Mother's Day

 It's been so much fun, designing our Mother's Day Cards this year.  We sent them out to a few of our dear friends, hoping that they would bring bright smiles and lots of love from us!
  


Made from brightly coloured fabrics and hand sewn with violet stitching, we really enjoyed sketching them out and playing around with the designs.  Just one of our journal etchings, brought to life!  

If our recipients liked them half as much as we enjoyed creating them, then we are thrilled; designing was a blast!  


This is the most gorgeous and perfectly shaped rose we have ever seen.  There's even a bud next to it!!!  Ahhh, our day is complete!  Show us roses on a downtrodden day, and we're instantly revived! 

Happy Mother's Day!

    1. Thank you to our sweet friend from the U.K! We always love hearing from you. Are their any special celebrations that are done on mother's day where you are? Here is all about the flowers, cards, beauty products, or jewelry, etc.

      Our favorite thing this year was having a mother's day tea! It was absolutely lovely!!!

  2. I love the texture of your cards! It is like a mini quilt sample and greeting card rolled into one!

    The rose is divine! As someone who shares your affinity for roses this one is a fine specimen, indeed!
