Mother's Day card...

Mother Nature was so good to us yesterday...it was just gorgeous here! Our family did lots of yard work and lots of fun things. How could you pass up such a beautiful day.Now today it looks like it is going to rain, but that is ok. We need the rain to green up all the grass!


You will have to forgive my photos, as the room was so dark when I took these pictures. I am trying so hard to get ahead of the game with cards that I need to get done. Mother's Day is not until the middle of May but I when my LOTV stamps arrived last week I new the image I wanted to use. So I got out the distress inks and played with this adorable little stamp set!


Have a wonderful weekend....
