MIL's Mother's day Card



I made this card for my MIL. I used this sweet Tilda blowing heart kisses. I am going to get hubby to write a nice message on the inside. He hates signing cards because he says his handwriting is bad. But I insist, it is so much more special for his Mom if it's written in his hand I think! I love my kids writing no matter how it looks, even a scribble. He tries every year to not sign but I will not let him win....lol!!!!

The card is for the following challenges - Magnolia Down Under - sketch (I placed the oval on the right since she needed space to blow into), Charisma, Die Cut Dreams, Pink Elephant, Bizzy Becs Creatilious, and Incy Wincy.

this is just beautiful and she will love it! i agree with you.... it doesn't mean as much - or feel as if it comes from the heart - if he doesn't sign in his own "chicken scractch". look how excited we get when the kids learn to print - and we jump for joy!!!!
