Happy Mothers' Day!

If you're a UK Mum I hope you've had a lovely day.  Last minute as usual I was making Mothers' Day cards this morning - one for my Mum, one for Malc's Mum.  Fortunately they both like fairies so I kept the gorgeous 'Once Upon a Springtime' Graphic 45 paper out for both of them!  Can't wait to get my hands on some more of this collection :)



I couldn't believe how close that date was on the postmark (except for the year of course!).  I don't remember Mothers' Day being so late before - it usually falls between mine and my Mum's birthdays, the 23rd and the 12th of  March.  What I didn't know was that Mothers' Day is always on the fourth Sunday of Lent (I knew it was related to Easter somehow but didn't know the specifics!!).


Whilst I was in card making mood, I made some little cards for the bookstall at church.  


I do love that hydrangea punch! :)

  4. Yup, I'm lovin' that hydrangea punch too, but seeing as I don't actually own that yet, I now have a need to go to the craft store! Love your cards, and that patterned paper. Happy Mother's Day!
