Paint Party Friday - Mother's Day Card

For Paint Party Friday, I made a card for Mother's Day. I'll actually give this one to my mother. It's on cardstock paper (9" X 5 1/4").

i reallly like this-- it seems to signify the transition from winter (leafless tree) to spring (with all the buds). i'm sure your mother will be just thrilled!

Hand made cards are the best, this is lovely! My mom isn't here anymore, but I still have cards I made her when she was still with us.

We're never too grown to make our mom a card, and our mothers never think we are too grown either.

What a lovely painting.

A beautiful idea! Both my and my hubby's moms died on Mother's Day w/e. My kids are pretty minimal with the day. I'm not expecting much! This would be lovely!
