Pressed Flower Cards for Mother's Day

Steps

1. 01Pick small flowers — pansies, daisies, forget-me-nots, single small leaves. Avoid thick blooms (roses, tulips).
2. 02Layer flowers between two sheets of parchment paper, then between heavy books. Wait 5 to 7 days.
3. 03Cut blank cardstock to A6 size, fold in half.
4. 04Arrange pressed flowers on the front. A single bloom is plenty. Asymmetric is better than centered.
5. 05Brush a thin layer of clear PVA glue on the back of each flower with a fine brush. Press into place.
6. 06Let dry under a book overnight. Write inside in dark ink.
