As Mother's Day is quickly approaching, I hope the card designs included in this newsletter have given you some ideas for your own creations. You can never go wrong with flowers; they are always beautiful both in card creations and in nature.
For further inspiration on creating cards with rubber-stamped floral images, check out this beautiful new publication, A Year of Flowers, by designer Melanie Muenchinger. Melanie also designed the stamp set, A Year of Flowers, used throughout this book. If you are interested in both of these items, they are also available as a package at Annie's Attic.
The last words in this issue are from the publication Say It With Style in honor of all of our special moms!
"The only thing better than having you for my mother is my children having you for their grandmother."
-- Unknown"Mothers hold their children's hands for a while ... their hearts, forever."
-- Unknown"Joy overflows and sees us through in a home that is blessed by a mom like you."
