oes your mom entertain all her friends and neighbors with embarrassing cute stories from your childhood? One of those stories involves me at age 4, and my mom walking past a flowerbed full of pansies which are called “Stiefmütterchen” in German – translated it would be “little stepmothers”. My mom asked me if I knew the name, and my reply was: “These are the mommies!”.
So when I came across the cute vintage pansies graphic at http://antiqueimages.blogspot.de, I instantly knew I would use it for this year’s Mother’s Day card. I printed it on cardstock, cut it out with my Silhouette, and attached it with dimensional glue dots:

Thanks to Carolyn for the great vintage graphics! I already downloaded a bunch for future use on cards. They make a nice addition to my vintage postcard scans.
Let’s see which anecdote (or ankedote, in my case) I’ll adapt next year :)
