Getting Ready for Mother's Day

a little early this year!  I frequently get card requests from friends, family and co-workers and then I am left to craft right at the last minute for my own mother (and mother-in-law).  Not this year I say! I used the VSN challenges from last weekend to get started.

I know I am really early with St. Patrick's Day and Easter in between now and Mother's Day.  But honestly, I don't really give away or send card for either of those two holidays. 

Thanks for stopping by!
