2017 Mother's Day makes

In my last post I mentioned that I had spent time finishing projects to post to my Mum for Mother's Day. Since Mother's Day has now passed and Mum has received her gift I will post my creations. 

A couple of years ago Mum and I decided that I would make her a pair of nice cotton knit PJs each Mother's Day as it is often difficult, particularly where they live, to find something different. I purchased the fabric from Spotlight and used the same pattern for the ones I posted in April. I simply fell in love with the colour and could match a solid and a pattern to make a lovely set of PJs, suitable to wear all day.

Whenever there is an event requiring a card I dip into my scrapbook supplies and make one. The inspiration for this years Mother's Day card I found on Pinterest and is from Splitcoast Stampers.

 

Usually, the hardest part in card making for me is choosing a design and a colour theme. This time I wanted something architectural to go with the fabric theme. once I chose the patterned paper resembling a tile pattern the rest just came together.

I also included some herbal teas from T2 - Liquorice Legs and Mint Mix for Mum to try.
