Happy Mother's Day!
This year, just like every year, Mother's Day took me by surprise. I don't know why. You'd think I'd remember that day, of all days. But it's not a big deal to me and sometimes it's all I can do to remember to send a card out. Such was the case this year, so I had to make cards for the two mothers in my life on the fly. I brought a lot of my stuff up here to work and put it all together this morning. The cards are the same except for the color cardstock: one light and one a shade darker. I printed out a picture of cherry blossoms (which seems to be my new obsession since I got that cherry blossom punch), rounded the corners and mounted it on grey cardstock. I then tied a pink ribbon around it and attached it to a square card. I made the flowers with cherry blossoms punched out of white cardstock, and small suns out of pink cardstock and a 1/8" circle punch out of darker pink cardstock for the centers.

What pretty mother's day cards. Your moms will love them. So springy and feminine.
Thanks -- actually, my mother-in-law did comment on what a pretty card it was. She usually doesn't.
I've been having good luck with finding pictures on the internet and turning them into cards. I may explore that a little more. I mean, why not. I have access to some of the best printing equipment money can buy here at work.
