Mother's Day!


This is the card that I made for my Mother for Mother's Day.  I have a scrapbook program and it makes lovely photo collages, so I can make my own cards.  I understand that Hallmark might be upset..I am sorry I buy very few cards anymore, I make mine so they are one of a kind, and special..just like the people they are given to.

Far Guy and I took both of my parents out for lunch one day this week, my Mother liked her homemade card very much.  There are five generations on this card.  I have featured most of these photos recently in my Wistful Wednesday posts. 

Happy Mother's Day to my Mom and all of my readers that are Mom's, I hope you have a special day:)
** The scrapbook program I use is called Memory Mixer

Connie, you and my Mom-in-Law could go into business together. Beautifully done! And, having been the recipient of such gorgeous creations, I know how much the receiver appreciated it.

It's lovely to have mum alive, what a marvelous day.

I made my husband sing over the phone to his mum, but he said, she wasn't educated to know it.,
