    Mother’s Day Contest Results

    Love for the first lady in our lives came in the form of 158 new cards! We were ecstatic to see all you Studioators pour in so much love in the form of fun postcards, cute gifs and touching flash cards for the amazing mothers out there. The response was fantastic and overwhelming with studio card sends crossing 70,000 and studio contributing 61% to the total sends achieved on Mother’s Day.

    To add to the motherhood celebrations we had a contest running and here are the results!

    A. Visualizer with highest US+CA sends for Mother’s Day category (excluding sends on cards for Thank You sub category): teddy won $100

    Ecard by teddy

    Mothers – all that they want from their children is to feel loved and valued in return and this card expresses just that in simple and beautiful words. Soothing use of colors, soft music and virtual hugs by the adorable teddy bear makes this card so “sendable” and it is our top performing card.

    B. For cards that have US+CA sends > 500 and the highest conversion in the same sub category:

    Ecard by poppies

    The best thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother. This ecard by poppies acknowledges this heartfelt emotion and creates a grateful card for a husband to send out to his wife, who has made his house a home and raised their kids with love and affection. A pretty floral backdrop and straightforward message helped poppies win in this subcategory.

    Teddy and poppies managed to cross the contest criteria and emerge winners, apart from them we would like to highlight two more cards which not only caught our attention for their innovative style but also resonated with our users.

    Mother’s Day > Happy Mother’s Day ecard by Daftoons

    Ecard by Daftoons

    The above ecard by Daftoons is a perfect mix of love, fun, freshness and warmth. Babies animated to sing a lovely Mother’s Day song is what makes this card so different and unique. Click on the link above and view it for yourself to know what we’re talking about.

    Mother’s Day > Happy Mother’s Day ecard by SanqunettiDesig

    Ecard by SanqunettiDesig

    Every mother is perfect for their child. Capturing this gratifying emotion, SanqunettiDesig’s ecard does every bit of justice to what we feel for our mothers. The visual of the cat and her kitten wonderfully depicts happiness and the purest form of love which mother and child share.

    That’s all folks!

    Congratulations to both our winners and a big shoutout to all our studioators for creating such heartwarming ecards for Mother’s Day.

    For those who haven’t been able to win this time, please don’t be disheartened as we will have plenty of opportunities in the future.

    We are looking forward to equal excitement and enthusiasm from you all for Father’s Day too.

    Happy Designing and Happy Weekend!

    Let’s Express Ourselves!

     

    Mother’s Day is almost here. Though one day is not enough to celebrate our amazing mothers, let’s take this opportunity to thank her, make her feel special, loved and cared for unconditionally.

    This is just a last minute shout out from the studio team to inspire you to create some different cards before it’s time!

    We love the cute, humorous and loving cards you have given us so far, however we have noticed that most of the cards have been uploaded only in the subcategories of Happy Mother’s Day and Fun.

    While you’re more than welcome to choose which sub-category suits your cards the best, we would suggest distributing your cards across more categories rather than just sticking to a selected one or two for Mother’s Day. This will prevent your cards from getting lost in the crowd.

    Specifically, you are free to experiment across sub-categories such as:

    • Friends: Wishing friends who are moms, you empathize with them as you do on all occasions as you both know the highs and lows of motherhood.
    • Family: Wish moms in the family like an aunt, cousin etc. You could also create cards which a mom could send to her daughter/ daughter-in-law who is also a mom. Cards with flowers would go well with the sub-category.
    • Thank You: Thank mom for all the trouble you put her through and most importantly her patience! There are a zillion things that our moms do for us, from doing our laundry, to making the most scrumptious dishes, to helping us with our homework and for being a friend forever. Thank mom for all the good and bad times where she stood by you, firm like a solid rock.
    • Special Moms: Make moms by choice (adopted/ foster parents), feel appreciated and loved. They gave you a home and made you the person you are today. Acknowledge them, love them despite the mistakes they made and celebrate the special bond.
    • Love You Mom: Don’t we want to tell her that every day? We love her for the zillion things she does for us every minute of the day. We love her for those warm, fuzzy hugs, for those timely boosts when we are low and for always covering up for us in front of others. Create cards telling your mom how much you love her, but this time express the love differently.
    • Hugs: When all else fails, hugs work wonders! Don’t they? Our moms too need our loving hugs. Create cards which will make them smile widely.
    • Make her Smile: Share those fun moments with her and make her smile. Those silly arguments, the times when she was more of a friend than a mother and when you both ganged up against Dad. Share these moments through a humorous ecard.
    • First Mother’s Day: We all with toddlers know how much of appreciation we need, so capture those moments. Every little emotion that a mother experiences with her first child would work well in this sub-category.

    Here is plenty of room to take inspiration from and design! Churn those creative cells and whisk up some cards for the above sub-categories. Mothers are the reason why we have a happy life. Go back into time, reminisce all those moments and put your heart out on your cards for all the mothers out there!
