I could play with colors for days on end, but I tried to just stick to one of each of the main colors. This still left me with 14 colors options. Which color is your mom’s favorite?
Originally, I had just the simple text, but I wanted to add a little more character, and the arrows were the perfect thing! I know some folks prefer the more simple text, so I have both options available for you!
I did start to get a little crazy with color combinations for the arrows, and had to rein myself in. I decided to keep it simple so all the cards match, and keep the arrows the same color as the accent color of the text.
This free printable Mother’s Day Thank You Card is perfect not only for Mother’s Day, but anytime you just want to say Thanks, Mom! For simply being the Best! That may include mom’s birthday, letting mom know you are thinking of her or even for things like thanking mom for doing your laundry, for helping with wedding planning, for watching the kids or just plain ole being there for you when you need her.
If you call your Mom something else, like Mum, Mama, etc, let me know in the comments below, and I will work on that variation. In the same sense, if you prefer a different size card, let me know that too!
Size & Format Details
This mother’s day card printable comes in a 4″ x 6″ size. The PDF format will print on a 8 1/2″ x 11″ paper (the standard paper size). The PNG format is a 4″ x 6 ” size and can be uploaded into Design Space and cut with a Cricut machine – I use my Cricut Maker 3.
For printing at home, the PDF version is the easiest and best option as it’s high quality and retains it’s proportions.
For printing at a local print shop or photo-printing company such as CVS, Walgreens, Costco, UPS, Fedex, Office Depot, etc, you will select a Document option (not card), upload the PDF and then choose a nice, heavier weight paper.
For printing with your Cricut machine, you will upload the PNG into a new project, size it correctly to 4″ x 6″, add a fold line if desired, then Make It with your desired weight paper.
What Weight Paper Should I use to Print Printables?
I recommend printing onto standard letter sized 8 1/2″ x 11″ cardstock as regular paper is quite thin, may curl, and can make the printable appear to have a gray tinge. While my go-to is white, I think some of these would print nicely on a variety of colored paper.
Medium weight 65 lb to 80 lb cardstock is home printer friendly, and easily available in packs including in craft stores like JoAnn and Michaels.
Heavy weight 110 lb cardstock is not so home friendly, but might be a better choice if working with a local printer or printing company. To print at home, you most likely will have to manually feed this heavy weight paper so can be a bit more finicky.
What size Envelope Should I use for a 4″ x 6″ Card?
For a 4″ x 6″ card, you’ll want to use an A4 size envelope, which measures 4 1/4″ x 6 1/4″. There are so many fun color and print options!
Can I sell printable cards I print myself?
Yes! You can print your own cards, and sell those physical cards either online or in person. You cannot sell, share, copy and paste or claim my digital files as your own – that would be copyright infringement and stealing. You also must take your own photos for your listings – you cannot use my photos to sell your cards.

For non-subscribers (or to show extra support – thank you!), you can also purchase the digital version of this printable card bundle on Etsy, including access to the Dropbox and Google Drive folders where you can download the PDF and/or PNG from.
Once you print your card out:
For PDF: Cut just inside the outer black rectangle – you can do so with scissors, but my favorite way is with a paper trimmer – then fold the card in half.
For PNG/Cricut: Stick the cardstock onto your cutting mat – I use the Light Grip with up to 110 cardstock. If you’ll be using your Cricut to crease the card for you, then you’ll want to make sure the Cricut Scoring Stylus (this is what I use as it came with the add-on pack when I bought my Cricut Maker 3) or Cricut Scoring Wheel is installed into the A compartment – and change the tool if necessary on screen (because it will actually default to the Scoring Wheel every time, so I have to change it to the Scoring Stylus), and then you’re all set to start cutting. Remove by flipping your cutting mat upside down and pulling it away from your card (versus peeling your card from the mat) and fold.
Fill in your note on the inside of the card and it’s ready to go!
