Hope all the Moms had a great mother's Day yesterday. Mine was different....It started out with my 2 year old "breaking in" to my office and helping himself to my stash of giant candy bars for workshops...that was followed by a 1 1/2 hour screaming tantrum by my 3 year old because his "super hero" clothers were dirty and super heros can't wear all gray apparently.
I did receive a nice card from my hubby along with three books I had picked out from our church bookstore catalog and a big surprise of tickets to go see Phantom of the Opera at the Venetian hotel and casino in June! We are sitting in the 6th row!
I didn'y have to cook - we went over to Dh's Dad's house for swimming and a BBQ. My boys are totally FEARLESS - both were jumping off the "plank". All in all it was a nice day.
Here is the card I made for my MIL (step). It took like 3 minutes but turned out beautifully. The base is kraft cardstock and the sentiment is from Stampin Up's All Holidays set and stamped in Purely Pomegranate. I used some of the wide Purely Pom satin ribbon, put a few pretties flowers together with a clear rhinestone brad - also from the "Pretties" kit, rounded the bottom corners and Voila! I think my inspiration must have come from Steph's cute card here
This is beautiful Jeanna! I love that ribbon! I wish it was still available. :( I actually (don't tell) need to make another Mother's Day card. I thought I had them all done but realized I have more grandmas now that I am married! Haha. The funny thing is, I was going to do another take on my card (since it was so quick and easy) only make it a Mother's Day card. Great minds think alike! :D Thanks for showing me this card. I love it!
