A Daily Dose Of DIY will walk you through step by step to make this.

She used the free Gerber Daisy pattern from Jennifer Maker, so you'll have to sign up for the Jennifer Maker site to be able to access the free resources there. (Isn't that a great flower?? I love it!)

A Daily Dose Of DIY includes the free monogram svg on her own site, but you'll also have to sign up there to access that free resource library as well.

But wouldn't this be a great project to use with some of Grandma's button collection?

Not the exact svg above, but here are some "Moms Are Like Buttons" svgs:

Not the same svg, but a similar version - free

This one appears to have been made with a circle flower punch and pop dots. You can cut the flowers using the free svg here - cut them in two different sizes, then cut a small circle for the center.

This is a project from Michaels.. but imagine it with a photo of a mother and a daughter, and made with paper flowers...

Try the Bromello or Brannboll fonts for a similar look

The exact font used here is from Stacy's Digital Designs. It can be found on So Fontsy.

This is another pinterest find with a spam link - but I love the flowers in a heart, with the text at the bottom like this!

A Free SVG Of This Saying

These are obviously meant for new babies, but aren't they gorgeous?

Another idea...

Use a blocky font for Mom, weld the text, and then add a rectangle and slice it out - adding the names and hearts in the middle. It's the same process you use to make a split monogram, as shown here.
