on the left side.











My goal was to create an easy Mother's Day 

gift that children and teens could also do.

The pages can be created free-handed or

with a printer. 



TIPS: 


**Mini scrapbook pages can be secured 

with double-sided tape, staples, cords,

 book rings, & ribbons.

**Other words for a mother can used:

Mom, Ma, Mommy, Mum, Mamma 

**Design your mini scrapbook 

as you wish. My mini scrapbook 

is to be used for demonstration 

purpose only

**Online digital letter designs are available 

for small fee. The downloads can be used

on t-shirts too. Here are images of some

designs:
