A Mothers Day Card for His Mother

What do you get the mother that has it all? And also lives too far to visit lol? You make her a card that will give her an everlasting impression. My hubby and I took a trip down to Joann's arts and crafts store in Las Vegas, and believe me, the Las Vegas crafts stores are like bored old lady heaven compared to the Orange County ones near my house. lol. There was a huge selection of everything and anything you can imagine, half the store is dedicated to just fabrics alone, 5 aisles to just card stock... just card stock alone. So I came to the perfect place. It was a good idea that I already had a theme in mind. His mother is an all American Kentucky derby fan with a big heart for horses (she raised her own horse too). So what better than to make a card with a Kentucky derby theme! If you know Kentucky derby, then you will know that the sole reason women go to the derby is for none other than the fashion... HATS HATS HATS. So this is the card that came to be after spending like 3 hours in 2 aisles lol. I'm very meticulous when it comes to my artwork, its the only perfection I have towards anything but the look on Nyle's face when he saw it, made it all worth it and hopefully his mom has the same reaction.

Inspired by the Kentucky derby hat.








Well, now all I have to do is whip up three more of these (my mother, my grandmother, and his grandmother) that are equally as impressive. Mothers day Oh Mothers Day... lol.
