We’ve all heard the power of a vision board. Combine that with love of your mother and you have the perfect homemade Mother’s Day gift.

This is a simple and cute card you can make with little ones to show Mom just how much they love her. All you need to do is cut out two outlines of your child’s hands and connect them with a strip of paper that is long enough to show Mom just how much she is loved — to scale of course (there’s not enough paper for the actual amount).

All you have to do is spend an afternoon writing all the different reasons why you love your mom and throw them in a jar. Wrap it up in a pretty bow and have the best present of Mother’s Day 2012. Your siblings will all wish they came up with a gift so great.
