My first handmade card

Several months ago I decided that I was going to start making my own cards.  So, of course, I went to Michaels to buy lots of cute cardstock, stickers, punches, ribbon, washi tape, and tons more.

Then my sister's birthday came and went after I had purchased the cutest little "Sisters" ephemera.  Next, my father's Birthday came and went after I had purchased tiny little hammers and saws and "Father" ephemera.  I just couldn't let Mother's Day AND my mother's Birthday (her birthday's the 14th) slip by.  After purchasing some more flowers, stamps, inkpads and paper, I actually made a card.  I'm not kidding - I finished this card at 11:30 PM Saturday night.   We had to be at my parent's house by 10:30 Sunday morning so I was very pleased that I had gotten it finished so early!

Here's a link to a cute Father's Day card project!  I have about a month to start working on my father's card.     Go ahead - take a wild guess as to when I'll get started!
