I am always a bit melancholy the weekend of Mother's Day. I lost my dearest mother on August 7, 2007. I can't believe I have lived 5 years without her. The first year, I used to call her phone number, hoping she would answer. I gave up crafting for a long time because Mom was my inspiration and she always loved anything I made for her. She kept cards and things I made from the time I was a little girl. I miss her so.
I made this bouquet for my mother-in-law who is a wonderful woman and I give her credit for raising an amazing son who has made me happy every day since I met him.
Happy Mother's Day EVERYONE!!

I love the bouquet Judi. Its wonderful. And I know how you feel - I lost my Mum Oct 2003 and still can't believe shes gone. Stranger but true, I too rang my Mums phone number several times over the years just to see - you know what I mean. Thanks for sharing your wonderful talent.
