My inspiration came from Dawn Griffith. She made a card very similar to this, and I loved her color combo. I didn't have the same stamp set she used and I don't have any Sahara Sand re-inker, so I improvised and came up with my own version.
The inside is stamped with the sentiments from Wonderful Mother (retiring). The sentiment on the front is from a Verve set I won. :) I loved this card so much that I made a second one for my friend.
Here is the inside of her card. The clear stamps make it so easy to place your words together. I changed "Mother" to "Friend" for her card.
Did you know that you don't just have to send a card to your own mom? You can send it to any special woman in your life who has mothered you or is a great mom to her own kids. For that matter you can send it to a nurturing dad. :) Consider giving a card to someone who has lost their mother or child, especially those who have passed away in the past year. It means a lot to know that somebody cares about their pain.
For many of us Mother's Day can be difficult. Those who do not have a mother or child to spend this special day with are hit the hardest. My heart goes out to you. I pray you have some fond memories to hold you close. I feel blessed that even though I won't be with my mom on Mother's Day I will be able to call her and tell her "I love you".
Creative Blessings,
Heather North
