Happy Mothers Day

A very special Happy Mothers Day to all those wonderful mothers out there. This year my eldest made me a lovely card from her and her little sister, and gave me a charm for my pandora bracelet. My son made me a gorgeous wee pot with a lid in pottery class at school. I spent the morning with my eldest daughter at a Mother and Daughter Breakfast fundraiser, then had lunch with my husband's family at a local cafe, and finally visited my parents for afternoon tea. So it's been fairly full on, but very special.

This year, as my father is ill, I made his card for Mum. I had cased the pattern from the internet, and I'm sorry I can't find whose it was, but altered it to what I had in the cupboard. I chose to use Up,Up and Away stamp set in Pool Party, Blushing Bride and Very Vanilla. Dad was thrilled with the result, and so was Mum. So that is all that matters.

This one from my family to Mum, is in Elegant Eggplant, Melon Mambo, Old Olive and Whisper White. I used a retired DSP on the background. The two Tags Die was embossed with Vintage Wallpaper. The flower was sewn in Whisper White Satin Ribbon, an antique brad is used in the middle of the Elegant Eggplant Scallop Dot Ribbon bow. The Little Leaves sizzlit and Beautiful Wings Embosslit adda little extra to it.

The last one I made was for my Mother n Law. She loves cats and I found the picture of this on Angela Purdie's site www.kintakards.com I just loved it and thought it would be an excellent card to make. It turned out quite well I thought. So thanks Angela for the inspiration. So I hope you all have had a wonderful day. Yours in creating Dee
