Mother's Day Cards

 I usually send out three Mother's Day cards - one for my dear daughter, one for dear grand daughter and one for a dear dear friend which I will post on my Repeat Impressions blog.  Here are the two for daughter and grand daughter 

Not much stamping except for the sentiment on the inside and the bouquet of flowers on the first one.  I had a graphic 45 paper pad in my "stash" and it is divided off by month.  I choose May and it had the perfect sheet with many options for mother's day.  I was able to get 2 cards out of one sheet as the sheets were 8 x 8. The first card used a SU retired bouquet - and I die cut a sheet of velum to go over the focal image.  I'm trying to use some of my "old" stamping supplies and I thought the vellum overlay was perfect.   My second card I made a slide and lock gatefold card - just pullup on the little purple bow and the gatefold opens. 

I usually put a little gift with the card as they are both pretty good moms.
