Mom's are the best, right? And although we should be celebrating them on a daily basis, I'm so glad we have a specific day set aside to show the mother's in our lives just how much we really appreciate all that they do for us. Well, Mother's Day is just 3 days away which leaves just enough time for last minute gift ideas. In fact, this idea was so last minute last year (yes, I said last year) that I didn't have time to blog about it in time for Mother's Day 2011. But for 2012, I've got you covered (I'm just really on the ball for this year, right? Which is a good thing because I've been swamped drawing so many little darlings due to the large amount of Mother's Day portrait orders from the Daily Candy Kids coverage...Way to think ahead, that's what I say). 
With my free downloadable herringbone patterned envelopes and some custom
stamped monogram cards (easily made by you with a stamp or sponge using letter stencils - perhaps with some help from the kiddos?), you have the
perfect gift to let the mother's in your life know how much you love them.

Wishing you all the most wonderful Mother's Day weekend! And happy Mother's Day to all you beautiful mothers out there!

You probably don't remember me, but I met you at Melissa Esplin's house a few months ago and have thoroughly enjoyed reading your blog! You really have an eye for design and are so inspiring. I would love to get together with you sometime! (in Orem)
ReplyDeleteDiana, Of course I remember you! Yes, let's get together sometime soon! xo mer
DeleteHa! I didn't give you a gift at your shower, but I gave you black kitchen canisters stuffed with oreos at your reception. Now you know. I was so excited to be in the same room with you last night.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing ....
