Pinterest is perfect for handmade card ideas, such as quilled heart cards, fingerprint flower cards, fork painting cards, and more. A handmade card is one of the most accessible projects available!
Yummy Breakfast in Bed

Delight her with the smell of her favorite breakfast food while she wakes up. Breakfast tacos topped with cheese, eggs, and bacon or French toast with iced coffee are sure to win her heart. She might still guard the family’s secret recipes, but it’s a great way to show her you’re ready to take them on!
