I hope you are all well and dry! It is raining here ~ so Dog towels on duty again.
Well, all my Motheris Day cards have been posted today (those that need to be posted that is), most people only have one to contend with I have four ~ don't ask!! All will be revealed over the next few days.
So, today I am sharing the card I made for my actual Mum ~ she doesn't 'do' computers so I know there is no chance of her seeing it before the day.
A funny story ~ when I first started making cards I made a card for my Mum, I can't remember if it was a Birthday card or a Mother's day card, but I had put a lot of effort into it ~ as you do. On speaking to her all she could say was "You could have put the word 'Mum' on it"...... what can I say? So, ever since then I have gone overboard with the 'Mum' bit on her cards and this one is no exception!

Thank you for your lovely comment,to answer your question,no the green twirly bits on my card don't come from Mulberry Crafts they are the stems of the flowers cut off and then twisted round a pokey tool to curl them,so the waste bits really...Hope that helps...
