British Mother's Day


The British mothering Sunday in March 22nd this year and this is why I have made this card early in the eyes of anyone American...I'm lucky I get 2 Mother's Days ;) part of the perk of living so far away from home.
This card is for my Mum...the one who likes butterflies...you know who you are hahaha! (yes I know you are reading this too!)
Mother's Day is the day after my Niece Lauren's Birthday...Lauren has already seen her card thanks to Grandma tipping her off (ballerina below) so now it's Lauren's turn to call Grandma and tell her that her card is on my blog now ;) it's only fair! Hahaha!
I don't mind people seeing them before they get the cards as the photos NEVER seem to do them justice!
Here's what I used...
Lizzie Anne Designs Au Naturale set
Spellbinders Labels One
V-15, V-17, Y-17, YR68, 0 Copics
Patterned paper is Basic Grey
Shimmerz - Marigold
Prima Center kissed Ivory gem flowers
This was made with the Lizzie Anne template of the week which you can find here. I really enjoy doing these!

OH so pretty, Zee! I love that butterfly :) My mum has been stateside now for 30+ years and we celebrate in May now - but I know in her heart she still *thinks* of March! You have inspired me to make her a surprise early card - thank you!! x0x0x0
