50 (52) things I love about you

Updated On 5th May, 2019

If you follow me on Pinterest then you will know that’s where I got inspired for this gift. It’s such a cute idea, and I just love a cute idea.

For more cute inspiration check out my Mother’s Day DIY breakfast post, and my 10 ways to show someone you love them post.

If you are on the ball (I was clearly daydreaming when I did it) then you will realise that, yes- there are actually 52 playing cards in a pack and I am useless…

Let’s ignore that. 

To make these cute ‘things I love about you’ cards…

You need: a pack of cards, a little piece of paper (just smaller than the card box), sellotape, a permanent marker or sharpie. And lots of wonderful things you love about your nearest and dearest.

  1. I wrote a little message on one piece of paper and then ‘laminated’ the paper onto the box with bits of sellotape. You could also use sticky back plastic. 
  2. Now the hard bit… 52 things. Joking! I actually had to narrow it down because there were just too many. Write each thing onto a card with a sharpie… and hey presto!

Top tip: I split each suit into a category related to me and Mum. This helped me not repeat myself and made sure I covered all areas of Mum’s wonderfulness.
