Mother's Day Free Printables!



Home is where Mom is!  That's always true.  Sometimes you just want your mom.  No one else will do.  I created this sweet cottage printable to give to my mom.  I'm sharing it with you, in case you would like to give one to your mom.



I cleaned up the image and added the sentiment.   Before I framed it, I decided to add a pretty wash of blue watercolor to the sky.  So I printed the image on 90lb watercolor paper.  

Watercoloring the sky isn't a necessary step, but I think it looks pretty and it was fun to do.  You don't need fancy watercolors - even the cheapest will work great!

After I got it framed, I decided a pretty tag was in order.   So I created some printable Mother's Day tags, too.



I printed my tags on 90lb watercolor so they would match the cottage print.  You can print them on cardstock, too.  

You'll notice that these tags have no lines.  They are 90% finished.  You get to cut and embellish them however you want!  I really love that - they are so versatile and the possibilities are endless!  



You can die cut them, emboss or punch them!  Add pretty colored hole reinforcers, too.  Use twine or ribbon....



Here is one that I left long - could be a bookmark.



Here is the one I cut into a flag shape to use for the tag on my framed cottage.

  1. Oh Lori--I think this is my favorite of all your posts! Absolutely beautiful gift & you've given me so many ideas for tag! A little tearful thinking of my mom who's been gone so many years, but I was very lucky to have her love & guidance until I was 40.

  3. These are wonderful. And the saying 'home is where mom is' applies to me. We moved a lot when I was a kid and no town/place felt like home. But wherever mom was, that was home to me. Mom died in 2012 and I won't feel home again until I am with her again in Heaven. What a day that will be! Mamma was the best.
