Now it's Mom's Turn!

ETA: Here's the card! On the left I used my designer label punch to punch the sentiment "Relax...it's your day." I layered it onto more of the pink and brown latticework paper and trimmed it to the same shape. TFL!


Today is my mom's birthday!!!
My sister and I took her to tea yesterday and as always it was super scrump-deli-icious! And what a gorgeous day! Tonight the whole family is going to one of my mom's favorite restaurants - good old Olive Garden. She was just telling me last week that she had a yen for soup, salad and breadsticks, but we'll try to get her to eat more than that! (She's a tiny little thing!) And unbeknownst to her, my sister picked up and has been hiding her favorite cake! My dad always wants a homemade cake, but my mom loves bakery cake...something about the frosting.
Once again, I'll have to post the card I made for her later, but I think it'll be worth the wait. I gave it to her this morning, and when you see it, you'll see why I didn't wait until tonight like I normally would.
If you saw my Mother's Day card, you know how awesome I think my mom is. Please join me in wishing her a fantastic b-day - she totally deserves it!
