Special Women

There are some very special women - mothers of men and women in the military.  I am finishing up some Mother's day cards and some cards for Moms so I can get them sent out to OWH this next week.  Here are four that I made the other day. Using two sketches, I made two cards with each sketch.
The first one using the sketch at Sketch Saturday:  

 You can see that I used yellow gingham Washi tape above and below the sentiment panel.  The flowers are cut out with a Cuttlebug die.  The centers are black pearls.

The second card is a slightly different in that I used an old piece from a  scrapbooking kit.

 The second sketch is at Stamplorations:

For the first card, I used Diane's Daydream daisy digis and the sentiment offered by Paula at OWH.  The LOVE is missing the "O" so I filled it in with a matching daisy. 

 The next card is using the same sketch, same digi sets minus the bee and after coloring the centers, I added brads.

All these cards are very simple and very mailable but very important to not only individuals in our military but also, and maybe especially, to their moms.
