From my heart ~

I was at the store the other day.
And yes, you all know which one, right?
Because I live in a little country town we HAVE one
and can't seem to avoid it!!

Anyway...I looked at the card selection for the perfect
Mother's Day card for my sweet mom.
Nothing.
Nothing really grabbed me.
Yes, there were pretty cards but still,
I hesitated.

I admit that I did hesitate at five bucks a pop,
but I also kept telling myself...
make your own.
Say what YOU want to say!

So I did.
Here is my creative effort for today
but truly?
I'm so pleased!

This card was created by her daughter
and speaks from the heart...
I love my mama so much ~





Never hesitate to make your own cards...
and share your own thoughts and words.

Wishing you a wonderful Wednesday precious friends ~
hugs and love,
Dawn

I never can find the like button on here. Love it Dawn. Love that your sweet Momma will be getting such a special card for such a special day.

This is so pretty. I just finished making cards for my m-i-l and my d-i-l. My mother passed 13 yrs ago, and the day seemed so empty after that. But I've got a wonderful d-i-l, like the daughter I never had, and she's a wonderful mom.
I also make cards for my sons on Father's day. (My did passed when I was 10, so I never even got to experience a "grown up" Father's Day.) My boys are great dad's so I like to honor them on the day.

Dearest Dawn, I am not an envious person except for one thing...girls that still have their sweet Mothers. God bless you both...I miss my own Mom more now than I ever have!
A beautiful card and perfect sentiment. Love to you my friend, Penny

Dawn,
It's beautiful & more than that it speaks from your heart. Something Hallmark can't do.
Happy Mom's Day, hope you milk it like me:)

So lovely.

More lovely than one to be found at any store... your own thoughts especially for her. Very dear! (I worked hard to get my son to sign his own cards. Just sign them yourself. It's not that I don't love my daughter-in-law, I do, but I wanted to see his hand. See? It's the simple things that mean the most.)

What a precious daughter you must be to your mother, she will adore the card but nearly as much as she adores you. Have a beauty filled day sweet friend.

Beautiful, beautiful card, Dawn! Love the note inside, also--your mother will appreciate this wonderful card, made by your hands, a gift from the heart, much more, I expect than a store-bought one!
