To my surprise, these flowers were on my front steps when I got home.
It was like something out of the movies! So exciting to read the card and find out who thought this much about me to send flowers!

| Thanks for making my day Mildred! |
I brought three Mother's Day gifts for my daughters, Ms. N., Ms. E., and Ms. J. Rather than spend $15.00 or more on greeting cards, I decided to make my own and write my own greeting card message.
Last year I was in the $1.00 store and picked up this scrap booking book for a $1.00. :) Didn't know how I was going to use it at the time. Felt a little guilty for making the purchase. (Lord knows I don't need any more craft materials!)
Any how's ....
I dedided to write my Mother's Day greeting on the paper and paste it directly to the gift box!
 |
| I used my awl to score the paper' giving me a perfect line to cut. Sometimes using a pencil leaves an unslightly mark that's hard to get rid of. |
 |
I used decoupage to adhere the paper to the box.

I think they came out great!
