Need a fun and unique kids craft idea for Father’s Day or Mother’s Day? How about a cell phone selfie? Kids of all ages are carrying cell phones these days and they are the kings and queens of #selfies! Make a card shaped like a phone and attach a selfie from your child to their mom or dad.

Cell Phone Selfie Card - great for Mother's Day or Father's Day!

Cell Phone Selfie Card

So many Father’s Day and Mother’s Day crafts are geared toward the younger set, leaving tweens and teens having to buy a card. Instead, your older kids can have a little fun with this cell phone selfie card, making funny faces or taking their best selfie for mom or dad to remember forever!

Supplies you will need:

  • Cardstock
  • Selfie photo printed on white copy paper
  • Tools: Scissors/cutting board, glue stick, fine point black marker, pencil


Cell Phone Selfie Card - great for Mother's Day or Father's Day! by Amanda Formaro - Crafts by Amanda

It’s easy to make!

  1. Simply cut the cardstock into a rectangle about the same size as a cell phone. You can use your own phone as a guide to draw on any buttons or controls with a pencil. Round the edges of the rectangle with scissors.
  2. Write your message on the back. Something like: “I can’t stop my #selfie from thinking you’re the greatest DAD!”
  3. Trim your photo to fit the area on the front of the card and cover the back completely with the glue stick. Stick it to the front of the card. Use a fine point marker to trace around the photo to give it a border and to trace around any controls or buttons.

Cell Phone Selfie Father's Day Card

Author: Amanda Formaro

Supplies

  • Cardstock
  • Selfie photo printed on white copier paper
  • Tools: Scissors/cutting board glue stick, fine point black marker, pencil

Instructions

  • Cut cardstock into a rectangle about the same size as a cell phone. You can use your own phone as a guide to draw on any buttons or controls with a pencil. Round the edges of the rectangle with scissors.
  • Write your message on the back. Something like: "I can't stop my #selfie from thinking you're the greatest DAD!"

I originally made this project for Spoonful. Spoonful has since closed and the instructions were taken down. I am putting the instructions here until such time that Spoonful projects are redirected to a new home. At that time I will remove the instructions and link directly to the project on their site.
