HAPPY FATHER'S DAY:sneak peek

 Here is  another sample card that I made and brought with me for my day of stampin' with the girls that I went to a couple weeks ago. I really liked this layout I saw it on a card some time ago and for the life of me can't remember where and by whom. I did make some minor adjustments to the layout and used new DSP and accessories. I just loving the new comfort cafe DSP and love the color combination of it this designer paper is perfect and very versatile, it can be used for a very famine card or masculine which is great when wanting to create those masculine cards for the men/boys in your life.

Happy Mother's Day!

A Mother loves right from the start.

She holds her baby close to her heart.

The bond that grows will never falter.

Her love is so strong it will never alter.

A Mother gives never ending Love.

She never feels that she has given enough.

For you she will always do her best.

Constantly working, there's no time to rest.

A Mother is there when things go wrong.

A hug and a kiss to help us along.

Always there when we need her near.

Gently wipes our eyes when we shed a tear.

So on this day shower your Mother with Love.

Gifts and presents are nice but that is not enough.

Give your Mother a day to have some peace of mind.

Be gentle, be good, be helpful, be kind.

Happy Mothers Day!
