Mother's Day

I thought it was about time to get some Mother's Day cards made. I was asked for a few last week at my choir and had nothing to offer, so I have been trying to remedy that. Some people prefer to have Mothering Sunday in the sentiment rather than Mother's Day, so I made a few of each.
This one uses the sketch from CAS(E) this sketch, the colours from Dynamic Duos .
                                                     
This one has the Mothering Sunday sentiment, which I made on the computer, I don't remember seeing a commercially available version.
This one uses the sketch from Paper Players and the theme of a circle from CASology
                     
I made the sentiment on the computer and used Pink Petticoat paper for the base. The hearts I believe are Memory Box and and I used a couple of the centres of the die cut to add to the circle.

Great selection Chrissie, I love the Mothering Sunday one, so elegant and such a pretty die. Charlie's first birthday falls on Mother's day so you know where I will be:) Can't believe where that year has gone!
