This isn't an easy post today. My own mother has been gone for two years now; and this is one of the "harder" holidays to make a card for.
But, I do have a few friends that have taken her place. And for them, I have created this card. I hope that all mother's have a great day tomorrow! Cherish the moments that you have with your loved ones!
This card is apropos for the Crafty Ho's Challenge, Tuesday Morning Sketches #44, and Designed2Delights first May challenge.
The image was colored with Copics, the die cut flowers were a gift from my SCS friend Sheena, and the background paper is from CTMH, embossed with my first folder (woo hoo). The sentiment is a plain mother (and it doesn't follow Melissa's sketch exactly, but I think you get the idea).
Thanks for looking and hope to see you Monday ~ hopefully, my darling son will have a great Mother's Day planned for me!!
