Oh my goodness! It's almost May so you know what that means.  Mother’s Day is just around the corner.

For many of us, our own mothers may no longer be with us but that doesn’t mean the opportunity to honor mothers on this day ends. Maybe you have a daughter who’s now a mom herself, a sweet daughter-in-law raising little ones, or a friend who’s always had a motherly heart and a nurturing spirit. How special to reach out and say, “I see you. You’re doing an awesome job.”

This week on Ink and Inspirations, we’ll be sharing thoughtful and easy-to-make card and gift ideas using your paper crafting supplies. These projects are designed to help you bless the mothers and mother-figures in your life with something made from the heart.

Even if you’re new to paper crafting, I encourage you to follow along.  These ideas can be adapted to whatever you have on hand, and each one carries the same message of appreciation and love.

We’ll also have ideas for helping little ones (or grand-littles!) create gifts or cards for their own moms. Moms treasure something made with those little hands and big hearts!

So grab your patterned papers (from that stash!), use your favorite stamps, and join me this week as we make beautiful things to celebrate the special mothers in our lives.
