Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to all of you who are celebrating and hugs to those for whom it's not such a happy occasion.


This is the card that I made for my Mum. You may recognise it as it's based on one of the demos that Barbara Gray did on TV this month. I loved it and had to have a go. I already know that Mum loved it too as she phoned at 8.30am this morning to say so! It's getting framed and going on the wall, so that's a nice result.


I chose peach (Adirondack Mountain Rose) for mine as it's very "Mum". If you want to see how to make it Barbara Gray has blogged hers here.


I made this one for my mother-in-law.

It's uses the same journaling stamps, only this time they're on a Samantha Walker 3D box card that I cut on my Cameo. The base card is K & Co double sided paper but I added more detail to it with the stamps.


Inside it has the beautiful Freesias stamp and Mother verse.


Some adhesive pearls and a dragonfly brad finish it off.

The stamps I've used are all by Clarity except for the round Mother's Day ones which are by Lili of the Valley.

I hope you all have a lovely day and "Happy Mother's Day" to my Mums. I was hoping that Maya would bring me breakfast in bed this morning but I was out of luck. Still, if by some miracle she had managed to make it, she'd only have eaten it on her way upstairs!

  3. Beautiful cards, Lynne... I must have a 'go' at the journalling card it's so clever, I also love the box card. I had a silhouette for Christmas but as yet I can only manage the basics ... I need to play more!! As for furries making breakfast all I can say is I got up and made my own toast and coffee and Jasper mugged me for half of it!! he can smell toast being made from a mile off !! xx
