Kids will love making this Printable Paper Hearts and Flowers Bouquet to present to Mom or Grandma.  You can also adapt this craft to Mother’s Day or any other special occasion  just by changing the color combinations.

Trivia:

Artisans have been crafting paper flowers almost from the moment paper was conceived—and all over the world. As soon as the Chinese invented paper in 100 B.C., they began fashioning it into lanterns, fans, and, of course, flowers.
