Thank you for all the lovely things you do......
Today in the Uk, it's Mothering Sunday. I want to say congratulations to the Mum's of 3 new babies that arrived within the past month. Keri-Anne and Mia, Toria and Alice and Shanon and her baby boy - born just yesterday. Sending much love to you all xoxox
These are the gifts i gave my mam Vickie, I made this canvas collage for her, you may recognise the style as its similar to one i did for Holly here.
I like combining old fabrics and papers with little accents. All in natural and pastel tones. I love to make things like this, and hopefully i can do some more when my energy level gets greater.
The butterflies on hearts were from Georgianna's free pdf file, that she featured at her blog in February. Thank you for these Georgi as they have worked really well, you know i like to have my butterfly touches in my art work.
Here is a photo of where Mam has it on the fireplace, the lovely angel candle was a gift from my friend Annie over the winter and i light it when we want to feel hope.
I also got a lavender filled pouch from the gorgeous Janey, through her website Sweet days and Roses...which i blogged about here and also here. Its made from french linen and has vintage fabric and lace accents, along with a sparkling stone and a rose.
and my brother Neill dropped these cakes off for Mam yesterday, which he made himself as he's been getting more into baking and cooking lately. They are bannana and choc chip and are delicious.
Happy Mother's day Mam, love you SO much, i know things are far from easy for you right now, and i wish i could do more to make life better, but we know what it's like to come through hard times, and i know we shall, its just going to take the time it needs, and i'm with you, always xoxoxoxoxoxox
